“It’s a great pure form of racing”

"Coming off of a weekend filled with vintage motorcycles, old school apparel and thousands upon thousands of motorcycling enthusiasts at the Barber Vintage Festival, I was introduced to a trinket of gold in the midst of it all. Racing legend and 1977 Daytona Superbike Champion Cook Neilson – pilot of the No. 31 Ducati 750 SS – took some time to give me a history lesson. It wasn’t your typical, “okay class, turn in your textbook to page 723” type of lesson, it was the kind where you can sit all day and gawk as the stories are painting a picture in your mind."
