Good to see Colin in there. Colin Edwards got his start at K.S. Cycle works in Katy. I used to work there. My ex-boss Kevin built his early motors. The pic of him on the YZR750 thats white and has purple pink, was built by Kevin and has a butt load of Yamaha hard racing parts in it. Kevin kept that bike and continued working for Colin and his dad until Vance & Hines took over.
Colin has a place in Conroe and an XR100 track we used to run on.
Its a bit surreal being chased around the track and passed by a guy, then see him pull off his helmet when he sits down beside you, to realize, its Ben Spies lol. Ben is a lot taller than I thought he was. He never once put his foot down flat tracking that dusty track, amazing balance. I just couldnt hang with him even on XR100s.
Ben and Colin are tall as hell, you dont realize it until hes standing beside you.
Remember, don't work on your bike so much you never ride it.
