STEVE McQUEEN PICTORIAL

A CLOSER LOOK AT ONE OF THE GREATS

BY RICK SIEMAN

Recently we got  an e-mail from a reader that made us think. It went like this:

Hey SH

After having seen the movie On Any Sunday about a million times, my favorite rider is still Steve McQueen.  The only thing is that I guess most everyone has forgotten about him. I don't see any pictures or stuff like that. Can you help?

Well Mike, Matt and I talked it over and decided to share a few of the many, many Steve McQueen photos that we have with you and the other readers. For all you folks who like to see more of the legendary Steve McQueen, here’s a sampling from our collection.

 Here's the shot of Steve on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
