    Ok, I just finished watching On Any Sunday again. I had forgotten how old it was.It amazes me just how little prtective gear they used to wear back then, but I remember shunning a helmet even when I was a kid in the 70s. My first helmet was a football helmet like some of the riders in the film. Has anyone seen On Any Sunday revisited or whatever the next version was? Was it any good? I didn't realize how long it had been since Steve McQueen died. Great flick if you haven't seen it in a while. My stepson who is 10 even liked it.

    I had been looking at Ghost Rider promo stufff since October of last year. I could not wait to see this movie and actors like Nicholas Cage & Peter Fonda only give the movie some credibility. I liked the movie and I see it as entertainment with some action and riding. I really like the movie for what it is supposed to be - simple entertainment. Now a movie like The Fastest Indian is a great movie that deals with reality and a more heart felt story. Both movies are great and make me want to ride but, Ghost Rider is a comic book movie that I really like. Other good motorcycle movies are "The Doctor, the Tornado and the Kentucky Kid" & "The Silver Dream Racer" (with the original ending). I have both of these movies on DVD and they are worth having. Especially in the winter months when I cannot ride.

    What's the Silver Dream Racer? I have seen The Doctor, the Tornado and the Kentucky Kid and I enjoyed it.... I also saw the other moto gp documentary before it. It was more about biaggi and rossi. It was pretty good, too.

    I've got one no one's mentioned and most have probably never heard of it. "Harley Davidson and The Marlboro Man" , kinda strange and difficult to get into but great movie none the less IMO. But you know what they say about opinions.

    I was wondering when someone was going to bring that one up, here is a old one that I doubt very many people have seen, it's called "Little Foss and Big Halsey", anybody remember that one...

    Wild hogs looks good, some scenes in Ghost Rider were cool but the dialoge was kind of lame, and he doesnt really have to struggle to win or anything, all he has to do is wait for the bad guys to find him and then touch them. I liked spiderman better.
    Was 55 on saturday in RI, got out for 200 miles...

    I saw it a while ago, great movie, its got to be good as having anything to do with bikes.

    Not as good as expected but well worth seeing, some good special effects.

    Cage seems to be doing alot of re makes lately, he's also good in Wickerman.

    Ghostrider doesn't do anything for me.

    I prefer to watch Isle of Man TT races.
