State Champ ionship, Turk ey Run, National Hare and Hounds, and the Jackrabb its H.S., here's one rider who can hardly wait to get revving into a jampack ed '66 season. Only twenty-nine years old, Earl can look back over fourteen years of riding . He had his first taste of competition riding only two weeks afte r starting to ride a two-wheeler, and since then he has tried it aU-from TT to stree t riding. In fact, when he is not busy earn ing his living at the operatio nal end of a bulk cement truck he is busy with what he lists as his hobbies: Motorcycling! Earl is happily married with two children, an attractive seven-year-old twowheeler of the Future, and a young 'bomb- ' er' of eigh t who has been riding a minibike since he was five.
