Mr. Backwards Jumps His Harley While Riding It Backwards

[toecutter73]

The man's name is Roger Rydell, AKA Mr. Backwards. I have met him in person and talked to him several times. He sometimes attends a local hill climb near me and rides his Harley up the hill, while sitting backwards on the bike.

Damn. I am crazy bastard on a motorcycle- but that guy has balls the size of church bells. I would never,ever have the guts to try something like that- and I am Steve McQueen when I get on a bike. Wow!

Mr. Backwards is a skilled hill climber while riding his bike backwards and he also runs the quarter mile backwards. I first saw him when I was about 8 yrs old at a hill climb. I have since seen him at National events such as the Springfield Mile and the Peoria TT Races.
