The Force is Strong In Park City

19 Jan 2009, written by moto 2 Comments

So Darth drags his BMW F 800 GS off the battery tender and rides it to breakfast at The Goldener Hirsch, because it’s the middle of January, sunny, and he doesn’t feel like skiing, or because he just can’t wait until the thaw to get out and ride it. He tells me this story that as he is riding through town, he thinks a black limo might roll up to him at a stop light, and the window rolls down, and it’s Ewan McGregor, part-time movie star and full-time adventure moto rider, saying hello and checking out his bike. Good luck, I say. I don’t think Ewan does these hyped-up festival things, then sure enough, we get this photo from PCTV owner Stanton Jones, who meets Ewan at a screening. Stanton shows him a picture of his new BMW GS 1200 Adventure bike from our Loop the Lake ride, and concludes after talking to Ewan, that in fact, it is all about the bike after all.

Ewan in Park City, no doubt thinking about his motorbike.
