The guys over on the Hodaka site are hyping this one up, any POGgers headed that way?? It's a definate maybe for me, depending on finances. Don't have to ride, just hang out with the "Legends". Sounds like a good time. How about it Penton riders, any takers??
Dan,
There will be plenty of Penton riders at the reunion. Making the ride just to visit and take pictures is a great time. I hope you can make it.
Ron Carbaugh
If anyone needs an entry form for the ISDTRR, Ron Rabolzi supplied us with some. If you email me your address I will send you one, I will also have some at tonights POG meeting.
Hope to see you guys at the event.

I will be there with Keith U's Penton 250 as my backup ride. I will be on a Rokon.
Joe Murphy
OK I'm going to put it on my to do list. I'll let you know when we get closer if I can make. Any lodging ideas??[^]
Dan,
Here's five Pentons that I know of planning to race. There will be two 175 Jackpiners and two 250 Harescramblers coming from the Tulsa, OK area. Larry Seale and myself plan to ride the JP's with Mike and John Husted aboard the 250 HS's. My brother Bob and my dad Nelson are heading down from Pittsburgh, PA. Bob will be riding a 175 Jackpiner. Hoping Larry, Bob and I can all ride the JP's together on the same row. I'm sure there will be alot more Pentons. It's a fun weekend and alot of nice bikes of all makes to see. Hope you can attend.
Dave McCullough
Here's two more to the list: Gary Ellis on his MC5 175 and me on my '75 Harescrambler [8D] Are we going to need lights and/or license plates on the bikes [?]
Dan, I'll be there on either my 73 Jackpiner or my 77 250 GS6. It's right in my back yard.

The Hodaka website has a breif overveiw of what you need and what you don't. Seems like you have to have lights, but they don't have to work?? Check there for info.

I'll be there and Ron Ribolzi has asked me to be in charge of tech inspection. Yes you need to duct tape some lights on your bike but they don't have to work. Your foot pegs need not to be rigid. You need a kill button that works. Check your wheel and triple clamp bearings for tightness. Throttle needs to snap back unassisted and both brakes need to work. We will be checking wheel travel to stay within the AHRMA travel limits for each class. Premier, Classic and Sportsman bikes (pre 1975) 4" rear, 7" front. Historic class 1975-1977, 9" front and rear, newer than that it doesn't matter. Don't worry if your wheel travel is greater than what I just listed, we will have 1/4" spacers that can be put on your shocks to limit the travel. I think AHRMA charges $1 each for these. I look forward to seeing all of you, please say hello!!!!
I will be riding a Penton in the event, OF COURSE. I don't know which one until I get through with the next couple of AHRMA Cross Countries. I have competed in 5 different classes so far this year and which bike I ride will depend on which class needs the most attention!!!
It will be a great time, Ron and the Missouri Mudders do a great job.
Teddy
Who from the Houston, TX area is going that may have room for a frame and two motors? A friend in Houston needs to get these to the ISDTRR.
They are Hodaka related, but with a spare frame and a couple of motors, maybe one of the Hodies will finish this year, snicker snicker.......

Thursday: Open house all day and evening at Dave Mungenast's Classic Motorcycles in St. Louis. Plenty of ISDT heros there to meet and bug for photos, autographs, etc., plus plenty of historic bikes including ex-Leroy Winters, ex-Dave M, a bunch of Huskies, examples of Maico, Triumph, Yankee, Honda, lots of racing and ISDT memorabilia...you name it.
Friday: Parc ferme opens in Park Hills, pre-race tech inspection, sign-up/registration, evening meal & bench-racing.
Saturday: Riders meeting, event begins (expect 40-60 miles, usually 2 loops returning through parc ferme, several special tests), work period and impound for the night, bench-race, autograph and photo ops, Saturday night awards banquet which is not to be missed.
Sunday: Riders meeting, event continues (expect abbreviated route of 25-30 miles plus associated special tests), afternoon grass track final motos by classes, medals and closing ceremony.
Like they used to say on Hawaii Five-O...Be there, aloha!

Steve;
Days Inn isn't too bad. I got a room for 3 nights for a total $136 plus tax, the catch is ...I paid upfront on my credit card and no cancellations. That didn't bother me to much. Super close to the orv park. Holiday Inn Express is new and nice put $97 a night when I checked.
See you there.
