| Wall of Death
Meet this lady Cookie Crum at a HOG chapter meeting last week and she is the real deal. Very interesting to listen to and talk to about her history and the years of riding the wall of death. They have set it up at the dealership for the 4th of July weekend and Cookie Crum (her real name) will be there.
Check out the article. Meet Cookie Crum, 'Queen of the Hell Drivers' - Oregonlive.com

Went and watched the Wall of death show today, way cool. These guys ride a vintage 32 Indian inside this area that is like a giant wooden barrel with the top cut off. Simply amazing and they get two guys at a time up there.
There are now only 3 of these operating in the USA now so if you ever get a chance to go see it do it, its well worth it.

OK, last post for this thread, here are a couple of pics, some are a little blurry as they were moving faster than the camera could click the photo.

Looks like a good time. If I read right that lady is 77 years old? Damn. I hope I able to just ride the bike down a straight flat street at that age. |
