Tell us a story!
Tell us your motorcycle story(s). I have a few.
Try to keep each one a short story.
I’ll start with this one.
We grew up with motorcycles around us. They were always someone else’s discard, but we had fun.
The very first one was a mini bike. You know the type, Briggs and Stratton engine with a centrifugal clutch...... clank..clank..clank. We rode the wheels off that thing around the Valley streets, until one day the clutch just wouldn’t pull anymore no matter how we “rigged” it. No money for a new one so it was then OUR discard.
