I hardly use the back brake as it is, Speedway upbringing.

When Jim bought me slider off me , he said " that bloody back brake doesn't work !! " , I said " It's never been used ".

Slides,
I think Trev's outfit may be just a bit too modern !!
That # 84 bike looks like it's got a Turbo or something !!

Brittish Rule, go the Beeza's.
Check out the ring in on the Trumpy.
Luv to see the good old K70 fronts, Ive still got a 19" front wheel with a K70 to fit a Kawa 250 A5.

We shouldn't forget MrBSA USA, the Dick Mann.
Looks like he might have had a sit down at this meeting.
Best real name in motorcycle racing, worldwide, without doubt.
I'm sure we've all thought of ourselves as Dick Man at least once?

Dick Mann's biography, Mann of His Time by Ed Youngblood, is a riveting read, not only about the battles Dick went through to go racing and his amazing race record, but also his influence on the subsequent politics and administration of AMA and AHRMA racing, the impact of which continues to this day. An undervalued but outstanding star and ambassador for the sport. ;)

G'day Jim, hope the holiday is going well.
When you meet Dick make sure you tell him how popular he is in OZ and how we'd love to see him out here at one of our events.
Maybe for the Classic DT Titles at Nepean next year?  ;D :D ;)

Jim will probably kill me for posting this,



But the big fella's been in contact with Dick, one way or another, for a while and got him to sign this pic of Jim on my TT slider at nepean when Jim owned it, I must admit I'm glad to have it back and I'm gunna take it to Canberra on a practice day,

It would be cool to see Dick at Nepean, however we probably would have to find a BSA twin for him to do a demo on, wouldn't that be grouse ??
