1966 Hodaka Ace 90 motorcycle and Larry Yount - beat...but unbeaten

Beat...but unbeaten. This is the story that's being repeated time and time again in every muddy, snowy, dusty, rocky hill and gully across this Great Land of ours. Anywhere there are guys that live for the kick of competition and demand a well-engineered, quality lightweight motorcycle with the guts to take the rough stuff, you'll find these little "Giant-Eaters, the Hodaka Ace 90. The weary young rider above is Larry Yount of Kennewick, Washington, who has just won the under 125cc class of the Championship (AMS) Dry Creek Trial in the rugged hills of Washington. One look at Larry and his Hodaka and you'll know how rough the competition was. Congratulations Larry (we're sending you a new brake lever) PABATCO is all heart. Oh, by the way, Hodaka took seven of the top twelve positions in the Dry Creek Trial, Yakima, Wash., Nov. 28, 1965. 1966 Hodaka Ace 90 Larry Yount Kennewick Motorcycle Ad available at www.DadsVintageAds.com

1966 BMW R-60 & Danny Liska start of 40,000 mile trip at North Cape, Norway

From Danny Liska's diary of his wedding trip from the North Cape in Norway to the South Cape at the Southern tip of Africa - 40,000 miles on his BMW R60. This was the beginning. The top of the world: North Cape, Norway. Hopefully the unprecednted journey would end some 40,000 miles away at The Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. Ahead were good roads, bad roads, no roads, and who knows what. With confidence in each other we headed South. Just the three of us.
