More old SE Queensland trials photos

Post by David Lahey »

These photos were taken by a bloke who rode trials in the 1970s and I will eventually post a picture of him so you can have a go at working out who the photographer is. People who rode in SE Qld ACU competitions will probably remember the photographer as the bloke who rode wearing a yellow hard-hat (while some of us with obviously thicker skulls made do with a straw hat or peaked cap)
By the way there are no prizes or accolades for saying who the first pictures are of but they are such good photos I'm sure they will be enjoyed.

OK here are the photos of the photographer and his wife taken on a foggy morning at Conondale in the mid 1970s. The other Sherpa T is David Goldsmith's bike.
Clues are that he is someone very faithful to his Bultacos and is currently preparing a Mk3 Matador to have a ride at CD6 (at Conondale in June). He bought the Sherpa T in the photo new in Brisbane and still rides it.
Accolades for anyone who can name the rider or his lovely wife (except for David Goldsmith and Robert Jarvis who emailed me the photos!)
