A quiz of sorts...


I was watching the latest DVD addition to the film library, "The Punisher" with Dolph Lundgren, when the idea came to mind for this little quiz. Can you name any movies/TV shows that had motorcycles in them? They didn't have to be in a supporting role, just in the movie. To get started off, here's a few that come to mind: -The Great Escape -The Worlds Fastest Indian -Race of The Power Bikes -Hells Angels 69 -Hells Angels on Wheels -Magnum Force (Dirty Harry movie) -On Any Sunday -Any of The Terminator movies -Lawrence of Arabia -Waking Ned Devine -No Limit -A couple of the Jason Bourne movies -The Leather Boys Now, over to you for some mental gymnastics to see what you can come up with, and they can't be repeated OK??

    A few off the top of my head (some had different titles in the US):

    Psychomania (US: Death Wheelers)
    Girl on a Motorcyce (US: Naked Under Leather)
    Roustabout
    Eat the Peach
    I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle
    Silver Dream Racer
    Purple Rain
    Easy Rider
    The Motorcycle Diaries
    The Wild One
    Electraglide in Blue
    Quadrophenia
    Chopper Chicks in Zombietown (yes, really!)

    That'll do for today, I'll probably remember more tomorrow.

    Just remembered "Happy Days", a Commando was seen in "Monarch of the Glen", "Heartbeat" and Follyfoot", "The Wild One" and who could forget the "bikeers" from the Blue Oyster Bar in "Police Academy"?

    Come to think of it Larry there was a small article in the latest Motorcycle Classics about a CHiPs replica Kawa. That was a good entry, forgot about CHiPs!
