A few years ago at Ioco, BC there was a crazy young spaniard who wanted to throw a Fantic up an insane rock face, but was denied until after the trial in case of injury.

Of course Amos was only slighty crazier than that tempermental Fenchman who rode the greenjets - Berlatier, who urban legend has it dropped the rental van wheel off the cliff side on the way back to the motel - isn't that waht happens to all BC rentals?

Was it Pete Cartwright that also rode the mean greenies in the UK?

Anyone know what happened to John Reynolds and the big yellow Beamish?

"A few years ago in Ioco BC?" Good god NC, you are getting old like me! That would be at least 14yrs or maybe it was 18yrs ago. Something like that! It saw Berlatier driving a pickup truck while wearing a cowboy hat sink the truck into quick sand! It was no joke! About 6 or 7 of us rescued Ron Commo's Montesa from the quicksand at the very same event! I believe it was the WTC in 1983 in Muenster, TX!

Cheers, Steve

Mark,

I can convert them to DVD if you wish? I have completed a couple recently and they seemed to work fine.

I am going to the practise day on Sunday at Jarrahdale if you want to bring them along.

Cheers

Tony

By the way how is the Scorpa going? I bet it's a bit easier to get around on than the old Yammy! Shame it's not a Beta though
