Hawaii Sports Adventure
The final THRRA race of 1996.
Moto Sports Hawaii
Two laps of Hawaii Raceway Park from 1992. We taped a Super 8 video camera to my helmet and made a TV show.
Shop Improvements
Welding Table and Sink. I painted this part of the floor, added wiring and plumbing, then replaced and painted the drywall. The table is covered with 1/8 thick steel and mounted to the floor and wall. Next step is to cut a board to cover the sink for extra work space. When not in use the board will live between the sink and washer. The pull out faucet reaches the swamp cooler that parks in front the the table. Still to do: shelf for the radio, hang LED light over the work space, trophy shelf, above washer & dryer. Then it will be time to paint the rest of the floor.

Next Chapter
Working for someone else has once again proven too difficult for me. I’m thinking about what to do next. I have a good shop space and am taking Lindemann Engineering and EDventure Racing work again.
Five Consecutive Decades
My first race was in November of 1982 at Hawaii Raceway Park. My team mate and I won our class in a 4 hour race on my ’81 Honda CB400T. On Febuary 2nd of 2020 I won the WERA Lightweight Twins SS race at ACS on my 81st different race bike, a naked 2017 SV650. My new goal is to win races in six consecutive decades.

To my right is a F-3. To my left is a F-4 and two Yamaha R3’s. Just a normal day.
