Yea Tony, I really like the little angle next to your comment about where you got the photo.
Funny.
In the peak of my best year, mid 1978. I'm racing for my friends bike shop, Ralph's Bike Shop, and I am co-sponsored by Cook Brothers. This is the first jump at a National here in Southern California. This particular moto was one of two groups of Pros where we had raced 3 previous races in the past month or so at 3 different tracks. The top 14 of those 3 races qualified for this race with a $3000 Pro purse. Big bucks for 1978.
In the picture above #10 is Brent Patterson, #1 is Stu, #173 is me, #81 is PK Perry Kramer, #13 is David Clinton, behind David is Greg Hill and Robbie Rupe is back there also. All in the BMX Hall of Fame. It was a tough enough group that I did not transfer out to the main but I have this picture as a reminder of an awesome moment in time.
Here is the winner...
