    Yes, talking to Dick was a treat. He spent a lot of time racing and practicing here in New England. I had him sign my MX trophy while he was handing them out. Real nice guy!
    You can go here to sift through tons of photos from the weekends XC, MX and more. https://sasquatchvintageracing.smugmug.com/VintageMotocross

    I wish I was able to go this year but nothing ready to ride or haul with right now. Too many cars to work on and none are old enough to be that simple.

    I have always wanted to meet Dick Burleson as I have always admired him before he became national enduro champion in 1974. I was even more impressed years ago that he was the first USA mx champion based on the 4th place in the 1970 Trans AMA. Most never heard about it because the AMA did not really support motocross at that time in terms of national as opposed to international.

    I agree 100% with Jim, and Dick is one hell of a Nice guy in person, as are all the Vintage Legends, I've had the pleasure to meet...

    TON more pictures to post, just takes sometime, as all the files sizes are so large , I've got to reduce them by 50% just to post them...

    Same Bat time, same Bat channel....
