On Any Sunday

CC Cowboy · June 29th, 2009, 06:01 PM

This is required for anyone who rides. It takes an hour and a half so I don't want to see anyone on here for that length of time.

Link on Hulu.

There will be a test!

DerTeufel · June 29th, 2009, 06:05 PM

I've watched that many times..should be mandatory for anyone on two wheels. It's wild to see how far road racing has evolved.

komohana · June 29th, 2009, 06:21 PM

it IS worth watching..

It is definetly worth watching. Bikes and gear have come a long way since then.

gitoy · June 29th, 2009, 08:07 PM

hey cc...i am back after 5 minutes, just wanted to say thank you for the link... i will be feverishly taking notes...pop quiz scares me so you can imagine what a test does

Daeldren · June 29th, 2009, 08:28 PM

I also enjoyed Faster and the sequel The Doctor, The tornado, and the Kentucky Kid. However those documentaries were on MotoGP specifically.

when in doubt the answer is Malcolm Smith

kkim · June 29th, 2009, 10:18 PM

mahalo, CC. just got through watching it again after not seeing it for years... love that movie.

CC Cowboy · June 30th, 2009, 05:36 AM

OK, first question:

On Mert Lawwill bike, which side was the shifter on?

Where was the race in which Steve McQueen participated? On what kind of bike did he ride? and what company named a motorcycle after this race?

What is your favorite bike in the movie?

Alex · June 30th, 2009, 05:57 AM

Mert lives a few houses down from a guy I ride with. Neat guy! And nice guy, as well. I've met him a few times, here he is with Annie when he was first roling out that Street Tracker of his a few years back, and giving a demo at the Candy Store.

Strider · June 30th, 2009, 06:22 AM

Never seen this before, very interesting....thanks

DerTeufel · June 30th, 2009, 06:23 AM

On Mert Lawwill bike, which side was the shifter on? Right side

Where was the race in which Steve McQueen participated? Lake Elsinore, California On what kind of bike did he ride? Husqvarna and what company named a motorcycle after this race? Honda-the CR Elsinore
.

CC Cowboy · June 30th, 2009, 06:49 AM

Good job Aaron.

Now the tough bonus question;

Why was Malcolm Smith always smiling?

DerTeufel · June 30th, 2009, 06:51 AM

Because he LOVED riding!! Hell, he went to the ISDT on his dime!

CC Cowboy · June 30th, 2009, 06:59 AM

That was too easy.

That's why I'm always smiling and my ass never hurts (no gay jokes) while riding.

kkim · June 30th, 2009, 03:32 PM

okay... what kind of bike (model) was Mert riding in the ending beach scene?

CC Cowboy · June 30th, 2009, 04:41 PM

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess CZ (however the tank looks like a Harley).

kkim · June 30th, 2009, 05:43 PM

well, he was sponsored by Harley, which is why the bike was black (to look like one) but I'm not exactly sure what it was. Could it have been on of those 350 Rapidos they were selling back then or was it another brand of bike (like CZ) painted black so you couldn't tell what it was?

Alex, next time you see him, can you ask?

BlueRaven · June 30th, 2009, 07:07 PM

What up with this error message:

We're sorry, currently our video library can only be streamed within the United States.

And i thought we were brothers living next to each other.

OldGuy · June 30th, 2009, 08:18 PM

That is great - I want to watch the whole thing but I'm concerned about Alex Baldwin sticking his finger in my ear to see if my brain is ready to eat yet

lockie · June 30th, 2009, 08:28 PM

BR...

The Hulu site in the US won't accept requests from IP addresses in Canada. It's got to do with copyright laws. Canadian copyright laws are not as strict for the video/film makers advantage and so many websites in the States fear legal issues and will not feed to Canadians.

You can download the film using the bitorrent file sharing system. Also I found a proxy program for my Mac that connects me to the Internet via an American server and so those US sites like HULU think I'm in the US.

I can certainly try! We've actually run into him a few times at MotoGP at Laguna, and perhaps we will this weekend once again...

Cedilla · July 1st, 2009, 12:13 AM

I just got through watching this, I enjoyed it. If that movie doesn't make you want to get out and ride, i don't know what will.

muffinman · July 1st, 2009, 12:26 AM

Thanks for the link Oscar... never saw/heard of this until now.. thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

All men are equal, but some are more equal than others. (George, kinda)

CC Cowboy · July 1st, 2009, 12:28 PM

Raven, midnight showing at my house (pajama party and sleepover too, since you live so far away).

You what really caught my eye in that video. Is when that mechanic did a quick u-turn in the pits pushing that repsol honda. They gotta be light as hell, with one low center of gravity. Not like any street bike........

CC Cowboy · July 2nd, 2009, 08:25 AM

I watched the movie again and noticed that the beginning of the road race part was the old track at Loudon. That track was so much fun and yet so dangerous.

backinthesaddleagain · July 8th, 2009, 08:09 PM

Watched this tonight for first time in years. anyone know who the little kid is wheelying the mini bike in the first minute or tow?

hint - he has made a living at mx, supermoto and indy cars.

kkim · July 8th, 2009, 08:11 PM

That's Jeff Ward?

When he was just 10 he had a bit part in the classic movie “On Any Sunday,” doing a long wheelie on his little Honda 50.

kkim · July 8th, 2009, 08:22 PM

Wow... I didn't know that.

backinthesaddleagain · July 8th, 2009, 08:32 PM

i think i heard it on the tv show "the motocross files" sometime back. he was probably the first factory honda (or any factory) sponsored child.

ARF07 · July 13th, 2009, 06:51 PM

Man, I just watched that for the first time and it was really cool. It made me feel so young though..that was made a good 10-15 years before I was even born! Thanks for the link CC.

ps. Who's Steve McQueen?

Steve McQueen was some Porsche guy in the movie LeMans, other than that I think he stayed in the cooler.
