I DON'T WANT A PICKLE

I just want my motorcycle. That's the lyric, right? Regardless, this is opening weekend in Boston for The World's Fastest Indian, starring Sir Anthony (Antony if you're Gwynnie) Hopkins. It's a simple story, but very well told, about an old man living out his dream. And it comes at an appropriate time here, not only because Springfield was home to the Indian Motocycle, but also because the Northeast Motorcycle Expo has roared into the World Trade Center in Southie.
