Unreal, Keith, I knew the "blue hair" legend (ha
ha), but didn't know this part. I happen to have
been a loyal reader of that mag in my previous
life, have read J.T. Nesbit, and am also familiar
with the Confederate motorcycle. I just can't
imagine you mixed up in that group. Amazing how
the lust for speed joins us all into a
brotherhood and breaks down social barriers that
would otherwise keep us separated for our entire
lives.
Cool story, Keith
