Dude, that must have been so cool!

I dreamt the other night that somtime in the future some boffins invented a telecommunications device that could also capture still images and like record in like real time motion stuff like video so we could save like events like you saw today like. Now that would be cool so you could like share your experiences with others like

I take it you were at motorama, farm show complex? Always love to see Barry ride. Really good dude to, still fast as hell. I was gonna go, but just couldn't get motivated. I thought about letting my boy race there, but it's so expensive. Anyway hope all the racing was cool.

Ya, Motorama. The track wasn't as much of a meat grinder as I've seen in the past. the big double is in the middle now like a regular arenacross, not along the stands. Carsten's style is so ragged, but he still hauls the mail pretty well. It was cool to see those old dudes still hanging tough with the young guns.

Mad Mike, curiously, wasn't jumping jack.

Ya man, I seen Barry at the amsoil arenacross in Wilkes-barre, PA. On Feb.9 he was still hauling then. I remember in the late 80s when he was a top 10 guy in sx and mx nationals, also into the 90s. I used to see him at a lot of local tracks in D-6. Shot the shit with him, back in the day at hurricane hills, in Clifford PA. Really cool guy, said hi to him at arenacross, he was very outgoing still. Than 1 time at evansville mx, in berwick,PA, back in the 90s, they combined 25A-B, I was a B rider who didn't do bad. I remember Barry and dog Boyeson going at it really hard that day. Those 2 past me so fast my head spin around. NO SHIT!!!!!! Anyway seeing those kind of dudes brings back great youthful memories. Now I still enjoy the sport with my son, who races 65s and 85s. I'm absolutely loving it again. Great times, great people, great sport.

I knew Barry back in 1978 or so, when he was riding 80's - we both lived in Sylvan Lakes.
