Title: Early Canadian Racing Footage
Post by: Wayne on April 22, 2020, 11:39:14 am

A friend who’s Father owned Nelson Motosports here in Canada shared this video with me. His father’s bike is number 94 ridden by Mike Duff. Pretty cool look at some early racers.

Did anyone notice the green dot when the guy was adjusting his carb? I thought they were only found on some engine cases?

Great film, I'm always wanting to hear the awesome sounds. And somehow draw on the memories of those smells, Back in the day!

Right in my backyard.  Wonderful to see how things were back then and less how things are now.  It's great to have our vintage bikes to remind us of times gone by.
