My Speedy "Clyde" on a ride to Valley of Fire in NV>



The shot of the 10 year old daughter of my Pastor proudly displaying her first target. She had never shot a gun in her life. I spent 20 mins with her and my 40 year old Smith Revolver and at the completion she was able to hit the 12" steel "gong" 6 our of six times at 50 feet.

I loaded down the .38 Special rounds to podwer puffs that had little kick and a very quiet report. That 586 is capable of firing a .357 MAGNUM ROUND AT 1600 FEET PER SECOND and when that is done you will know the difference on both ends.
When the Pastor sent via email this photo to his relatives in England.....THEY WERE AGHAST AND SOME UPSET.

The black bike is a photo of a 1979 Bonneville Special {not mine but a duplicate of mine} which I bought with 400 miles on it from a degenerate gambler who begged me for $500 of the loan sharks would kill him. This was in 1980 and I believed him. However I insisted that he produce a signed title dated for a month later, I would get the bike in a month if he did not repay the loan. He garaged the bike at a mutual friends business who was privy to the deal. We drew up the loan agreement and crossed all the T's etc. He was found DOA 2 weeks later in Jamica Bay and I had a nearly new bike.

I rode that thing like I stole it and three years later in a weak moment I sold it and I have regretted it ever since. It would always start...ran great but was very light and quite the handfull at anything above 60 MPH but for running around town and such it was wonderful.
