Anyone remember?
« on: December 21, 2011, 11:44:28 am »
Can anyone remember the name of the Swedish bloke who came down to race his own Monark GP at the 1995 Tanunda Nats? He was pretty damn fast, I think he may have trophied in pre 65. This is his bike....

I should remember, but can't.
I do seem to recall this coming up some time ago though and someone on here still having contact with him maybe?
Or did I just dream that............  ::)

I should know it as well Tony but my minds gone blank. I was corresponding with a Monark expert in Sweden and when it came for me to mention the Tanunda bloke my mind went numb. He was a nice old bloke as well, his daughter was, I seem to remember an ex Miss Sweden or something similar, married to an Aussie and living in Sydney.

I knew I could rely on you Alison ;D. It's pretty crook when you have to point me to one of my own posts to remember Kurt Gustaffsons name ::).
