Uncommon History of the early years of motorcycle racing, Charles "Fearless" Balke was a remarkable talent whose career was tragically ended by an accident (like far too many others from that era). In Elgin, Illinois, in 1913, he took first place in the country's first significant motorcycle road race. The most surprising thing of all was that after his death, when cleaning up her nephew's attic, family members discovered a scrapbook that had been diligently assembled by his devoted wife Edith. A new generation of Edith's family has proposed him for inclusion in the American Motorcyclists Hall of Fame, more than 90 years after her passing. In 1909, Fearless took part in the Indianapolis Motor Speedway's inaugural motorcycle races.
