1980 Motocross GPs Summary: Bruno, Malherbe, Lackey ... with slow-motion
« on: February 15, 2016, 01:02:56 pm »
Fifteen mins
• Clear camerawork
• Several slow-motion sections
• Sound tests
• Good pit scenes
• Putting on riding gear
• Jogging and weight-training
• Great big-bore 2-stroke sounds
• Excellent argument with mechanic @14.30
• Footage of DeCoster in his final season.  Gosh ... a decade of bumps; I bet he was feeling 'over it'

I recommend this one  :)

Thanks Roger
Excellent viewing and I get to brush up on my schoolboy French. Definitely learned a few new words from the mechanic  ;D. After watching the Supercross yesterday those bikes from the 80's are definitely a lot harder to control - respect!

massive power bands
drum brakes
no such thing as knee braces etc
