[QUOTE="Graham Smith, post: 169431"] William Edgar aboard the JEL, the day before it was hauled to Bonneville for Rollie Free to make his record runs on the Utah Salt. William was a 15 year-old kid then with a dream to ride the fastest bike in America, and when it came back from Bonneville it was detuned for the street. It took a while for that dream to happen - but it did happen - and what a trip it was. Riding the Pacific Coast Highway, head down, hand on the throttle, the open road ahead, and leaving the rest of the world behind. Image courtesy: The William Edgar Archive.
