"THE KING OF COOL" HIMSELF -- ALL AMERICAN, ALL THE @!*%#$& TIME, YOU BASTARDS!

PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on the late, great Steve McQueen (1928-1980), eternal legend of classic cinema, carrying the "Stars and Stripes" for the U.S. Team at the opening ceremony of the ISDT (International Six Days Trial motorcycle event), East Germany, c. 1964. 📸: François Gragnon.

PIC #2: The same Steve McQueen shot doing the Stars and Stripes proud, with different color grading and resolution -- 596x825.

EXTRA INFO: The 1964 ISDT marked the first time an American team had entered the grueling ISDT motorcycle event. McQueen, a passionate motorcyclist, represented the United States at this prestigious and historically significant event. His participation in the 1964 ISDT further cemented his reputation as the "King of Cool" and showcased his tenacity. The event was held in East Germany and attracted riders from around the world.
