I remember the Hollands racing in the real early 70s, 3 of them I may be mistaken, george running mini class and fast in and around calf. If this is the same guy at the time his brother Sammy was a force to be dealt with also? Man those were the days.

It's funny how everyone's bars look bent downward to me in every picture from the 80s. Were their bars REALLY bent down like that or does it just LOOK that way?

Nope they were all that way. We ran it that way and thought it was normal. It was not until Bradshaw and Jeremy started rolling the bars forward and riding WAY over the front end that we started running the straight bars common today.

Just listened to Pulp mx interview with George Holland, probably the worst interview from a rider I have ever heard. Mostly yes/no answers with Steve trying everything he can to try to get the guy to talk.
