photo time



Nice DT250, Better in real life than photo sugests

and it does the business

Wally

the New Chicane

Which way did they go

one for Tim

some of these riders are over seventy years old, and no its not the guy on the inside


Bultaco Astro doing what it was built for

and this is the pit of a well known Super Senior
but where do you think he sat down all day
In the water truck,, billy your a legend


Cheers
Noel

great fun yesterday! 'specially my first race! took one and a half laps for those beautiful looking sliders to catch my old monster. i ended up with a third place at the end of the day tired and sore with a big grin!.the new track layout seemed to suit every body with most really liking it. dust was a problem on the day plus the usual problem of finding flaggies.this caused a delay getting started. the fans of nepean should really try to come out on days that they're not riding and try to help out. cheers wally. cool pics noel!

Excellent photos Noel and certainly gets my adrenalin for a comeback pumping.
Is number 70 the original owner of that number, TH?
And who might 74 be?
I'm disappointed I didn't make an effort to go as I grew up at Nepean.
Probably doesn't smell the same without all that oil sweating from the track.

Good stuff Noel. Is the no 70 who it should be. Any idea who the guy standing next to XL350 is and how'd it go.

Whilst on the Dirt Track thread did anyone go to Coffs Harbour. Dont quote me but I'm hearing that among others that a certain guy from Medowie had a pretty good weekend. Can anyone fill me/us in.

Col,
I'm pretty sure the owner was riding in a come back and stood on the top of the podium at the end of the day,
the owner off the XL350 also owns the Metise in the background that was stolen and recovered.
cheers
Noel

It looks like T.H's riding style and as always his bikes are immaculate.
I'd love to know who no 71 is as he looks like he knows his way around on a slider as well.
Was it just a club day and if so which club.
Me thinks Trev is on a comeback for the Aus Titles at Barleigh Ranch.

No.74  is Steve Constable and no.70 is prominent A grader from way back Trevor Hunter. No.25 is the old xt special that they coudn't catch for two whole laps.cheers. Steve No74 was using a speedway clutch No gears! Will be interesting when he's got gears!

Taa Noel, I have a bit of an interest in the XL350's at the moment as am in the middle of restoring 74 (silver tank blue stripe) XL350 and if it ends up looking half as nice as that one in your shot at Nepean when finished I will be well pleased.
