Racing Vintage, you meet some interesting characters!




For some reason, I don't mind rain as much on my vintage bikes as I do on my modern ones...

yes its mine.. it hauls arse... Rage racing in the US is the guy we use to get maico stuff from.. I have enjoyed chewing many 450's over the years. We have 3 maico's in the shed.
Now that's what I'm talking about, feet up & power sliding!


I wish I could ride mine that well!


Track looks awesome, makes me want to take a trip down under.
