Been listed before but for anyone wishing to see old "Scrambles" here is a good selection, along with other forms of motorcycle racing.  http://www.classicbikes.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/index.htm

This looks like a good place for this photo !
In 1970 I rode this experimental bike at Moorebank scramble track........a Suzuki 120, fitted with half a Hustler barrel....hence a 125.....it also had no alternator.........ran off the battery only !! Purple Dave is obviously an old MAGPIE....Go Wests Tigers !!
