I've always loved E.K....I remember watching the t.v. like a hawk when I was a little kid, the nights of his jumps...and the crowd going wild when he came out of his motor home as he jumped on his bike. How can you not have some degree of respect for someone that jumps a 600lb bike, with next to no suspension, at the speeds and distances he did?.
I remember him saying in an interview once...."if you don't have your head on straight when you approach that ramp...you better be man enough to face the consequences!"...and he showed us time and time again, that he was more than man enough, in a very painful way.
Excuse me, ma'am...but you've got extremely nice legs!!!...what time do they open???                                                                                                               https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8tCgN3aryQ
