Who's This?

Aaron Plessinger?

LOL, no way......that picture is from the 70's. Scott Plessinger was just a young guy then!

 

[Mosher]

Early 70's....like 1972. The track is Honda Hills. His forte was dirt track, not MX.

 

[John250]

Dick Mann?

Mosher is obviously trying to draw me into this...
It would be Chuck Jordan on a 1972 Yamaha LT-2, pic was probably taken at Honda Hills on the scrambles track.
Hard to believe its been 40 years.

 

[Mosher]

I knew you wouldn't pass it up....

 

[mshafer62]

And who might this be???

Chuck raced motocross at HH that day to win the 100 class. He looked under his face shield the whole time.

Did that yellow monoshock rider ever have a bike on a trailer in Linworth?

 

[mshafer62]

Chuck was an outstanding MX rider too!

Unknown

Damn...I feel like I'm the thread killer!
Here's another picture of the rider in the picture above.
Name the guy in the yellow jersey and extra credit for the name of the guy holding the can of Pepsi.

Badass Bill Leake......Jersey helped for sure....

 

[mshafer62]

Yessir...We have a winner for the rider in yellow.
Still faster than heck and making a run for the 50+ OMA and trying for LL in 2015.

Anyone know the guy with the Y jersey?
(JO, you'll meet him sometime this year as his son is starting to ride)

We had dealer based team events based on points scored at local races.
The Y represented MotorSports, Honda East had a team and I forget who else.

 

[BriarcliffMx]

No clue on pepsi guy......

This one might be tricky......Im sneaky like that.

From Mr.Peabody's Wayback Machine...Who's Dad is this?

(We know you're out there lurking )

 

[jcolleymx]

Mark,, Jeff's dad Dan Gibson? The Pepsi/Y Yamaha guy is the famous Tom Cowher! Now who's the cleanest guy in this pic? You can find the answer on the D11 FB site if you need to.

 

[Ironbutt]

Famous for inventing "Purple Jesus" Must of have been how he got all those hole shots back in the day!! At least that's what I heard.I think the guy standing on the left looks like David Eberhart?
