Jan18 2010: Added several more photos to the Ronnie Rall-Dave Estep Album. Thanks so much to Kathy Estep and her daughter Julie Estep Buckner for sharing their family album with us. Dave was husband and father to Kathy and Julie, while Ronnie is their brother and uncle. Both of these riders spent many weekends racing and winning on the dirt tracks in our Mid-Atlantic region. From the cushioned tracks in the Carolinas to the hard grooved tracks in Pennsylvania and every track in between Ronnie and Dave became legends. Both men were honored guests and featured legends in the AMA Hall of Fame "Heros of Harley Davidson" exhibit that opened in 2003. Ronnie is a member of the Hall of Fame and was inducted in 2001. We are truly honored to be able to feature this pair of legends on our website.
