    Favorite event of the year. Hope to see and meet all the Cafe folks again. This Cafe Husky group is still talked about so much down here in Texas as
    I had all you guys coming over the help with my bike and just plain talk about Huskies. They said who are these guys ? and their Huskies.
    Why are they helping so much? Hey - they are now starting to buy their own Husky bikes.

    See you all at the race.

    Unadilla and Ormstown. Two favorite Vintage events of the year.
    Don't forget to bring an old Trials bike with you, as there will be an ahrma Trials this year, with a special non points class for Post 79 air-cooled trials bikes with drum brakes and twin shocks.

    Yeap that's Joe, in the Cross Country on Friday & he raced 6 motos on Sunday :eek: on his 125 . Took him a little while to get some speed on the MX track, but he was going much faster by the end then when he started. I know he doesn't like waiting around for too long, & as he says i'm no moto guy, so i guess he treated it like long checks at a GNCC.

    Every thing was going well, we all went for you practices, but as it seems at Unadilla , Gary was to have some bad luck. He twisted his leg in a rut on his last lap of his 1st moto, soldier on & finished but then realized he was hurt worst then he thought, when he finally stop back at the truck.

    He's day was done, ice on the knee & he'd sit for the rest of the day :banghead: . I promised i wouldn't take any pictures of him with his pants down as we iced him down.
    so here's a later day family version. Joining us in this shot was Mike from VA, his wife, took this one, and was so impressed with how nice everyone at the races was.

    After my clutch went on my 430 right after practice, i was going to race my 510 in the 4 moto's i was signed up, but instead, Gary nicely :thumbsup:
    offer me the use of his Mint 430. Gary put alot, into this bike after his tranny went last year here before practice and it shows.

    Here's a few pictures of me on his jem, & it ran as well as it looked.

    As a matter of fact Gary got the longest distance traveled mention by the tower, as he trekked
    all the way from Texas.

    That was my old bike that I built in the early mid 90's to race in the CZ World Championships. It's funny how it ended up back on the east coast as I live in SoCal. It still has the Hilltoppers MC sticker on the gas tank as that is my club.
