Pre 60 bikes. What are the choices?

[firko]

I personally hate sand but each to his own I guess*....I think this photo is Hawkestone and it still exists today.

Being rescued by the Police Rescue Squad after breaking my leg deep in the Kurnell Sandhills in 1971 has a strong influence on my dislike of sand today

A TriBSA from that same 1988 Amaroo meeting. It must be out there in someones shed....anyone recognise it?

No Dakar for you then hahahah
I don't mean 3 foot deep sand as seen in the Dutch sidecar cross, just 6" or so on the top.

I read somewhere else on here that someone's about to debut a Parilla Wildcat. There's yet another interesting bike these old classes attract.

My other pre 60 class racer, my Maico 250 arrives later this week from the USA. It might be a bit of a struggle on motocross with that (lack of) back suspension though but it'll be a fun ride for dirt track

Hey Mark,

I think that's the ex Terry Gunter TriBSA that Phil Barrett owned then and Fast Eddie owns now. In the backgound is my Yellow Maico and Roger Dean's MkIII Pursang,

Pete.

Of Course Pete,(sound of penny dropping), that's when Phil Barrett owned it. I'm so used to seeing it in Edgars blue livery I plum forgot all about the bikes yellow period. Yep, the bike's sure in a good home all right.
BTW Pete, the managing director of Franks Cranks Pty Ltd wants you to ride his Mojo Matchy at the big meetings this year, especially the DT Nats in October. Save that date!!! Mojo v Betty pre 65 shootout!
