I watched this man jump 13 cars at Kaukauna Raceway over thirty years ago.Bobby Knievel, has led a thrill, fun, filled life. He has done it his way, and if he dies tomorrow,he will be remembered as one great show man. Best regards, Bobbie, and go get a few hub caps, before you leave.
I met him when he came to Cleveland 30 years or so ago. He brought along his rocket he had used to attempt the Canyon jump. The nose of it was crinkled from the crash. A friend of mine took a picture of me sitting in it. One of my favorite pictures. I wish him well.
The worst thing about doing a "jump" over a cat was that 5-10% of the time the silly animal would move into the "landing-zone" and get its fur stuck in the bike's wheels. Kitty never liked that.
Otherwise, I played with that bike until it was in pieces.
