Williams wins at Woodland MX
By Clay Light
WOODLAND, WA, FEB. 8
Ki,k Williams won two classes with 1-1 finishes
at Woodland Motocross Park. .
Williams, a 1970s Pro, swept the 250cc and
Open Almost Vintage classes, which had 19 and
17 entries, respectively. In the Open class,
Williams beat Mako rider Mark Envolsen and
Yamaha-mounted Richard Sipp.
Oregon's Bill Row made a rare appearance
and carted off a win in the Over 40 class aboard
a 1974 Honda CR250. Row, UlOugh, had to overtake Intermediate Doug Powell and his 1969
CZ360 in order to do so. Powell trailed Row in
both contests, while CZ rider Dole Hodson netted second Intermediate. Yamaha jockey Dana
Salsman scored the Amateur win ahead of Boltaco rider Rick Downing.
Jon Morgan used a 1974 Yamaha MX250 to
card wins in the Over 30 and 250cc Sportsman
[ntermediate classes. Morgan cl1ased Honda riders Joe Casey and Chris Clark in the day's best
battle in moto one and finished behind an
impressive Clark in the second contest, which
Casey did not finish. Casey's mechanical woes
continued in the Over 30 class while well ahead
of the field in moto two. Morgan stole the lead
and capped off his double win.
Former Canadian Motocross Champion
Terry Hyde brought out his sano Triumph 650powered Rickman and carted off a win in the
highly competitive Pre-'70 class. Hyde, despite
running on one cylinder in moto one, beat all
comers. His Rickman performed much better the
second time out, beating CZ rider John Ulver,
who carved through traffic to chase down the
friendly Canadian.
