isnt this the movie where the guy racing the 1000 on an XR hits a time hole and goes back in time ? if so yes , and i think i was about ten when i saw it . 26 now , wonder if hollywood video has it ?

[THNKPNK]

Yup-- that's the movie. Time Rider was hard to find.. had to special order it on DVD.

I guess I was just having an "oldies" weekend with that one and the original "Gone in 60 seconds" with Parnelli Jones' bronco being stolen...

Time Rider- Produced by Michael Nesmith(yes, the monkey) who is the heir of the white out fortune developed by his grandmother. He raced a chevy class 8 under the same banner(with Randy Salmont) and was a big offroad supporter. Where has he gone? I think he was entered in the 2000. Gotta love the tech items like the pre-edited tape with course notes designed to match your oncourse speed... Whe ever would have thought a Honda would be called El Diablo and kill Mexicans?

Yeah, I saw that movie many years ago! I thought it was funny when the bad cowboys said that if they had that "machine" they would have won the war (Civil War) - lol!

Wasn't there a movie like that where the guy rode around on a Maico and he made alcohol fuel for it out of chicken/pig crap?!? I think that one had the guy riding around in a top secret desert area and he got caught in some time travel experiment or something. FUNNY!!

Oh yeah, what a cult classic. Love showing it to newbies who've never ridden Baja before. I just tell 'em things haven't changed much. Back of DVD reads:

"Lyle Swann (Fred Ward) is a champion off-road racer who accidentally gets zapped into a government time experiment and sent 100 years into the past. But when a gang of brutal bandits steals his motorcycle, Swann must outsmart the local desparadoes and submit to the desires of a beautiful outlaw woman (Belinda Bauer - the only eye candy in the movie). Armed with only his limited wits and a map from an Exxon station, can Lyle Swann survive the wild west and get back to one final freaky twist of his future?"

All for fun - drink a six, er, 12 pack before watching.
