Bultaco's, Mantessa, and a Stiletto...
Outta here for a few days, back on the list on Friday...we will hash some
old times then Dave..those Penton's were high $ bikes, nice ones.

Yep, I started around 73 and gave up in the early 80's after breaking a leg,
hip and blowing out a knee. It got to the point that I would ride on Sunday
and
limp to Thrusday and it stopped being fun.
Never had the skill to be an expert. I rode enduro's and hair-n-hound
races. Here is a name for you; I round 175 and 250 Pentons.
