RED MO UNT AIN , CAL ., Mar . 18, 1973
Seven teen year-o ld Mark Adent ,
m o unted -on a 250 class DKW , ch arged
thro ugh the pack to tak e first ove ral l in
the Sled Riders M.C. Hare & Hound.
T hi s was Mark 's first o vera JI win , an d as
he said , "This is my best day, I co uld n 't
do an yth ing wrong. I got lost a cou ple
of times but fo und th e co urse righ t
away , the b ike wo uldn' t run on low en d
so I just ke pt it buzze d up an d
every th ing turned ou t OK !"
T he Sled Riders had their work cut
out fo r th em, as they had to use th e
sam e area t he In vaders used last wee k,
with onl y a short ti me to wo rk on the
co urse, take down last week's ribbon,
etc. There was an enduro running on the
other side of the hill . To say th e least,
the desert is ge tt in g ti ght .
A lot of the de sert 's h oes went to the
Mint 400, so the b oys who staye d were
having a ball. It w as really anyo ne 's
race. We had n o id ea who was going to
win a t the start.
The ban ne r d ro ppe d at 10 :0 0 AM
sh arp , and the battle was on between an
Amate ur with a big n umber , J eff Kir k
o n a Yamah a, Bill Bogn er (S uz), wit h
Ad ent mo vin g up from sixth to third in
the fir st three mile s. Kirk too k the lea d
fro m the leading Amateur and we n ever
fo und o u t who · he was. The n Bogner
ch allenged him, and they wer e going
wh eel -t o-wheel wh en Bogn er hit a ro ck
an d le t th e oil o ut of hi s case .
- Man of th e Hour A de n t ca ught Kirk
ab o ut six miles o u t an d took over th e
lead . Kir k said " Man , it wa s scary o ut
there . I didn 't kn ow if I w as go ing too
fas t or no t fast eno ugh . It 's a lonely
feeling to be in the lead."
T he first lo op was a fast, rou gh 36
mil es with lots of whoop-de- docs an d a
lon g san dy do wnhill. T hey say that
Ade nt j us t sho t do wn the hill with no
traffic, b ombed through t he pits wit h
about a tw o mi nute lead over Kir k.
After Kirk came Bill Saltz man.
Meanwhile , t he Novices were ge tt ing
with it as th ey st art ed fifteen min u tes
la ter an d, in all the d us t, we think No.

righ t t um in to th e sandwash. He

as we took his pic ture banking o ff the
wall . Some show, Dennis Myrick on
your ho t Yamaha ! Novi ce win ner Bob
Ornelas was running a close four th an d
