What a difference 10 years makes. After complaining about my 1963 and then seeing Steve Holmes photos of Goodwood it reminded me of how 1973 was like living a dream for me. From being at Trojan Works and going to motor races around England, track testing at Goodwood, meeting well known drivers, taking a Contiki Tour to the Munich Beer fest, showing my bride to be around London and also going to parties (without my bride to be !) with Barry Sheene and his crew. (Suzuki of Great Britain was part of the Trojan complex)
Barry was a real character and a marvelous rider and we met up again at Long Beach in 1977 to share some old times. He passed away way too young at 52 but he achieved a lot in those years !
