How many ti mes do yo u see a Dalesman 125 in the desert?
Ponderosa
hare scrambles
By Dale Brown
LANCASTER, CAL., MARCH 3
Rain turns most Southern
California tracks into quagmires.
Rain turns the normally dusty
desert into a place filled with
traction. And so it was for the
Ponderosa Hare Scramb les. But
yo u can't use .all that tractio n
when you're flying through the air
between w hoop-de-doos, and the
Ponderosa is loaded with whoop-de -does.
The sun was shining and the wind
was like ice as the race got underway.
Eight miles tater, as they passed the
scorer's stand, Larry Roesler (CZ} was
in the lead. Bob Masse y, also on a CZ ,
caugh t and passed Roesler on the
second loop and held onto first through
the third lap to the finis h. Roesler got
second Overall and second Open. John
Kap lan (Hus) nabb ed third Open.
In t he 175 d ivisio n, Mik e Merrick
(Ho n) was the victor, w ith Chris Mullet
(DKW) an d Paul Ziegler (Ya m) finishing
second and third, respectively.
Gary Wingate brought his Yamaha
across the finish line ahead of all other
T r a ilb ik e s ,' Kevin Randall (Yam)
finished second and Joe Swindell (H.D)
got third.
The previous day was reserved for
the O ld-Ti mers to show the youngsters how it was done. J ohn Kaplan (Hus) set
a good example; he won. Ross Massey
