father had recently ridden to a gold
medal at the Fort Hood Two-Day. Gary,
riding
Expert
division,
never
relinquished his lead as he cut seven
mi nutes off of the winning time fro m
the preceeding month's race. Rick
Corbin had to flog his 340 Rokon
against
some
stiff
but
erratic
competition in the early going bu t
outlasted
them,
fmishing
overall
Amateur in second position. Mac
McKinley rode his Austin Sportcycles
tuned Husky 125 to second Expert with
Tom Robinson on a 360 Husky in third.
David Cooper on a Yamaha was first
250-Open, Gardner Ayref was second
on a Husky, John Shoemaker rode an
MT-250 Ho nda 10 third, Bob Edrington
was fo urth on his 340 Rokon and Mike I"
Bryant was fifth on
Yamaha. 125
honors went to David Piepenbrok on a
Ca n-Am, with George Lloy d on a
Penton in second.
A free beer awaited each finisher and
after three hours of heated competition,
it was an ap p reciated ad d ition t o the
day's festivi ties. Everyone see me d to
e njoy thems el ves although th ere were a
few dejected no n-finishers. A couple of
t o d die s and so me good race lies soon
had them ready for the nex t even t,
however.

idea of having a fairly easy enduro early
in the year and offering it to everyone
of all ex perience levels is j ust p lain
super. Not only does it offer the Ex pert
a chance to unlimber his or her bike
fro m th e long win te r 's nap, but it does a
m o re important thing. It allows the
Novice and the family to give it a try
without disco uraging the m with a toug h
course righ t off t he bat.
Earl Ha rris, o f Fort Lupton, was one
such example . No t only was this Earl's
firs t ever e nduro , bUI he had t he
dubious distincti on of being firs t off the
line . He finis hed o n ti me but sai d that
he 'd had a few pr o blems in between he got lost a t one point and was runnin g
around lo ose in a small town u n til he
retraced hi s ro u t e and fo und the nex t
check.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lehl ra n the
event on their Yamahas just for the fun
of it while their two daughters waited
with fingers crossed at the finish line.
Mrs. Lchl started out one minute ahead
of her husband and ca me in abou I ten
minutes behind him. She said she got
lost and never did make it to the ba ck
section of the course. She had a big grin
and said she was just plain happy to be
back.
Don Bergener, on his 125 Yamaha.
managed to take a first place trophy
even though he'd missed a turn and h ad
gotten lost for a short lime.

Rainy Rio Bravo
racing
By L. J . Oupl ichan
HOUSTON, TEX., APRIL 18
Easter eggs, motorcycles, and
eight inches of rain in the area
were the order of the day at Rio
Bravo on Easter Sun day. A large
n umber o f enthusiastic riders were no t
hampered by the holiday or the weather
an d turned up ready to race. Showers
started abo ut mid morning, b ut a full
first heal was run in every class an d then
the cash and trophies were awarded on
first m oto resul ts.
Those fellows in the m ud encrusted
leathers t u rned out to be t he 125 A
Division and the inner wa s Eddie
Thomas just ahead of Doug Cooper and
Brad Haskins. When the water hose
cleared the mud on the B class , it was
Greg Thurmond in the lead with Ryan
Kirkpatrick
and
Don
Harrington
trailing,
The 125 Intermediates and the Open
Amateurs started within 30 seconds of
one another and it was so me kind of
wild. Open bikes and 125s alike were
bogged to t he hubs, but Tom Curry got
through to claim number one in the 125
Intermediate division and Scott Stevens
made it through fo r a second place
finish followed by Scott Smith, Mike
Contello, and Randy Adams. The
fellows on the big bore machines were
not to be outdone and Bill Davis took
his Mo noshock Yamaha aro und for a
fine ride to claim first among the ju mbo
Amateurs. Gas Mart's Jerry Darnell with
his new p urple tank Husky was the
runn er up followed by Ro bert Rubel ,
Jerry Wegmann, an d Dup Duplich an.
In the 125 Expert di vision, th e lead
changed hands several times wi th
Mickey Pizz a tol a gelling t he ho leshot,
b u t experiencing difficult ies and falling
back. Hard riding Bo Ko ch slushe d his
way thro ug h the debris of bikes and
riders and Came ou t on top for first
place money trailed by Robert Cereal,
Glenn Urquhart, a nd Brian Dougan.
Mike Wha r lon made it look easy in
the 25 0 Expert class and poured it on
for an undisputed first place victory.
Brian Schafer was next in line at the
cash box followed by Roger Brown and
G lenn Urquhart.
