1. What level of rider was McQueen?
2. Was he cool?
Wonder if did that just for free bikes?
I respect certain people, but I don't have heroes.
Like the word "Class", "hero" is used - overused - too much in American culture.
1. What level rider was McQueen?
Pit Row
Short story and very much true.
I was in a Santiago Hotel Lobby having breakfast ...there was 4 of us and one was Mr Smith. We got talking about Mr Smith's unique history in our sport and all had a great time. After a short pause I looked over at Mr Smith and told him that he was not my hero, my hero was Mr McQueen. Mr Smith smiled and said that his hero was also Mr McQueen
Mr Smith then shared countless Steve McQueen stories......way cool.

There are no heros in life.
Just...grow up, will you?
Cool interview with Malcolm Smith in recent AMA mag or Cycle News, I forget -
anyway, talking about ON ANY SUNDAY - they wanted to ride on the beach that sits
on Camp Pendleton - supposedly there was no way to make it happen
until ol' Bullitt made the call to the base commander...
...................made it happen...
* Steve McQueen never made it out with my mom.
I think.
Never actually jumped a fence. Ran into a few and did a lot of jumping but never forgot him.

Steve McQueen played Frank Bullitt in a classic car-chase flick - think it was 1968...
I love the story of the movie studios putting a clause in one of his contracts for a film that he could not race dirt bikes....so he started racing cars!
