below: Eddieville aerial photo of the Course. Motocross Track alone (in lower lef), still a big long track.
when I first saw this photo, I thought it was a joke- like a the "dream-track" as thought up by someone who was good at Photoshop to give you an idea of the scale,

means

The blacksmith has become a rarity & a curiosity, but this 17th century expression alluding to his art lives on. It refers of course to the brawny smitty taking
red hot metal from the forge with his long long handled pincers, or tongs, and vigorously beating into shape on the anvil with his hammer.
