Race Dog
Yip, 1982, when we were riding in rugby jerseys, full face helmets, often army boots and often jeans! I have an old Bike SA article, written by the organizer and at the time, the wheelie king, Laurence Potgieter. Some pics as well. Will post it shortly. Just wondering if any of the current Wilddogs were on this adventure, now 31 years ago?
We had hair back then! O0; Leshoto was still a bit of a wild place :laughing4:, I was farming in the Free State for my uncle near frankfort. Bought myself a second bike; Yamaha 465 IT, paid about R 2100, brand new!
Laurence Potgieter was the organizer of the Thumper Club and I did a few rides with them. I kept contact with some of the riders through the years and after 31 years, my friend Geoff that I met on the trip, is my short term insurance broker. Enough of the background; article and pics to follow soon! :lamer:
