Hey

A few correct responses with Neil Weston, Peter Atkinson, Gary Mears (Gazam who also had a TY250 back then).

Others known include Jorgy, Brian O'Neil, Woody, Michael Miller. Not sure of all of the names so one could be Mal and ????.

The photo was taken in the bushland between Seven Hills, Cannon Hill and Camp Hill attracting riders from all around the region. Jeff Gough was a visitor from time to time and converted a lot of riders to trials. Most of the official competitions at the time were held at Biddadaba.

And to follow on from gazam, here is a photo I took at a trial at Bidaddaba in 1974. The only person I know is the RL250 rider - Mark Stephens

Hi

Just scanned a copy of a postcard I found today. The postcard was packaged with a TY250 that I bought new in 1974.

Where is Mr Andrews now :?:
