Teammate in HS got on a crotch rocket for the first time, made it 100 yards, went off the road and into an oak. Undertaker did a hell of a job putting him back together for an open-casket funeral. If it has two wheels, it exceeds my acceptable level of risk.

I stepped off of one at 120 mph on the track. I had a few get-offs at the track. On the street. Only had one accident. Hit a cow on a back country road doing 80+ mph at night. Missed the first 2 cows and didn't see the 3rd one until I hit it. The cows had broken through a fence and was running free on the road. The farmer paid for everything.

I lost 1 friend on the street with a bike. But lost a lot more behind the wheel. The one summer. I went to 22 funerals.

And when it hit 7500, you better hold on. That TZ must have been fun.

It was. It was tiny. Under 200 lbs, and made about 80 HP. Easy to work on. In practice. You was always playing around with the jetting. For the race. You hoped that you got it right. If not. It would either load up, or seize up at speed. Bought spark plugs by the case. Mixed the oil and gas together. Always used Castrol Bean oil. That's one smell that I will never forget. A 2 stroke burning bean oil.

Hung out with some young'ins tonight. Didn't make me feel as young as I'd hoped. Had a good time and outlasted everyone
