Shock Vintage trials

I ran into this pic in a box of old photos. It's me on my TY250 at a PA observed trials competition. As near as I can recall it was taken in '75 or '76. Get a load of the bell bottoms and special protective headgear. The bungie cord fuel tank retention was almost as hi-tech as the duct tape on the tank to protect it from the exhaust pipe.
