I heard about
Dirt Quake from a
friend at the last minute this weekend. I sure am glad I did. I dragged Flathead Rob along, the short ride we took to get there was perfect, the weather was great and the event was a ton of fun. Rob's comment that "This must be about close as you can come to the feel/spirit of a 40's motorcycle rally" summed it up well. We had a great time and met some really cool people. I hope it happens again.

This shift linkage was slick. Kit or home built? I don't know. Nicely built bike though. |
|
I was told this bike's name is Lipstick. The rider was shy about thrashing it on the track! |
|
This bike is very close to Flathead Rob's first bike. The carb is inside that bump in the right side case. |

Bixby Moto Sidecar |

This bike was the easy crowd favorite. It was just flying! Quite the showmen too. |
|
I was pretty fond of this bike. The race slick didn't keep it from seeing a little flat track carving |
|
This guy was really hanging it out on the track |
|
Nothing says 70's like a molded Zig Zag man. |

Loved these turned fork legs |
Sadly I didn't have the means to shoot any video. Above is some video one of the
Seattle Rockers contributors posted.
We need to be there next time with a
WR replica.
