The above video was filmed on a closed circuit, by trained ... monkeys.

Geez a few changes have taken place since then ... bikes, personnel, owners, the old Road Warriors. Almost half of those bikes are now in different hands, I reckon.

You're not wrong there Betty.

Lot's of old faces that are elsewhere or have left our shores.
I think there's two bikes in different hands we do know, one bike stolen and no longer, two in hands of new owners we don't know.
And I'd say four that are very different from that time.

I forgot about that Dock!

That was the rough editors cut  - what happened to the other camera's footage, I can't remember...

and of course, the other activity on the same day:

Note, interesting info at the top, nerdy audio into toward the end!

Three or four actually:

Pigmy -> J5
Ducmonrob -> Dezmonster/Two Dogs
Dockstrada -> Mattyvas
Mattyvas -> OK I need help with that one (I'm not gonna look but I know he was on here)

So about half of them are in different hands ... bit sad really.

Maybe its because I'm somewhat 'new'ish' around here, but I haven't seen that Oz Mo logo (at the start and end of the clip) before - I like!

Far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, away.

But we were young (I was still in my teens if I remember correctly) and foolish, but us kids didn't care, wild and restless we roamed the streets looking for kicks by scaring dogs and police with our loud exhausts and laughing gaily  [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] as we accelerated away.

Thanks for posting that up Betty, had to go and have a look and I really like the one at the Road Warriors group shot, might make that one my desktop picture if Matty doesnt mind.
