Great seat to watch them in the days before on board cameras though
Sweet, I probably want your autograph. Was that one FIM race the only Laguna GP that had 500, 250 and 125? What was that, '93?

I make a bad joke out of riding a TZ125 and a vintage 250 in AHRMA for a few years until I realized I couldn't afford it, but it was just kid stuff compared to what you're talking about. Respect!
