Re: Bonneville Salt Flats racing 2021
Being on the salt is an experience for sure.
It's even better when there are a bunch of racing motorcycles running wide open.

Re: Bonneville Salt Flats racing 2021
Wife and I were just there as spectators, we didn't go to race.
However, we did get up to 95 just cruising on the access road
heading out to the pits.
Sunrise on the salt, lawn chairs and beer.

Lady set a record for a 1800 Wing with a sidecar of 131 something. Think I read it had a turbo.

Re: Bonneville Salt Flats racing 2021
I know the bike is going to be there at the end of the month. I am pretty sure he has a new driver though.
I saw a post earlier that a 100 (yes one hundred) CC bike hit 131 mph out there. That is incredible!

Re: Bonneville Salt Flats racing 2021
Cool!
I've seen pics and read about that bike here on this forum,
it will be neat to see it in person.
I'm not on facebook.
