Vintage Pics of the Day

When I was living at (Harley Dealer) Harry Molenaar’s racetrack. Harry told me Buzz was coming by so let him in. Buzz was coming to give Harry a ride on that. It wasn’t worth it to me to walk 25 feet to get a better look at that pile of junk.

That is one well thought out 'pile of junk' i'd say. 'Wild Bill' Gelbke worked for McDonnell Douglas designing missile Guidance systems, and if you look into some of the design of this freak of a...Motorcycle, you'll see some really interesting features. Plus, it wasn't just a gimmick flash in the pan, Gelbke racked up many miles on Roadog. Anyway, for what it's worth, i always dug the Roadog for it's American ingenuity and passion.

It made enough of an impression, BNSONS,..

That you recount it to this day.

That makes it art, no matter what.

I believe that's Roadog, Buzz & a friend tried to ride it shortly after Buzz acquired it, ran it over a curb & had to hire a crane to get it back on the trailer. Now owned by Wheels Through Time, apparently Matt has had some success with riding it.
