The viking funeral, one last hurrah nature of running these rare, valuable, pre-war Indians and Harley-Davidsons is subversive. It’s a lot like lighting your cigar with a $100, only more expensive and more fun to do.
Rob raced the Monster Moto 80cc mini bike, and despite our best tuning efforts could not make it to the top of the hill without running the last few feet. Still a great time out there.
I just wrote this story for RideApart, but had a bunch of pictures I didn’t use and didn’t want to go to waste.
I went to the opening of the new Harley vs Indian exhibit at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles on Thursday March 2nd, 2017. Here’s a sampling of what I saw. Words and such will be on RideApart shortly.

Spotted this old timer still hauling the something up and over the Sepulveda Pass last week. He wasn’t moving very fast, but then none of us were in the morning traffic.
