Indian Larry

Also a stunt rider, it was in
this realm he so sadly lost
his life to severe head
injuries while performing
at the Liquid Steel Classic
and Custom Bike Series
show at Cabarrus Arena
and Events Center in
Concord, N.C.. To many he
will always be known as the
one and only easy rider,
and brings to mind images
from the classic movie.
Whatever he is to anyone,
he was a hero to us.
Peace, Brother.

Believe it or not, many
people do not know who
Indian Larry is. And I say
IS because he may be
gone, but he is certainly
not forgotten since his
tragic and surprising
death following a stunt
accident in Charlotte,
N.C. on August 28, 2004.
He brings to mind many
images when I think of
him: artist, craftsman,
actor, but mostly a
genuine and very
entertaining man who
changed the life of
millions with his own
personal stamp.
Gasoline Alley. This is
his personal motorcycle
workshop based in
Brooklyn, New York.
Larry Desmedt, a New
York native, started his
motorcycle building
career as a teenager,
when he bought his first
bike, a 1939 Harley
Knucklehead. He
apprenticed in California
under Ed "Big Daddy"
Roth, and launched
Gasoline Alley in 1991.
