Riding history: "I started riding motorcycles in 1974 as an alternative to racing sports cars,
hoping I could get the same excitement seven days a week. I
did, but I didn't last very long on
the street. The tickets started piling up, so my' friends suggested I
go road racing. We rented the
Summit Point Race Track in
West Virginia for a day and I've
been racing ever since. Concurrently, my business .goals changed
to the motorcycle industry, which
led me to exciting positions with
the Motorcycle U.S.A. Show,
Motorcycle Dealernews, Micronics, and Lockhart."
Racing history: '.'In my first
year of road'racing, I campaigned a 550cc Honda to a class
championship by winning 10 out
of 11 sprint races. I moved to
California and received sponsorship from many endurance teams
and from Mr. Jags for sprint
rides. Winning with the Mr. Jags
Norton against the bjg four-cylinder Japanese bikes in '79 through,
'82 was a lot of fun. The past
Magazine: "MOTORCYCLIST
is a very balanced str~et riding!
road racing publication with
great editorial commentary, new
model road tests, product evaluations, and in-depth competition
coverage. They should be commended for their many articles
relating to riding safety and 'how
to' begin road racing. On the
lighter side, .there's 'The Last
Page.' It's always slightly off-thewall and very entertaining. I have
to admit that 'The Last Page' is
what I read first."
