SynopsisA selection of cartoons featuring the character Ogri, who has appeared in a regular cartoon strip in Bike magazine since 1972. Ogri experiences the ups and downs of biking, and illustrates the mysterious passion that lies between rider and machine., Since 1972, Ogri has been entertaining motorcycle enthusiasts on both sides of the Atlantic. Created in the U.K. by Paul Sample, and inspired by his own motorcycle mishaps and lack of social graces, the title character experiences, in unexpurgated graphic glory, the trials, tribulations, frustrations and joys of owning and riding a motorcycle (i.e. black ice, diesel spillage, manhole covers, police, politicians, etc.), while exposing the prejudices and posturing he observes in the sea of life swirling about him. But most of all, Ogri exemplifies the obsessive passion between a rider and his or her machine.
