What a guy and who gives a fuck!!!!
I joined the club back in 88 (old timer!!!!!)
My first bike was Harley chopper which cost 40000:-.I bought it from a guy that rode with Sofia Hogs.
Remember it like it was yesterday. I took one step at a time into their clubhouse; Uhoo Uhoo is there
anybody at home. Felt as big and courages as a child going to the dentist!!
But I lived to tell the tale, they didn’t eat me alive!!!
My next bike was /is a original Harley from 69 which put me back 57.500:- and I have along
standing project with a extreme over forks with a shovel engine which I’ll put together one day.
Back in 94 I fought a battle with a Dodge Ram van. The van won! What I got for my trouble was
3 cracked vertebrae and no feeling in my left heel. So now I’m the dog with the limp.
While I was rehabilitating from the crash and no bike to ride on I started wheelchair racing.
This led on to other dangerous sports for handicapped. So I am the first person to do a Swedish
classic in a wheelchair.
This is made up of at least 5 different events like Lidingö loppet (cross country race) Stockholm marathon,
Vansbro swim, Vättern runt (long distance bicycle race) and Vasa loppet (ski race, long distance)
which has to be done in a twelve month period.
From this I went on to downhill wheelchair racing. The wheelchair is of a special sort, which resembles
a mountain bike.
I competed for Sweden in the States a couple of times in this event. But as time wore on my longing
to get back on the bike became more and more, which I finally did and never regret that day.
So maybe we will meet on the road one who knows but always remember that cars are hard very hard!!!!!
