Honoring the Legacy of the Legendary Woody of Woody's Wheel Works: Rest in Peace, Woody!

Image
Woody and his Woody's Wheel Works has long been a strong supporter of the Bonneville land speed racers of the British Motorcycle Association of Colorado (BMAC). His crew contributed to the building of the BMAC's original land speed motorcycle, "Sherm" that I now own and has earned 7 land speed records.  Next they got me fixed up with new racing tires and repaired my wheels on my latest land speed motorcycle, the 1971 Honda CL350.  And Woody is my racing sponsor! I only met him once and he so deeply touched my heart and filled it with love at a time when my 83 year old father was dying of cancer. "Legend" just doesn't reach far enough to describe Woody and the community he built.  Rest in Peace, Woody.
