This is the jump that won't have a landing. He will be floating with all the Angels, and I don't mean Hell's Angels!!! RIP Big Guy................

I am named after Roger Reiman (3 time Daytona 200 winner, AMA Grand National Flattrack champion). Roger and his father Hank owned Reiman's Harley-Davidson in Kewanee, Il. Roger built Evel's XR 750 Harley-Davidson's when he was in his prime. My father used to take my brother and myself to their shop when we were kids to set on his bikes and meet EVEL. Besides all the Hype he was one of the coolest individuals I have ever met. He lived his live wide open! I have a lot of memories of him and he sure will be missed. Godspeed Evel. The "Big Man" must need someentertainment.

Roll that power on Evel..RIP
(Wish I still had the old Evel Knievel bicycle to give to my son, he'd get a kick out of how bikes used to come...with fake tear drop gas tanks and stars & strips. Bike broke though many years agofollowing Evel's lead, jumpin ramps!)

I seen him jump ??? busses in Madison Square Garden when I was about 8 or 9.
I would have loved to get the chance to hang and ride with him for a few weeks....guess I will have to wait a while.
God speed and good riding.....RIP Evil!
