Good video! Saw Charlie, Me, my '58 and the "Yellow Brick" near the end. ;-)

It is too bad that this place has become commercialized. It once was quiet and easy to get to.

The tricycle is my favorite 51s

What's that at 0:39?

Is that a high speed kazoo?

[sbeer6er]

wow 140mph with a 50cc, cool!

If you jump into the middle of a dust devil you can have fun. You have to run with them. Getting inside can be dirty. If they are small your body filling the hole will make them collapse. It's fun.

I really enjoyed your low-key vid.

Felt like I was there.

Good video. That 50cc liner is much faster than what it looks like. Check out Bonneville Stories Part VII and see a full story on it. I t tops 150mph on the Bonneville Salt Slats

50cc hitting 140mph, thats just rad!

and that corvair is intimidating for something that ralph nader took off the road 50 years ago for exploding.

that black bike is just sick!
