     Congratulations Lars! 

     If it were that easy many more would have done it long before.  You took the challenge, over came more than your share of obstacles, got there, and did it.  I'll bet Burt is smiling down with approval.

Way to go Lars!   We've all been waiting to see you with a record since you first started writing your build thread.  Such a neat machine you created.  It was great meeting you in Bill and Veronica's motorhome.  Wish I could have stayed to help out with the rest of the gang.  Maybe next year.  Good luck at the BUB.

This his bike in the afternoon.
He would have got to run on the same day he put it together but the staging line was just a little too long.
If everyone had to over come the obstacles that Lars does, I think the lines would indeed be much shorter.
Congratulations to you Lars!

Good job Lars!  Your record might not be the fastest of the meet but it is first rate for the suspense and excitement.

Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.

Lars,

Don't you consider Kurt a true Dane?

Oh yes: Kurt is a true Dane though he lives is the USA.
I think that what Bill was maybe refering to
is the fact that I am the first Dane to drag a bike
build in Denmark, forth and back
over the big pond to set a record.

In fact I talked to Kurt on the phone yesterday
and I am very muck looking forward to see him at BUB.

With Speed Week being as large as it is I was fortunate to meet Lars at Salt Talks.

Lars, you are phenomenal.
