Who else sees a particular time on the clock and then think of a racer who has that number? I see 6:26 and I think of Tuna or 9:11 - Mike Smith. Or, when the power goes out and the clock sits there and blinks at me it's Metalhead. Sorry Richie, I couldn't resist.
For me it’s displacement, 8:51, 7:48, 6:49... Ironically usually a twin, go figure. EDIT - JP is this a “great” or “twisted” minds think alike?
I’ll do you one better. Picked up a dial combo safe. I remember the combo by the riders who sport those numbers. No, I won’t tell you who the riders are.
I always see athletes numbers in things. Hockey, baseball, racing etc. Played in a golf scramble a while back and we got cart 46 . We finished fourth.....lol. The guy I was playing with had no idea who Valentino Rossi was though.
Personally, I rise each hour of the day and night to observe the emergence of 46 minutes past the hour
The motocross kids from when Kris was young would cut up and have a “ moment of silence” when they realized the time matched someone’s number... 304, 707, 722, 903 was a thing with them for a while. I have had brain farts a couple of times and forgot the alarm code for my shop, for the last year there has been a reminder of two racers first names written under the cover.
There's an exit on Rt.84 in NY... Exit #17 coincidently called Ludingtonville. Some older AMA fans will see the connection there.
I’m not going to admit to any of this because it’s weird........ I’m just glad it’s not just me..........
