John Blackstock attended the 8th annual Racers Reunion at Donelson’s Cycle in St. Louis, Saturday (January 28) and sent us in these great photos of the national number riders in attendance and the following brief report:
What began as a birthday party for Neil Keen has continued as a huge gathering of past motorcycle racers from all across the country.
There were 24 previous or current AMA national number riders at the event. Also in the group were 8 AMA Hall of Fame members.
Don Larue Jr. of http://www.amanationalnumber.com made custom shirts for the riders and donated 25% of all other shirts sold to the Class of 79 and Friends charity group.
