I think that might have something to do with who was taking the photo's, she might have been a little biased. Great shots for her first attempt with a SLR camera.

She did a top job! Mrs Maico took some really good footage with my video camera and as soon as I work out how to get it on U tube I'll let you all know....

Yep, that's a pretty fair effort! Who is the rider? What's the bike, 86/87 YZ250?

Only the top 5 or so modern riders do that jump every lap around there, so it's a ballsy move on an old bike.

It wasn't one of the Clarkes. It was John Selva's teenage son on an '88 YZ250. He actually crashed the bike in a later race and was run into by another rider. The bike cart wheeled all the way down the stair case. The subframe was folded down onto the rear wheel and you could clearly see the shape in one of the down tubes from the wheel of another bike. Totally destroyed the frame. The young bloke wasn't hurt and took it all in his stride.
Cheers,
