1. You remember falling over at a stop sign when your bell bottoms went over the kickstart lever and you couldn't get your foot off the peg.

2. You know the first line of the theme song to "Then Came Bronson".

You can remember the shift pattern on a Hodaka Super Rat (1 up, 4 down) or to let out the clutch on a old Yamaha only to go backwards !!

The Thursday before the SX finals you've got tickets to see Gordon Lightfoot at the Orleans and you're really happy about it. :D

Sure hope he hasn't added Rap to his gig.

I can see her lookin’ fast in her faded jeans
She’s a hard lovin’ woman, got me feelin’ mean
Sometimes I think it’s a shame
When I get feelin’ better when I’m feelin’ no pain
