Ärende: FAST INDIANS  10209
===========================
 -=> Quoting Dave Drum to Glen Jamieson <=-

 GJ> Last week I visited Invercargill, the home of the late Burt Munro,
 GJ> of "Fastest Indian" fame.  You may recall that he achieved a world
 GJ> record speed of 178.97mph in 1962 at Bonneville, with his greatly
 GJ> modified Indian, bored out to 850cc.  In 1967 he managed 183.58mph,
 GJ> with it bored out to 950cc.  Loss of control on that run resulted in
 GJ> him having to put the bike down at about 190 mph, but he survived.

 DD> Since my first motorcycle was an Indian Chief (1946 model) bought at
 DD> the age of fourteen and since I was doing motorcycle racing at the time
 DD> and  I used to visit Sammy Pierce's motorcycle store in San Gabriel, 
 DD> California -- since Sam was the last advocate of racing Indian Scouts
 DD> on the dirt tracks of the nation. I met Burt Munro there in 1966 and
 DD> saw  his streamliner uncrated after helping wrestle it off the back of
 DD> the  truck which delivered it from the harbour at San Pedro.

That would have been a great experience for young Dave Drum!

 DD> So, I bought and watched the DVD, starring Anthony Hopkins with great 
 DD> interest. And immediately turned to my brother saying, "I don't
 DD> remember any of that stuff." As it turns out the Bonneville portion of
 DD> the trip  not being as I remember and the lack of mention of Sammy
 DD> Pierce and the  big part he played in Burt's records were because the
 DD> events depicted  took place on his first trip in 1962. Burt was a neat
 DD> guy. 

His memory is certainly kept alive in his home town of Invercargill.
I will attempt to send you some pics I took in the museum there.  I
was taken to Oreti Beach, where Burt's first speed trials took place.
It is several km long, and quite wide.  These days there are usually
dozens of cars parked on it while families go swimming, and there is a
Speed Limit 30 km/h sign on the entry road.
