  • Just for the record, I created this channel and the posts on behalf of my Dad, Bobby Sirkegian, he wouldn't do this himself, but I am very proud of my Dad and wanted to make sure that this clip of him is reaching the world. There is so much to tell, in April, he will be presenting a posthumous Hall of Fame award to his father, boardtrack pioneer, Bob Sirkegian and I am hoping that he himself will join Grandpa in the Hall of Fame class of 13!

  • @downallyourstreets

    Nice attitude, get out and ride a bike you will feel better. Mini van blues? LOL!

  • @441rider Wow! Bet you didn't brag much at 15, either!?!

  • Wow! 15! LOL! I was on a BSA no plate no insurance no license for 3 months at 15 and I swear every bike was faster when I was that size. When I bought that B50 I pulled out onto highway spinning the dry rear wheel for 10-20 shifts before looking back and realizing the power it had and lack of weight I had to keep it on the road. Was a "this bike is broke the thing won't accelerate!" Ah youth. Thanks for posting this excerpt, fast run.
