I just had a closer look ... is this mag a Revs compendium?  It looks like "A Fistful of REVS".

yeah, it's a good read - I have that one too - as a kid I was always "interested" in the two girls on the cover with the painted on leathers...    ;D

The article inside showing the painting being done was good too...   ::)

Thanks a lot for posting this NSR.

"...the snow rapidly covered the trail and the arrows..." Far out!  :o

264 entries for the Orange Two Day in 1976; do modern enduros get a similar amount of entries these days?

No, and it was a full east coast series and tough as.

I remember going to the QLD round of the Rakman Series in 77 or 78??

Someone broke their Can-Am in half - well, the steering head, forks and front wheel parted company with the rest of the bike anyway...   ::)

Them's were the days...  ;D
