A sad day for all of us. You will be missed Bruce. Corky Carroll is writing a multi part story about The Endless Summer in the Orange County Register if you are interested. —Happy Sunsets! |

The Endless Summer is one of my alltime favorite films. I can watch it anytime and be transfixed. Both my kids like it too. It's just timeless. |

Endless Summer was a big deal back in the day, it made me want to move to California as well. I'll still watch it or parts of it when it comes on. |

Least we not forget "On Any Sunday." Being an avid dirt bike rider and a dabbler in Surf Guitar, both movies have been sources of great inspiration to me for as long as I can remember, and have VHS and DVD copies of each. I bought my first real dirt bike, a Swedish built Husqvarna after seeing that movie for the first time. Wish I still had it.

Several years back, in the pits at the Atlanta Super Cross, someone had a perfectly restored 1973 Husky 125WR sitting in the back of a pickup truck over where the vintage MX bikes were on display. Most beautiful dirt bike ever made...... I kept looking to see who's it might be and maybe, just maybe.........score it, but I never could figure out who the owner was. Haven't seen it in the last several Super Crosses. Best believe I'll keep on the hunt. Atlant is coming, first weekend in March. ed —Traditional........speak softly and play through a big blonde amp.
