That's cool, some big names there. It's funny when you look at the 125 championship race and see what some of the top guys were riding.. Suzuki 90's and Hodaka 100's.  :D

Maffra-Sale club had an unusually high number of orange Cappras among the ranks.    Someone out east
there must have been selling them to the troops. (Sale is a heck of a long way from Lyall in Geelong!)
They looked fantastic when ridden with the red maffra-sale club jersey, which had a white Maffra-Sale MCC
across back.
