Default The World's Fastest Indian

I finally watched this film tonight. It just happened to be on one of my movie channels as I was flipping through. I'm glad I got to watch it, it's a solid movie. It's crazy how his bike set a record that still stands today and his Indian was over 40 years old when he set it.

I rented it a while back and thought it was a good movie.

It's a litle slow, but definitely worth it.

My favorite line: You live more in five minutes on a bike like this going flat out than some people live in a lifetime.

This thread has made me decide to go out and rent it tonight and watch it again. Buying it if I can.
