Steve Mc Queen

[@jackiegrossetete5207]

I bought new a 1969 Huskvarna 400 Cross when l was 29 l still have it in good condition l am 83, lots of fun! Love Malcom and Steve.

[@brianmccavitt330]

While sitting in the theater (14 years old) watching that riding on the sand scene I thought that's what I want to do for the rest of my life. Then dad bought a 1972 yamaha 100 enduro. We took turns on it. Then he bought another one so we could ride together. Then he traded up to a 175. It ended up up being mine. I longed for a 360 and ended up finding a '74 360 enduro. Rode it over 10 years. At 62 I'm still a 2-stroke fan currently on a kdx220. No end in sight.

[@scrout]

My bro and I started out on a Honda 90 step through in the 60's. Over the years we put 13000 miles on that bike and never got off the farm. Honda SL100 next, then a 71 Yamaha 175 with 21 inch front wheel. Lord we beat on those bikes and they never missed a beat.

[@dansotelo228]

I'm 63, grew up in LA now living in Seattle. While looking for information on a current job I'm doing, I stumbled into this KZbin video. I have to admit it, it brought me to tears as if I was dying and my life flashed before my eyes. I'm sure this clip had the same effect on all of us who were motorcycle riders back in the day. I love you all, and my all have a nice life and pass it on to your children and grand children that motorcycle riding out in nature is pure fun, even at the expense of screwing up a bit of nature. Keep crying, its OK. Love Dan

[@freefromleftwing]

Men do cry when it's necessary ... it's personal .

[@cavscout62]

“Nature” repairs itself.

[@tomwilliams4885]

I've watched that movie at least 500 times. Never tire of it. Been riding off road for 51 years now. Nothing is better.

[@timsr.6706]

Right ( Ride ) on Tom !

[@markdavid4897]

Nothing is better? I would say that motorcycle riding is a lot better than nothing!

[@alanriley9754]

Saw this fantastic film when first released in Australia in 1972. Timeless. R.I.P Steve McQueen.

[@arnenelson4495]

Kinda sad to look back in time when life was much simpler, much better, and gone forever. The Golden Years of motorcycling, glad I was part of it!

[@paulscountry456]

Those bikes were like noodles with little travel ,I'll take my new bike lol.They put stiff springs on those but they still bottom out ,powerful old motors though.

[@RTK171]

I saw this movie when I was 6 at the drive in. this MOVIE had a huge impact and the music is timeless Malcom Smith is a true legend. But the start of the movie with the kids on there pre BMXs was awesome and I'm sure all of us watching the vdo today can thank ON ANY SUNDAY FOR MAKING US ALL BIKE LOVERS TODAY.

[@michalejones77]

I am 65 now and remember sitting in the theater watching On Any Sunday. A memory I will never forget. I went with my friend Tim Ferguson.

[@keithclyde733]

Best motor cycle movie ever. That song goes through my head often when I ride.

[@imnew2nm324]

One of the greatest movies, about three of the all-time greatest bike guys, ever.

[@jacksiscavage6265]

Ya, Queen Steve. A true bike Guy? Lol. Not! FTM!!!!

[@siclmn]

When I turned 16 in 1965 there was no helmet law here and I found my 1st bike and just started riding. No rules no nothing just go out and have some fun. It was magical. I am now 70 and still having fun riding bikes. I don't know anybody else who rides now because they are all just thinking about dying. They suck.

[@charlesnorton5134]

Very well said Siclmn ,, "to buzy trying to die" ,,life is way to short to die ,, your never to old .. get the bike out and just ride , happy Christmas to all .

[@waagosh]

Brother I'm 77 still riding hard and fast.

[@doonsbury9656]

I think, even today, that this movie is still the quintessential movie on bike riding...and Malcom Smith? The things he does on a bike are freaking awesome!

