Penton Talk / Re: Thanks and Photo Test

Paul, thanks for reminding me that picture was taken at Camerino Italy 1974. I had forgotten where it was taken, which is pretty much par for the course now days. :(

Here is a collage I did from that event:

Thanks for all the work on upgrading the website! A test photo. I posted it on Facebook, Malcolm Smith's birthday.

Penton Talk / 1971 Penton 6 Day

Greg, Sorry you didn't get the word. It was somewhat an informal get together word of the mouth thing. It wasn't to replace Athena, just to get by until after Covid, sure hope next year.

Penton Talk / 1971 Penton 6 Day

Greg from Tualatin (fullchoke). Forgive me for not remembering ... were you at the Hodaka days at Yamhill this year?

I remember the Hodaka Days you're referring to ... Preston and I had a great few hours talking about the good old days. He and I think alike in many ways.

I just saw Thomas Anderson's (Tomoromo) comment from January about Chuck Boehler's Greeves. Thanks for posting!

Thanks, Rob ... I'm trying. Playing with photoshop, then going to youtube tutorials from the pros, I feel like those motorcycling beginners must have felt when we went flying by ... I'm humbled!

I've liked the simple layout of our POG website: that reply to topic, even if the post is a decade old, pops to the top, and the search works very well. I get frustrated with Facebook razzle-dazzle confusion. It would be a shame to lose it, and I'm in with some Stimulus Check money donation ... let me know where to send.

I've had luck with linking to Blogger.com:

Can people see the following photo, "cousins"?:

Paul, Mike. I posted to Paul's Facebook timeline and the sound test page, it shows up on my computer. Mike, you have to sign up for Facebook to see them, I guess is how it works. Also on this POG page, under my first post "I'll make it official ..." is a posted picture that I can see. It is a link to my Blogger website that has a repository of pictures that I've posted on POG.

Well ... Learn something new every day. So I'm checking out this 1968 New Philly Inter-Am Program, bottom of last page. I was on the "Penton Works Team"(MX) with Torsten Hallman, Lars Larsson & Gary Baily!  Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha ... seriously? Me an expert Motocrosser? But hey, I'll take whatever publicity I can get. I probably have Matt Wiseman to thank for this invention!
