In March of 1962, Steve entered a cross-country motorcycle racing National Championship event called the Four Aces Moose Run.
He came in in 45th place overall (out of a field of just over 100), and got 3rd place in his Novice division. His
good friend Bud Ekins who was also competing came in 2nd place overall. Steve on bike # 955 ![]() Steve told William Nolan: "I'd been doing some cycle riding on the dirt, but I was still new at the game. Had a bit of a problem early in the race. Some of the riders resented the fact that I was an actor. They didn't trust my motives for being there - so they blocked me at the start. Still, I did okay, finishing third in the Open Novice class". |
