Hi all,

Hi All, could someone tape this? I currently don't get the Speed channel. I'll gladly pay for shipping and the tape. Thanks in advance, Mick.
Does anyone have a clue as to whether this may possibly be available in the future on tape or DVD??
there is a web site, I am not sure what it is now but I have visited it before.... I believe that they were planning on making them available in the future.... I for one have really enjoyed the episodes, Some of it I knew, most I did not... I have been looking forward to seeing Jim's. Living here in the Northwest, I have visited with him many times and enjoyed each time we did.
all the national riders of the day amazed me but Jim was different.. He was my hero, partly because I had ridden a bultaco about the same time he had won the Spanish GP and partly because he He did what no one thought was possible.
I remember the first time I met him. We were at a local race and I had heard that he was there. He was not riding because of a knee problem but he spent most of his time visiting with all the racers... Several of us were standing around telling stories and laugh when Jim came up put his hand on my shoulder and asked what was up. I about fell over, Jim pomeroy was standing next to me. the first great american motocrosser and he was standing next to me. the Man I only dreamed of meeting.....and now he is gone..... He is missed....

I see where that episode is showing again on Sat. 2/10/2007 at 7am EST. I read where part of this show was taped at VMD this past July.

Steve, does your TV have output cable jacks on the front or rear? If so, then you can probably record to a VHS tape. You remember those things? Kind of like riding a 4-stroke before 2-strokes became popular then the 4-strokes became popular again......maybe I'll invest in VHS stock! ;)
I contacted the Motocross-files there will be a DVD with lot's of extra footage that didn't make the show's soon.
That sounds good. In answer , I do not have a vhs anymore. May check out a TEVO
