Whoa dude. I didn't know you had blackmail photos. I know when that was taken, simply by the coat.

Yes! Penton 125 post Hodaka Super Rat! My coming of age in racing --I won all the races there, even beat Todd and the Mortensen boys from Cedar (the trophies are in the Santa Clara garage to prove it).

End of December 1971 & early January 1972 at the motocross track in the infield of Dixie Downs Quarterhorse race track (now track homes). I wonder who took the pics? I think Shauna was actually there at the race.

Uncle N- in that first picture it really looks like you are wearing fur lined boots... In every other picture you look manly though. especially the last one. (good work by the way, although kind of awkward)