[@johnfoulkrod4835]

Boy, that brings back so many good memories. I'm 69 and have been riding since I was 10. First bike was a Hodaka Ace 90, and then graduated to Husky's. Rode them all my life. Great movie and great songs. Takes me back👍😎

[@michalejones77]

Wow! The Ace 90 then Ace 100 are in most older riders history!!

[@garychaney5484]

Back in about 1972 I was hanging out with a friend that worked at a very small full service filling station north of San Marcos Texas. This was when they were shooting a movie there I think it was Getaway. Well what do you know in rides Steve McQueen with Allie Mcgraw on the back!!! I remember him asking for direction to Canyon lake. He also was not wearing his helmet because it was strapped to his handle bars stuffed full of beer! After some very great small talk he bid us goodbye. He accelerate a bit to fast in some graver and dumped it! Allie simply stepped of the back came to a running stop while Steve went ass over tea kettle into the ditch along with the bear spewing and falling out and rolling everywhere! He just got up gathered up the good beers put them back to the helmet , Allie loaded up while he peals out in the gravel with a glorious streak of cuss words! I saw Steve McQueen wreck a motorcycle! One of my best stories ever. And all true! Ask Allie if you don't believe me! I bet it is also one of her better stories!

[@stevenburton7922]

Cool story...thanks for sharing!

[@tictactuso]

[@mackeymichael]

That is a grouse story mate. He loved riding bikes like l do too.

[@ftby59mikeD]

Growing up these guys were my heroes, forget pro athletes, these guys were superstars!!👍

[@bongodave13]

Same for me. I didn't care about sports-ball. My heroes were riding dirtbikes.

[@lawrencefeldman462]

Yeah I was the same . Other kids were reading about football I read Dirt Bike Magazine. Dreamed of riding my Suzuki or Kawasaki in the afternoon in School. ​@@bongodave13

[@Tony-ot4mh]

No goggles, no gloves, no boots, no hand guards, no body protection, no stress, just ride and ride, the old days were the best.

[@ramant5576]

Yeah, and bikes with no electric start, fuel injection, abs, or rider modes, just pure simple magic... More smiles per gallon!

[@kevinmccorkle7476]

Saw this movie with my Dad and younger brothers when I was in high school. Totally changed my Dad's outlook on motorcycles, have been riding ever since!

[@richardkeeley6927]

Thanks for sharing. This clip sure brings back memories of riding in the late 70s and beyond. I started out on a 80cc dirt bike and I've owned several others since then. Today I'm 56 and I ride an Adventure Bike on and off road. :)

[@tpeee60]

On Any Sunday is an iconic film that makes your heart soar. If you ever riden a motorcycle this film will resonate at a gut level. RIP Steve Mc Queen. Classic.

[@timneaves519]

Every generation has its “They were the good old days” well lucky for me this was my good old days in the 70s on dirt bike no rules just lots of fun.

[@michaelwilliams2151]

I remember when I was in my teens in the late 70's, we would gather up at someone house in the A.M. , take off on our dirt bikes and never touch a main road and ride all day long. I'm glad I grew up then, I tell my grandkids about it and the don't believe me. Great times

[@decadantdog4444]

It's still like this in Heaven!

[@ManewBlewww]

Love the images around 4 - 4'30 with the warm colors and the beach...and the sweet lovely music. Thanks!

[@tombryan1]

The image of the beach torn up and closed off to everyone else? A public beach no less. If you are famous, you can do that. You try it and see what it gets you.

[@SeaWolfEntertainment]

Wish we could still ride on the beach like that.

[@briantheminer]

Oh my, where have the years gone, I remember this well

[@daverogers8309]

I was riding a Honda Super 90 at 14 years old and lived a block away from Malcolm Smith in the San Bernardino foothills. My friends and I would ride back and forth on front of his house sometimes till we saw the garage door come up. We’d chase him as best we could for the fun of it. Love this movie above all others.

