If this is the way to tell the world of Motorcyclist that Ed was a Christian then so be it.
ReplyDeleteEd worked for Pappy Hoel in the shop and around the home of Pearl & Pappy for many years.
I wanted to get him in any Hall of Fame, but he didn't want me to write anything up about him.
He had several Indian Motors in the Museum at Sturgis, SD.
