Indian Larry was one of those guys that got me interested in bikes. I didn't know him, never met him, but I could care less because there are a lot of people who have heros that they never met. Everytime I saw a magazine that featured one of his bikes, I had to have it. Whenever there was TV show where he was featured, I had to watch it. He died on August 30th, 2004. This was also the day of my 21st birthday, and while I should have been out at the bars getting smashed, I couldn't do it because I was so bummed out about the fact that I knew I would never see a new Indian Larry bike, and I would never have a chance to meet him. I guess I'll just have to wait until I get a chance to cruise with him on the big golden highway in the sky...
