Title: 1984 Australian Four Day Enduro - Conondale
Post by: IT400C on July 31, 2010, 12:29:36 am
Not great scans, and more to come - just trialling one of those $90 Pico neg/slide scanners....  These were all mounted slides.

Did David Armstrong ride the 84 Four Day?  I'm wondering if that's him on the KX (No. 300) at right...

These photo's are all from Slides - no prints - and they were scanned using a $90 Pico F170 Film Scanner - not too bad, but it does squeeze the image up side to side.  I've had to open them in Photoshop and scale the images to 100% width and 94% height.

overall, I'm reasonably happy with the results.

another 15 or so scans to come - probably tonight..

It's good to look through some of the old names.
I see Boagy was in this event, was their anything he didn't ride.

Gary Hore used to win a few Enduro's when I was riding, I beleive his son Blake does pretty well these days.

Tony
the first two are the 84 4day.  The third was 88.  The final moto for 84 was at Conondale.  I was flaging on spectators when Troy Spedding had his over the bars cash, he got back on to win the 200 class.
Mike have you got the 125 class?

Very Cool!   ;D  Brings back a lot of memories..

I hadn't realised that Ross Stuhmcke was event coordinator..  He used to live 2 blocks from me back in 82/83.  We used to go practising together in the Daisy Hill State Forest...  (which was just down the end of our street)  So much fun riding a "registered" YZ125 with him on his "registered" RM125...    ::)
