Ronnie Rall - One of Ohio's Finest !


Rall was one of the fastest privateers to ever race a motorcycle.  He once got asked to join the Harley factory team, but he needed to work on the farm - so, he just got a "bit" of factory support . . . that was about it.  When the track was loose and slippery - Rall just got faster.  He won at all types of events from 1/2 miles, short tracks, scrambles and road races.  He also flew planes.  Ron would disassemble his race bike, load it in the plane, fly to the race, rent a big car and then reassemble the bike and race it.  I guess he still farms and his son Chad carries on the family tradition bangin' bars with Geo Roeder at Wauseon.
