I don't know if it's been released here in the states yet, but please go out and see "The World's Fastest Indian" staring Anthony Hopkins! It's about a New Zealand Motorcycle legend that does some really cool things ...based on his real life story.....you don't have to be a mototrcycle freak, the story is about an underdog and his dream....Being fresh off New Zealand where I got a chance to see it in a theater, then coming back on the plane....I think it's a great film! Please go out and see it, you'll love it!!

Looks a great story Mike and noboby does 'dignified' as well as Mr Hopkins.
Bit of a tear-jerker? Nothing like the sound of a high performance engine to mist the vision. If they ran some Castrol-R through the air-conditioning I'm sure I'd be a blubbering wreck. Can't wait!

Not a tear jerker..just a good story with some funny moments...I also read the book.."one good run" and it is very close to the facts... after Tea some night, stroll down to the cinema and have a go Arthur!

I can't wait to see this movie. I've seen the Munro streamliner in person. It is an amazing piece of machinery.

about time... Indians kicked serious ass for many years. Board track, Hill climb, Daytona, Laconia all the big tracks and the riders were some real gems too. Indians were scattered throughout Australia and New Z during WWII and many of those folks came to the states with modified Indians so show up the yanks. Some really great history. Thanks Mike !
