Hillclimb
That brings back memories. I rode with some of those guys and met some of the others. I think one of those pictures is a guy named Ron True.

So, I was at my Grandmas in Bullhead City before the holiday weekend. She gave me this huge box of photos and I found a few I have never seen before. Maybe not Hillclimbing, but here is the machine I rode before I had any of the kick ass TLD gear rippin' the hills. 1980, 4 yrs. old in YL rippin' the track next to my house on my Suzuki JR 50.

Someone was asking about Peak graphics from 1992 for the 500. Here are some photos of my Hillclimbers from back then that I found down in the shop. Man I love those PC cone pipes.
