OT: Road Bikes In Dirt, Yep, Still OT

[Burnette]

This popped up yesterday and I just wanted to share.

It's dangerous, it's funny, it's scary, it's a riot, they got hurt, they had fun.

HA....that's pretty good. I don't think I'll see my old man on his Dyna Wide Glide out there anytime soon.

Props to a lot of those riders handling skills.......

Shared it with my pops........thanks ;)

Just makes me think what I must look like lining up for cyclocross.

The guys with the Nazi helmets crash a lot.

The Sportsters were the only ones that had a chance of getting around that track with a little speed.

Video wouldn't play for me. I'm sure the street bikes are entertaining in their way. But, the real guys, the big flat tracks are one of the greatest shows in motorsports. So many possible lines around those corners, so many strategies, it's like Keirin with a hundred more horsepower. Great stuff.

It is like a bad boxing match up. I kept thinking: “just stay down."

I have ridden that race a few times. I rode speedway there for years and that race was once a year on OC Harley night. It was fun. Rented a Sportster once from the sponsoring dealer and raced it. They had no idea until the flag dropped. :banana:
Glad to see Brad Oxley is still starting races. He was fast when he raced.
