Title: Hi all from a new old guy
Post by: chrisdespo on January 09, 2011, 08:03:43 am
Found this site quite by accident while looking for a suzuki RM 250 A or B. had a bit of a read and thought these blokes are having some fun better have a closer look at the goings on around here found some people i know and some forums that i could contribute too. I was a member of MCRCV back in the seventies and worked in our family business Highyway motor cycles in Ferntreegully victoria . Had a few TM's RM's and PE's
I was mad on suzuki mx bikes. Raced at all the good old tracks like Wallan , Ravenswood, Wanthaggi, Bianco Park, Ballarat and used to practice up at Gilderoy and coldstreem.Looking forward to talking with all you blokes and hearing your stories

Gidday Gary long time no see i see david is around here somewhere also. I Dont really know if there is any of that stuff still around . I will see Dad now around 80 sometime soon, he wanted me to go to the junior speedway champs in brissy but to much rain for my likes. i will ask him to have a look and there maybe a bunch of photos somewhere as he sent me some the other day from around 1975 and there could be some from the Melanisia 2000 days as well
