RK plans big motorcycle jump TONIGHT 6.12

[rche]

Hiya folks,

Robbie Knievel is jumping over 3 Budweiser semi trucks tonight (Fri June 12) at 11pm Central time. The stunt is in front of the state capitol in Austin, TX. I wish I could get there to see it live, but that is a bit late for the kiddos. However, it will be telivised on the local news channals and webcasts are probably there as well. I know News8 Austin has something going on with a live telecast.

Hope he makes it.

He jumped over tour buses at a casino nearby a couple years ago.We lined up for a couple hours to watch and in less than a minute it was over.He's a gutsy guy,hope he clears them.This buds for him.

About a year ago Robbie followed in his father footsteps by performing a jump at Kings Island Amusement Park in Cincinnati, Ohio (25 year after Evil make a similar jump at the park). Pretty cool.

These stunts are so 70s...they don't excite me anymore...but I guess it's a living for him.

The only one I've ever seen is the Grand Canyon jump.

that is an odd thing to say on a board that centers around an iconic 70s toy.

I don't like everything from the 70s...some thing were great...others not so great.

Besides...what does a long bike jump have in common with toy collecting anyway?
