Now, here's the thing about Rich Ostrander - he's still just as much fun as he was at 16! I love hanging out with the guy, he's a straight shooter and has great stories. We first met when he was riding his '28 Indian Scout, I was on my '26 Norton, and we were dicing it up on Trinity Road outside Glen Ellen. Very few people scratch on their 20's machines - Rich rocks!
I'm with Skippy on this one. Thanks for sharing Mr. Ostrander and thanks for posting Max.
Remember, life is in the living there of. Thanks Max from the grown ass man. P.S. Had more fun than the photos show.
looks pretty fun to me. i will get em back in the mail as soon as the drool stops.
The second picture is 100% perfect. Like this blog. Thanks
