quote: Two-time 500cc World Champion Freddie Spencer will return to the site of his first premier-class Grand Prix victory - the mighty Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium - to ride a replica of his 1980-81 Honda CB750 Superbike in the Bikers' Classics event June 29-July 1.
Me thinks we need to petition American Honda to do the same here in the states at a few AMA SBK races.

Fast Freddy was riding a german team d,or special this weekend at Spa.
I have asked him how the bike was riding and he told me that it was great fun to ride with the bike.
He missed the power of his old race bike but the feeling was the same he told me with a smile.

Later that day all riders were on the normal road riding the old 14 km long circuit.
I made this photo from Freddy when he was passing me, you can see my RB in front of waving Spencer.

Ben, was that one of our site members at the 3:10 mark talking to Freddie?
Just curious. It would have been a huge thrill for me. |
