Glassfibre boats, gaffer tape, zip neck cags, reverse gates and arriving by helicoptor..... ahhh that takes me back :-) And now we all know where Indiana Jones got his theme music from! Great link and great quality images too. Thanks :-)

Peter Parker - 12 gate courses are plenty long enough!

It's a bit mad thinking about it but knowing those dates were just after the first moonlanding I thought I look up what else was happening around then

Robert Kennedy assassinated
Woodstock
Commission of Monty Python
Vietnam
Start of Sesame Street
Maiden flight of Concorde

How bored am I?
