A look at the reaview mirror, a puff of cigarette and go.

Ajs

If the the word 'classic' could express the concept in a motorcycle.
The weight of time seems to have no effect on the lines of certain motorcycles, the power of the classic style. Are you agree?

The Mild One

Steve McQueen, nell'arco della sua carriera cinematografica, è stato in accesa rivalità con alcuni attori dell'epoca, dando vita a numerosi e divertenti 'scontri' con molti volti noti della Hollywood di quegli anni.

Steve, grande appassionato e possessore di vari modelli di moto, fece scrivere sul fianco di una delle sue, 'The Mild One' (quello tranquillo) nel chiaro intento di sbeffeggiare Marlon Brando, che nel 1953 aveva interperato The Wild One (quello selvaggio) nel ruolo di Jonnhy Strabler.

La realtà dei fatti era ben diversa. Steve McQueen, come sapevano gli amici, le fidanzate ed i registi, non era affatto un tipo tranquillo (da Steve McQueen - La biografia di C. Sandford)

Norton #15

 
Alcuni post non hanno bisogno di molte parole.
La prima reazione fisica che si ha, in genere, di fronte a bellezze come questa, sono le labbra che si socchiudono e gli occhi che si aprono vistosamente come per accogliere tutta la poesia del momento.
Eh si, è proprio lei, Her Majesty Norton.
