JohnnyO, Dennis Dickman and l raced in the same class years ago,, dennis lived in north geelong, l wanted to catch up with him while he was here last november, but my work didn`t premitt me too, next time. Dennis was a good rider, and we had a lot of close racing on the elsinore.

I'm trying to get him to come to CD7 at Conondale.. he's still got his original YZ465.

Yes, l think he needs to let his hair down. Tell him, l come up to cd7, and l will use him for traction. that may stir him up a bit.

Gary Flood still regularly turns up at historic roadrace meetings, looking after the 350 AJR (latterly-built Bultaco TSS replica) ridden by either Peter Guest or Ginger Molloy. Peter de Angelis has re-appeared as sidecar passenger on the 750 Suzuki of Bruce Collins.
Nostalgia's not what it used to be....
