I had a meeting at a winery this arvo, so when i got back I wasn't in the mood for work.
So here's a few old photos I dug out. Mostly crap, but there you go...................


Billy Westendorf from Casterton in '83


David Maddern from Mt. Gambier at Colac in '82. Nice tight track, eh? I remember that weekend as the first time I encountered "quads". Scary!!


Randy Mamola


Mark Christian, Colac '82


Trevor Williams, Acusa Park S.A. '83


Robbie Phillis and Mick Doohan (looking a little chubby....sorry mate!) at Sandown '88??

Now isnt that better than weddings and wine

[Tony T]

Well better than weddings anyway................. 

[DJRacing]

yes I agree, and coming from the region you live in I bet you like a good red

[Tony T]

One for Tim! No idea who it is or even where the track was, but a sidecar at least.


Barry Sheene, Wil Hagon and Rob Phillis. You can see why he was called 'Budgie' 


Mick Doohan again and Warren Willing. Sorry for the road stuff.

i like em tony, if you have time i would like to see lots more. i have fond memories of that early eighties era, and good to see some Vic tracks too.

Jeez my old mate Will Hagon is in slim mode there Tony! The shot of Randy Mamola is a ripper. BTW, are you coming up for CD5?

while i think of it i got stacks of old B&W photos in a box somewhere from the scrambles that used to be held on top of Menglers Hill in the 70's

Weren't we we were all slim in 1988, Firko? 
CD5 is looking less and less likely due to this ride for the Childhood Cancer Association in May/June. I'm not totally excluding the idea, but time and money is getting to be a bit of a problem.    
Can you post me a margurita? 
Then again, "Yoelle Robear" would be worth meeting...............

Tony,
that shot of Mamola and the cagiva looks familiar, did it ever make Revs or Amcn?

[Tony T]

Not that I know of, but I did sell a lot of prints of it.
Every time I got one for myself, someone would see it and buy it. So, to this day, I don't have one of my own. Plus I've got no idea where the negative is.

 i reckon its just a classic Mamola pose. i went to the 1989 GP at the Island and was in the siberia stand, Mamola pulled this off a few times in practice and qualifiers in this corner for the crowd. he pulled some awesome slides and as soon as the rear gripped he pulled a mono while looking at the crowd, he is my favorite as he always put on a great show and just Loved to ride.
