The Georgetown Cycle Shop

Demo Day January 17, 1988

You see, it all started when KTM introduced their all new liquid cooled four-stroke dirt bike, the LC4. George, being a KTM dealer, just happened to have the first LC4 in Albuquerque. Everyone thought that it was a really cool motorcycle. But, no one thought it was cool enough to purchase it. So George, being the shrewd business man that he was, held the first/last annual Georgetown Cycle Shop Demo Day. The idea was to let people ride the LC4 as much as they wanted to and hopefully someone would like it enough to buy it.

Open invitation to all hard core dirt riders.
Come one, come all.
Where: Southern Blvd riding area (whoop-dee-doo hill) go west on Southern Blvd. (in Rio Rancho, New Mexico) until you reach the horizon.
When: We'll be there from about 9:00AM on Sunday January 17, 1988 until every one leaves!
Free beer and test rides on the new KTM LC4. We will bring a generator and a TV for those football fanatics who can't live without the play offs (Denver vs Cleveland)
Be there, or be a pussy.

The mighty Georgetown Cycle Shop big rig arrives on the scene. George unloads the star of the show while Suds and Ron give much needed advice. It will soon become a plumb goose pimply cold day.

I sure hope one of these sorry ass moochers buys this KTM

"Wait just a damn minute here. I think I must be forgetting something..."

Hey George, good party. Where's the whiskey?

"Oh yeah, you two guys turn the throttles and pull the levers while I finish my breakfast. There's a sandwich in every can, don'tcha know."

The 1988 LC4. Come on George, kick it, choke it, don't choke it, hand off the throttle, start it already we're getting cold.

Now we find out why George had to finish his hydraulic breakfast. You need a lot of nourishment to start an LC4 on cold morning.

Leggo of my damn stick or I'll bite you in the balls

Tami Faye plays dog games with Jesse. You figure out who's who.

Hey George, I'll give you 50 bucks for it. Oh Yeah? Lemme see the money

Still no life in the LC4. Hard to start, hard to sell. Could there be a clue in here somewhere? At least there is no shortage of usefull advice from the team of experts, like Randy, Steve, and Ron.

Wah Wah Wah It doesn't feel like a Honda.

Steve (where'd you get your riding gear, the flea market?) is all set for the first test ride of the day. Don't stall it Steve!

I just bought a YZ490, what would I do with this thing?

Here goes Ron. "Dang these things are tall. Anybody got a milk crate? Oh man are my knees killing me. Hey, milk crate please."

Black Dog vs LC4, But the Toyota gets the hole shot, followed closely by Ron on the LC4. Tami Faye takes the inside line, cuts the course, and takes the lead in the next corner.

"Damn, That Black Dog rips!" George and Suds can't contain thier excitement.

It's too late to turn back now. You might as well check out page two of the Georgetown Demo Day
