    I raced a bit in the early 70s on a honda cr250 Elsinore. This reminds me of those simpler days. Still riding, drz400S, and imagining those days when I do.

    In high school ,1971 I lived in the high desert and my new friends talked me into buying a Hodaka Super rat 100cc. Didn't know how a clutch worked and rode it one time before they took me to Dead Mans Point that weekend in Apple Valley CA to race it. Scary at first but I got pretty good and I'll always be fond of those days. Rex Staten was the guy to beat at that time. Thanks for posting !!

    Had a Carabela 250 Centauro back then in 1980, so much fun to ride. Crossing was so much better at that times, as it was not professional. Nowadays the performance level is much higher, but i fear the fun is lost (as in most professional sports...). Just being glad to be born in `65. Ride on.
