Found this cool clip and thought it was worth sharing.

Is this part of a full length motion picture??

Oh Thom!!!

I can't believe those hooligans! This clip has given me so many ideas.

1. Find a guy that climbs a ladder to safety and then knock it out from under him.

2. Spank a hotpants wearing, stroller pushing sexy mama.

3. Push shopping carts with my front tire towards panicky pedestrians.

4. When all is said and done, take off my helmet and fix my hair with very large comb then pass it too my girlfriend so she can do the same.

5. Change my screen name from wojo to Chopped Meat. Yeah baby!

There won't be much need for a comb from me. Was once - Not any more.

Yeah...laugh all ya want people, but I personally was struck my the REALISM that this film represents, showing us how some of our youth today are headed down that primrose path of JUVENILE DELINQUENCY...on MOTORCYCLES no less!!!(especially...the BRITISH kind!!!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Was that really a Jaguar? The way it cornered, I thought it might be a Jowett Jupiter. I remember ads for the Jupiter with photos taken from ground level to make it look bigger and more like a Jaguar.

If you find a movie that has a plot synopsis that includes the line "With the aid of a frog-worshipping cult, his satanic mother (Beryl Reid) and her shifty butler Shadwell (George Sanders), Tom makes a pact with the devil:" You have definately found something special....

Did the Triumphs of the late 60s early 70s have their throttle on the left side? One of the girls was waving her right hand wildly (obviously with the bike on a trailer) around the 6 minute mark... Hmm...

Well, I got the DVD today and just finished watching it. I'm glad I didn't pay more that $4.50 for this!

With names like Bertram, Hatchet, Chopped Meat (no kidding!), Gash, and Hinky, I should have known it would have been fairly cheesy. Very light affair. Plot could be summarized as 'if you believe hard enough, you CAN come back from the dead' Things don't always turn out like you expect though!

Still, had a lot of shots of old Triumphs racing around and that was good enough for me! I'll bring this to one of the rallies and we can all make fun of it!!

One item of note. You may remember George Sanders from many moons ago? Here's a reminder:



Well, this movie was made in 1971 and George committed suicide in 1972!!
Coincidence??

Well Phil,
I'm guessin' that being in THIS flick probably had NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with this sauve brit doin' himself in.

I don't know if you remember, but the gentleman was one of Zsa Zsa Gabor's many husbands....and I'm SURE that living with THAT crazy old b*tch would have driven ANYBODY to suicide, wouldn't ya say?!

(and I seem to recall that a few years back a certain Beverly Hills Motor Cop wasn't too crazy about her TOO!!!)
