This was the 4th year for this USCRA sponsored and AMA sactioned
road enduro. For the 2nd year in a row the event headquarters was
at the Grey Bonnet Inn in Killington VT. The motorcycles are limited
bikes made prior to 1969 and displacements up to 250cc. The rules for
sidecar bikes were a little more lax. On Saturday and Sunday the
participants travelled on well-marked courses leaving around 9am and
stopping for lunch and a timed run on a 20 meter course of cones and
then riding back to the Grey Bonnet Inn. It was raining off and on
Saturday morning when I rode to the Grey Bonnet. I photographed
the riders (almost 80) as they started the days run. I returned on
Sunday at noon on my Morini 3 1/2 Strada to the Tunbridge Fair which
was their noon stop. I took 1700 photos of the bikes and riders.
At this time the photos in 1280x960 jpg format are avaiable on a CD
for $10. CD 07_14
