Someone should show the current ADB crew (and most other modern dirt bike mags) how their predecessors wrote up tests.
The crap they put out now is junk, journalism degree my arse. They just regurgitate the manufacturers press release.

You wont find any modern MX magazines in my house....I bought a modern mag last year for a plane trip to Carins & was that pissed off with it that i tucked it into the seat pocket for some other sucker to read & be disapointed with...

No worries "VMX247", thanks - only to happy to share some of this material.

Perhaps a lot of the Members here on the Forum have these Mags stored away themselves.
I thought maybe overseas people might like to see what Aussies did back in the 80's, while I'm' scanning the stuff.

Longwarry must have been a cool track going by the comments, I guess it closed down ?
Unfortunately I never left SA when I was racing in 84.
