Just happened to be in Malvern this arvo and went past where his shop was. Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember John and Co being pioneers as far as Aus representation at ISDT. Is that right? Also I remember he made up a ?? DT 3 with a crude but cool expanded fuel tank ( did I see it in Trail and Track or The Green Horror?) think he also converted a Phantom into an enduro bike before Ossa released the Super Pioneer. Is he still around? J
