FILM MAKERS
Today is the late Richard Vincent’s birthday, and by chance, a film I produced about him, Dirt Track Dickie, will premiere at the PDX Motorcycle Film Festival on Jan 30-31 2026. My nephew Brent Deal directed, another nephew Leonard Alexander shot it, and I’m interviewed throughout, filling in the gaps in Richard’s story. I hear from David Martinez, who has two films in the Festival (Slowly Going Faster and Rally Kats, that both nights are totally sold out. – Paul d’Orleans
Be sure we’ll keep you posted on this film!
SUMMARY
In 1965, Richard ‘Dickie’ Vincent was a teenage flat track phenom, destined for motorcycle racing glory. Then the Vietnam draft pulled him off the circuit and onto the battlefield, changing everything. Fifty years later, Dickie is back in the saddle, chasing the race that time, and the war stole from him. The question is: Can his spirit push a body and a rusty Velocette motorcycle, both of which have been weathered and forgotten for over half a century?

Richard was an instant friend. After your “wheels and waves” video featuring his 8mm films he walked up to me and a group of fellow vintage motorcyclists at the annual OVM rally in Corvallis, Or. I immediately recognized him and said “you’re Richard Vincent”. He replied something like “I suppose so” and our intermittent friendship continued on through OVM rallies, Velocette rallies, and AHRMA road racing. He would just show up and we’d fall back into that comfortable conversation about old thumpers and going faster. I’ve missed him terribly.
