[Ronald Betts]

Most Excellent Dan. I had to watch it several times and I'll probably watch 
it again later. That was some serious old eye candy. Thank's for sharing !

I've learned that I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it!

>spectacular location and event it is.

>Perhaps my favorite bike in the show was a 1938 Velocette KTT junior, 
>because of its especially wonderful back story. The bike was raced 
>successfully in Europe by a privateer from France, including at the Isle of 
>Mann TT. After the bike's retirement, it ultimately became the property of 
>a European collector. For many years the original racer's daughter, Annie, 
>and her family tried to find the bike, with the hope of reacquiring their 
>father's machine.
>
>Once they finally found it, the collector was not interested in parting 
>with it. However, that collector recently passed away and his heirs made a 
>point of selling the bike back to the racer's family. With just a few weeks 
>to get it sorted before the Legends show, Annie's son made the Velo run 
>again while leaving it in its original condition. They brought the bike all 
>the way from France to share it with us and honor their beloved patriarch. 
>Annie even had her Dad's original helmet with the bike.
>
>If that doesn't capture the romance of motorcycling, I don't know what 
>does.
>
>I hope you enjoy the show.
