It's fairly obvious to regulars that I have a soft spot for the old bikes that forged our sports early history. Here's a couple more shots of bikes that did it for me at CD5. Rod Macdonalds beautiful Anzani powered DOT and Greeves aren't bikes that I'd particularly like to actually race but they sure are cool examples of our sports pioneer bikes.

I would have like to get more but someone ended play early  ::).

I was really trying to capture the 'noise'. Some impression may be gotten by the reaction of the woman spectator  ;) ;D.

Hey Firko, what bike was been push started there? :-X :-\

well i'm back down at the library again and i'm still reading my way through all this thread.
farkin computers!
thanks DJ for your kind words, it was real good to meet up with you 2 kiwi's.
thanks Wombat for the pic of me and Gally,  i was telling him i have a back wheel for his YZ250A and he was telling me how to go round a corner real quick. i need the help.
and Hilly, the un-named bloke in the back of the back of the pick on page 39 is my mate Al.
and for Firko, i wanted to catch up just to say g'day but got sidetracked as usuall but had a good chat with your mate Allan. funny one for ya, i was right behind him when he took that little yoshi powered purple thing out onto the track, he hit the first jump then promptly buried it in the mud. i asked him the next day what happened and the story i got was a little different to what i saw. i think he was telling a fibb. nice bike though.
speaking of getting sidetracked, we stayed off site just a couple of klms up the road and each day we drove out there was always someone to talk to that slowed our exit somewhat. my mate reckoned it was like going shopping with his mum, always talkin.
can't wait to get my friggin comp back online.

Here's a couple of photos I wish I'd located back when the Kiwis were asking about snakes at CD5; but your Missus might have stayed at home DJ.

Vandy...Jonsey has told us six different stories about how he crashed with each explanation involving more air time and more speed and a different superstar taking him out. I saw him plop into the mud at about 6mph and only wish I had my camera pointing at him when he did it!. What a boo boo for a current Australian Champion.
Shit he had a good time though. I don't reckon there is any more enthusiastic a vintage punter than Alan Jones. There should be more like him.
