The Wild Evel Knievel

Evel Knievel

I loved Evel Knievel in the Early 80's as my First Bicycle accident was in the name of Evel Knievel. Living in Washington State, I set up Tires to Jump over and preceded to Bike Down the Hill at a High Rate of Speed. I yelled EBOW K-neeBow as I crashed recklessly into tires without a Ramp.

I think this was the Wild Part of my life where I learned that what you see on TV is not something that you could try at home as I ended up with a Massive Concussion and in the hospital.

Every time today I still see Roby Knievel on the TV or any other Stunt rider, I think... Man that was stupid.
