Six Days. All of the manufactures of the era were doing the

I had the honor and privilege to ride the Six Days a doz-
en times starting in 1970, and my wife Gigi's travel agency
sent hundreds more during the 1970s and '80s.
Fifty years later, the Americans are still fielding teams

has been to the ISDT, now called ISDE (Enduro), is a

Twenty-two years ago, Leroy Winters and Dick Mann
hosted a reunion for ISDT veterans of their generation.
John Penton, Dave Mungenast, Malcolm Smith and
several other off-road legends attended the reunions
