 From memory Foss Geoff was riding a rigid MAC  Velo that day with oil leaking onto the rear wheel! I suspect anyone else would have pulled into the pits!.
 If I can figure how to make this damn equipment copy slides like it's meant to do I can put this pic up from the original slide which is  better quality.
 I think the Triumph you were referring to may be the Bonnie riden by Ray Curtis. I will never forget the sight of Ray coming into Energol corner on that monster using up all the track!
cheers pancho.

22" or 23" inch back wheel and check out those handlebars, not long after that the trend was for big wide bars, now it's gone full circle.
Everything old is new again.
PC won a world title then was killed in a racing accident way too young, mid 20's I think.

 Shit!! Dirt track images slipped off the radar onto page two.
  We can't have that. Put your dirt track/short circuit/grasstrack photos on here and keep this great thread going!!!        Regards   Mark
