    I pop in the DVD and watch it every few months. OAS was responsible for me getting my first bike, a '71 Honda SL70.

    It's also on Hulu for free. http://www.hulu.com/search?query=On+Any+Sunday&st=0&fs=

    I watch it every few months as well, and I really am 22! Makes me feel 12 again! ha! I actually saw On any Sunday 2 first, but the first is a classic!

    I also highly recommend the film done by Bruce Browns son Dana, called Dust to Glory, done in 2005...Has the same feel.

    I went with my parents to the drive in when this came out. LOL
    I was to young to appreciate it then but compared to the movies over the years it is pure greatness. And Junk is right Dust to Glory was very well written and the ending gives me chills everytime.

    I started out on that same mini-Enduro (under that large fellow) at the beginning....my Dad and I went to see it...

    If I had grown up Surfing then "The Endless Summer" would be my movie anthem....another film by Bruce Brown

    Both of the Brown's give good movie

    My grandfather owned a drive-in theater and I watched OAS every night for two straight weeks during the summer of '71. Needless to say, my parents had to get me a bike after that, or they would have never heard the end of it. It was all I could think or talk about.
