Pretty funny. Wonder if they actually rode, or just did it for the photo?

At first glance, I thought it was a photo of Blake and Tyler Wharton.

Always has.

I need to dig around in some of my old photo archives. I ran into Eddie while doing an interview with Sammy Hagar years ago about a mountain bike line that he was doing at the time (rebadged Gary Fisher bikes called Red Rockers). He came over to Sammy's house, retuned Sammy's guitar, and just started wailing. Good times...and it took about a week for my jaw to recover from hitting the floor. Smile

Makes me think that the 70's really were the heyday of moto heck even my mom had a bike back then. I don't think that they rode in the dirt since they came from the "mean streets"

Yep! my little moto mom had a Hodaka Dirt Squirt, and for xmas we got her a cool plastic tank and fenders to replace the chrome stockers, that thing was trick Cool

My dad was a core Husky guy, he even had one of those 390 automatics!

Good times! family riding trips every weekend, one i will never forget is taking 14 people to Hollister Hills in the winter pouring rain and we forgot 1 very important thing...sleeping bags!! I think we had like 5 bads total lol
