David Maddern from Mt. Gambier at Colac in '82. Nice tight track, eh? I remember that weekend as the first time I encountered "quads". Scary!!

One for Tim! No idea who it is or even where the track was, but a sidecar at least.

Barry Sheene, Wil Hagon and Rob Phillis. You can see why he was called 'Budgie' ;D

It actually doesn't have to be that good.................................... :-\

i like em tony, if you have time i would like to see lots more. i have fond memories of that early eighties era, and good to see some Vic tracks too.
-
Jeez my old mate Will Hagon is in slim mode there Tony! The shot of Randy Mamola is a ripper. BTW, are you coming up for CD5?
-
while i think of it i got stacks of old B&W photos in a box somewhere from the scrambles that used to be held on top of Menglers Hill in the 70's
-
Sidecar guessing,,, , Wannambool or Colac rider "Goose"
-
sidecar powerplant appears the big kawa 900 but unsure of chassis..it's errrr...ummm...back to you for that one Tim! ;D damn fine use of a pump up Monroe's too..kinda tells me something :P

Weren't we we were all slim in 1988, Firko? :D
CD5 is looking less and less likely due to this ride for the Childhood Cancer Association in May/June. I'm not totally excluding the idea, but time and money is getting to be a bit of a problem. :-[
Can you post me a margurita? ;)
Then again, "Yoelle Robear" would be worth meeting............... ;D
-
Tony,
that shot of Mamola and the cagiva looks familiar, did it ever make Revs or Amcn?
-
Not that I know of, but I did sell a lot of prints of it.
Every time I got one for myself, someone would see it and buy it. So, to this day, I don't have one of my own. Plus I've got no idea where the negative is. >:(

i reckon its just a classic Mamola pose. i went to the 1989 GP at the Island and was in the siberia stand, Mamola pulled this off a few times in practice and qualifiers in this corner for the crowd. he pulled some awesome slides and as soon as the rear gripped he pulled a mono while looking at the crowd, he is my favorite as he always put on a great show and just Loved to ride.
