The August 2005 issue of the British magazine Classic Bike has not one, but two articles on Sam Wheeler.  One is a well done biographical perspective of his involvement in LSR since the late 1950s and the other is the E-Z-Hook record runs.   I picked it up at Borders, but Barnes & Noble, etc. might have it.

Sam is the best current  Motorcycle streamliner rider, he has 40 years at this and I think he got in the 2 club in 1974 with a Norton streamliner shocked

I want to thank Sam for his excellent guidance in the Ack Attack Motorcycle streamliner..witout him the learning curve would have been much longer I am sure..I as the student still have much to learn..

On 9-27-08 we lost a great friend and fellow racer, he was the BEST, he helped anyone with anything at anytime.  His name is Dave Owen and he will be missed by all that knew him and I am glad to have met him.

Seeing him at Bonneville during 2008 Speedweek was the tops, Dave was in awe of the salt and as usual was there helping out anyone who asked..simply put we lost a great man who will be missed by all.
