Recently I was invited to a Bikes and Burgers Charity Event in SoCal by my buddy Tom White.<\/p>\n

\"Jim<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019d run into each other a couple years ago at the Concourse D\u2019elegance Motorcycle show in Del Mar California but I first met Tom and his twin brother Dan at an AMA District 37 TT Scrambles race at Huntington Beach Speedway back-in-the-day. To me, a 12-year-old kid, they were impressive: a couple of cool, classy, good looking guys who raced dirt bikes! They had their own truck and two beautifully prepared Bultaco “boat tail” Pursang TT bikes. They even had their own t-shirts with a tag line “Bultaco’s are Best.”<\/p>\n

I\u2019m so glad I was able to reconnect with Tom and attend the Bikes and Burgers event at Tom\u2019s Early Years of Motocross Museum<\/a>. The event was not only held in an amazing place, it was a fundraiser for the High Hopes Head Injury Program.<\/a><\/p>\n
