Worlds Fastest Indian

Here's a picture someone sent me in my email, the old racers will probably know who this is, I met him the first time in the late 1960's at Bonneville.

Mr. Bert Monroe, what an experience of a life time it was to meet that man. I must say that on the first meeting and looking at his race machine that I had never seen a more crudely put together thing in my life. But it did work.

Here he is taking a break from machining some of those home made pistons.

Hero is a big word

Hero is a big word to tack on someone, looking back, I think I fell short of the word a lot, but thanks anyway. You know I met so many racers in my career it hard to remember them all. There was so many that just wanted me to read their plugs, wanting advice, it was hard to keep up. I hope I helped them a little or a lot. The Fernandez part kind of rings a bell. But, I guess not loud enough.
