Hi
Another question for the Queenslanders.
Below is a pic of a trials gathering in 1974. Do you recognise any of the riders? Where are they now?
At least one is still riding on a twinshock.

Re: Where are they now?
The guy on the left end beside the Kawasaki trailbike looks like Mal from Coorparoo but that bloke looks too old to be Mal in 1974. I can't remember his last name.
It's nice to see those old bikes looking so undamaged and new.
Val and Hagsta, have you seen this photo yet?
Hey gazam I haven't worked out who you are yet. By any chance are you a potential team member for a Three Hills team in trials competition?

The guy 4th from the right looks like my cousin. Although in 74 I think he was running a Husky. And that is obviously not.
He lived across the street from me his house adjoined the Seven Hills bushland.
Where was the photo taken.

Re: Where are they now?
Second from the right on the TL is Neil Weston (lived a few houses from me in Florence St). Fifth from the right on the TS I think is Gary Meares (GazaM ?????) whose son recently bought my Beta. Fifth from the left is Peter ???? who lived up past Tranters Ave near Skyline Drive. A few of the others are very familiar but I just can't put names to the faces...............Great photo by the way
