On youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvuwGeVpP5w. Showed up to race,Montessa broke. First shots the Americans, then the Europeans practiced. Unbelieveable!! First time I had seen them, I had thought the Americans were fast! What a contrast! Torsten broke his arm. Nice shot of John Penton coming up the hill. See yourself here?
Next to put on line Larue Oh. 1969 and Elkhorn Wi. 1969 Inter-ams.

Matt,
That was realy great! That was the international MX that got John and the Amherst Meadowlarks on the AMA poop list.  I announced the Saturday MX but got some kind of bug and handed the mike over to Bob Hicks.  I was also the president of the Meadowlarks at that time.

For what ever reason, that race weekend just never got the place in history that it should have.

Thanks for sharing the old super 8 with us.  I'll be forwarding it to T. Hallman and T. Hanson.  Hanson had a bad time of it too but not as bad as Hallman's arm.