[@stevemayeske7395]

I saw this movie in early 1971. A friend told me about it. I had been drooling over dirt bikes already mid 20’s and a family, but it changed my life, literally, from that day to now. Many bikes, many races traveling the southeast. Mid 70’s now and doing some of that with jeeps now, but I will still sit down with one of my copies of “On Any Sunday” and watch every second for the thousandth time. By the way, this movie was up for an academy award for film and music. Bruce Brown also did the movie “Endless Summer”, which did the same thing for surfing. They did a reunion movie of Bruce hanging out with these characters from that old movie that is wonderful as well. Very funny.

[@artschamberg4470]

Steve did it all The 👑 of cool How lucky his kids were to have a dad like Steve. R. I. P.

[@lawrencefeldman462]

On Any Sunday. Was and still is the best biker movie. Steve RIP

[@deanpesci5736]

62 here also - and yep, about 14 when this came out. We were all motocrossers ripping the river beds in central Cali, and this was quite the event. The Folks had to drive us an hour to Santa Maria to see it. Bought the soundtrack, and passed that around....the whole bit. Rode a Hodaka Super Rat....Ace 100 baby! Still remember the intoxicating smell of Castrol 2-stroke oil.....Those were awfully good days. Then we moved to Oahu and I threw myself into surfing, on the North Shore no less, so never gave bikes much of a second thought at that point.....but that WAS a good compromise...Doesn't pay to grow up sometimes. Neat, Malcolm, Neat.

[@kellybrown6988]

Plenty trails on Oahu, and then there’s Kahuku too!

[@bokarlsson1027]

[@jeffhicks1008]

I was the only one that road Huskys, all my buddies had Yamahas, and Hondas. All power and no suspensions. Its scary to see when some of the guys will bring out their old vintage bikes out to the track and all I can say is , holy shit I used to ride those things!

After this movie, every boy, every teenager and every single grown man with hair on his balls wanted to ride motorcycles. Sales went through the roof because of this movie. Cycle manufacturers should have made Bruce Brown a billionaire because of how much fun he made cycling look.

[@bobbyphillips2538]

It's nice to know Steve McQueen was fortunate enough to have people like Mert Lawill and Malcom Smith for friends for the short time he was with us. While obviously much of this was staged,or scripted for the film, I have a bit of personal insight on these guys. When I was growing up,a teen and thru high school Malcom Smith was my neighbor. I knew Steve McQueen was an actor,and very popular,but to me he was just this nice,kinda goofy guy that would come over and visit Malcom. Often Walker Evans or another racer would be there too. They all were just about as they seem in the film. We (the local kids) had a small MX track in an empty lot next to Dub Smiths (another off road guy,sometimes co-driver with Smith or Evans in the Mint 400 or such races) house. One day lapping around this tiny track on my Husqvarna WR250 (what else?) I hear this roar,obviously a big truck, on the gas and sideways behind me,and I look back and maybe 15ft behind is Walker Evans in his pre-runner truck,full throttle,with roost being thrown up and over the house next door (Dubs), with a grinning Malcom Smith in the middle seat, and Steve McQueen riding shotgun holding a bottle of beer out the window to avoid spilling it on himself. I thought,"Will these guys EVER grow up?" Not likely...

[@johnmunns5964]

Changed my life 👍

[@calsurflance5598]

The Peterson Museum in L.A., has several of Steve’s bikes including this Husky. He must have really loved that bike as it is the most “well used” of all his motorcycles.

I had and raced a 70 400 Husqvarna, wicked machine but the most wicked of all was the 75 Kawasaki KX 400, when that thing made a decision, you were just along for the ride, good luck, on a two tracker one time doing at least a 100, well the damn thing hooked up and flipped quicker than I could get on the brake, when I woke up couldn't find the bike, after looking in the woods, walking back I see it about 15 feet up in a tree.

[@AppliedArtsProds]

You couldn't do it then either. This scene was shot at Camp Pendleton Marine base. Bruce Brown was lamenting to McQueen that he couldn't even get a call back from them. Brown said that McQueen, a former Marine, looked at him, picked up the phone and called the Commandant of Pendleton. Within a few minutes they had their location.
