Yep wished I still had the MX, the DT ran continuously for close to 20 years, figured over 100,000 miles, speedo broke at 38,000, was going to restore it, too many parts missing, now figure on just doing a tribute bike, the AT is in back of dad's barn, not sure what happened to the engine, just missing now,

I remember putting rubber bands around the bottom of the bell bottom jeans to keep from getting caught in sprocket or hang up on the shifter :woohoo:

High School parking stickers on the front fender circa 1972-73, note Mopar in neighbors yard. Still have a HT-1B in the garage but it looks much nicer now :)

I believe the glider made a forced landing.

This is the oldest photo I have found of me on a motorcycle. Bought that IT250 in 1985 and the pic was taken in the early 90’s. Had a lot of good memories on that bike and held onto it so I could introduce friends to the fun of off-road riding. Finally sold it in 1998.

Here's one of my old race pics... riding out to the start line of a night race at Corona Raceway (California) in late 1977 or early 1978 on my 1976 Husky... #53 on the right...

Probably taken with a Kodak Instamatic (126 film format, remember those?) from the stands... Yes, the cameras we had back then used film and were even worse than Rick C's Hasbrocam!
