- Yep: I did the RC stuff back in the day, they were really alot of fun, they sure have come a long way since then, I have to stay away from Wild Bills, I don't need any more hobbies (lol) Our Buisness is fantastic, we do mostly the newer Audi and Volkswagens now, very few of the old VW's. Still down the street from the old Irving Suzuki Location, Se Habla Espanol??? Hope you and yours are doing good.

Bobby Pickard said… - Well Im sorry if you camped next to us, that had to be a long night. After MX I thought the enduro circuit would be easy, I was wrong! There was no purse and I had a real job so we partied and had a great time at every race. I had a ride with KTM so there was a little pressure to win, but I usually rode with the same guys on my min. and there are many stories. I look forward to seeing you again and tell your mom and dad hello, Irving Suzuki was a major player in TX MX.

Jack Jeter said… - Dang son. I've thought of you guys over the years,always good memories. Your dad sure helped me out when I was ridding Suzuki's. He's a good guy.
The mechanic in your Dad's shop,back in 1970, is the reason I'm in the business today that I'm in. I think his name was Lee Benton. It all started with him doing a cylinder boring job for me.
Man that's been a long time ago. How's your Mom and Dad doing,ok I hope. Where do all you guys live now?

Craig Knight said… - that's funny. I DO remember that photo. everybody wearing their jerseys, sitting on their bikes, right in front of the shop. can't remember everyone in the pic, but I believe there was Alan Pope, Sean O'Brien, Boyce Gohlson, Keith Jernigan, those two guys who were step-brothers (can't remember their names), along with their Dad and Uncle who rode RM 250's and 370's.

I have to admit I'm not a super fan of Hannah, but I did see some of the greatest come from behind rides from him. I know Johnny O' put in a great `125 ride in the MXD on a dry track, but I got to see Hannah's 125(a true 125!) ride in the mud and hi…

Wow Keith your right looks like him on the #816 bike........................;^}
Get some meds..... Get some meds CK. Regards MKA
cut the crap! Hannah..., the best MX'er of all time?!?!?!? uh-oh, I have a little bit of vomit in my mouth!
short list of better, faster guys: Robert, DeCoster, Mikkola. there's more, too!
"LET BROC BYE!"
none of the three guys mentioned above wou…
Un freakin believeable! It is still in such excellent condition!! I still have my original 1969 and 1970 monthly sales sheet with the invoice # listed on it. I'll skan it and send it to you. Let me know when there is another VJMC gathering. Maybe I'…
Yes it is. That was the bike you sold to my dad. It is unrestored. This was taken a couple of years ago at Up "N" Smoke in Keller at a VJMC gathering. That's one of Tony's Z-1's in the background..
Bill, I second that. Hance, you're OK, even though you laughed so hard at me last year when I missed the berm and crashed my XR100 in front of you. Your entry fee is certainly a nice gesture for Stacy. I'm sure he will appreciate it. It's things lik…
Rick, is that the same bike I think it is?
Mark, it's been 41 years now, so my memory aint as sharp as it maybe once was (If it ever was) and maybe you influenced me and Greg to learn how to ride the uni-cycles............. No wonder you were so much better on your uni-cycle than we were !!!…
No wonder you were always so fast.While we were on tricycles,you were on a unicycle.It just ain't fair !!!
I must have never told Joe, but I had a unicycle when I was a kid. Seems like your your balance is so much better when your young that it is easier to pick up when your a kid. There were 2 other kids in the hood that rode them, and we all rode them…
Thank you, Mike. Send it to Walden or Craig. Do I hear $105 from anyone? 110? How much would someone pay NOT to see me in the Pink Thong again?
Yeah,but it looks like it came easily !!!!
Craig- I think 68 or 69- not sure though.
David Donaldson used to MX some in the Metroplex area, and Craig on a day like to day Bishop would be covering that head with a toboggan- a stocking cap for any yankees out there . Miller and Gotschall are CC guys.
Mom & Pop were big into the Elks lodge, and every year they would have a Christmas program for under privileged kids, and I was drafted into clowning.
Mr.Hance !!! You're the Man.We'll look for you at the Banquet.Take care.
I can't make it but please sign me up for $100 entry, and let me know where to send my entry fee!
