2; Drino P. Miller,
We keep going to Baja figuring to take first place overall. Each year we almost do it. We keep
sweeping our class. We beat the 25O's and the 360's and the 4OO~s and the 65O's. But there always
seems to be one bike, usually about 3 times bigger than ours (and twice as expensive) that manages
to squeak in a hair faster. This time it was a 400cc 8-speed Husqvarna ridden by a couple of guys
named J.N. Roberts and Malcolm Smith, whom we are told are pretty good riders.
Anyway, we guess our DKW riders, Gene Cannady and Max Switzer, who were second overall,
Steve Hurd and Eric Jensen, fifth overall, can still hold their heads up - they didn't do too bad
considering the o KW's were only 125's.
We wonder what J.N. and Malcolm will do if we ever get a bigger DKW.
