Howdy,
 
Yesterday, I was fortunate to see the film, "The
World's Fastest Indian".
 
If you have a fondness for Indian motorcycles, racing,
and Bonneville, I think you will like this movie. Even
if motorcycles and racing are not you cup of tea, it's
a very good and true story.
 
It's the story of New Zealander Burt Munro and his
dream of setting a land speed record at Bonneville
with his old Indian. He didn't have much money. Of
course, New Zealand is a loooonnnng way from Utah.
What he went through to get to Bonneville and be able
to run there is a testament to a truly indomitable
spirit.
 
Burt did set a record in 1967 at the age of 68. The
record he set, for that particular class of
motorcycle, has yet to be broken!
 
It's a wonderful movie, inspirational and satisfying.
I don't think you will be disappointed.
 
Oh, to top it all off, Anthony Hopkins plays Burt
Munro. He's such a good actor and I hear that New
Zealanders say he got the accent down perfectly.
 
Here's a link to the website about the film.
