Here I am, (winning, I might add...) racing in 1972 at the Marysville Raceway just outside of Sacramento, CA. This was on my Honda 250 Elsinore, my favorite race bike. I was sponsored by my parent's music store: Herreid Music, located in Redding, CA.
My sister and her husband own it now. They have two stores, one in Redding and one in Chico. www.hmusic.com If you need a musical instrument, call Rich at (530) 243-7283
I wish I had taken more photos of my racing days, the "glory" days, so to speak. This is the only one I have. I was gonna go professional at one time, but was smart enough to know my limitations. I was very good at the regional level, but would have probably got myself killed. I was just good enough to get myself into trouble on the track, but NOT good enough to get myself out, like the big boys could...
Again, GREAT memories
