Please correct me if I'm wrong but I thought I heard about two years ago that Jones passed away. Of course I saw it on the internet somewhere, maybe someone can confirm.

I was a team mate of sams,( Harrys cycle sales) He was by far the nicest well mannered kid in the whole bunch, oh yea and the fastest. The last thing i heard about him he was having some sort of break down, this was 20 years ago. I truly hope he is doing ok. I would sure like to get a harrys reunion together

So true about sam, thats why Im looking from him,havent seen or talked to him in over
25 years and was wondering how he and his family were doing ! we go way back.
As far as a harry's revival wouldnt that be a kick in the a// ! So many of us went through
that shop and so proud to put on his jersey back then in the ocir/sb/ec xr75 days !

This is so funny! The first time I saw the eye was at Barona Oaks. We were racing remote control cars in the pits and the dust got in his face. Out came the eye and he wipped it off in his hankercheif. We laughed pretty hard!

Hey Tom,I enjoy reading your post and I know you are loaded with motocross info.You seem to still have a passion for mx and you certainly made a mark in SoCal motocross.I still have many of your publications.Of course my favorite one was when Kurty Hendrixson and I had a good battle and you made some nice comments about the race and us.I still have it.I hope you and your family are doing well and look forward to talking to you in the future.MX101(Chris Taylor)
