Hey Listers, this is just a quick announcement that  Don Pearsall, my List-Admin partner (now both of us retired) has just returned  from El Mirage after running his 500hp Suzuki at 229.844mph beating the old  record of 217mph that stood for 7 years.  Whahooo!

Good Lord...news from the dry lakes! Thanks for the update, Deke.

Congrats, Don. Is this a lay-down style, or enclosed/streamlined bike?

Sorry for the off-topic. Hope the admins don't kick  me off!

Lynn, the bike is a sit-on bike, just like a normal one, but much  modified for speed. Here is a pic.

I thought we are supposed to slow down with age??? 

Guess not!!!



When I took my father to Oshkosh for his 50th

anniversary, he thought he was too old to go.  But

then he saw people there, older than him, talking

about buying a kit plane to build.  Never too old to

live.  Don't make excuses, make plans.
