Im positively sure i crammed more into my life as a kid/ teen/ late teen in 15 years, than the 35 years since.
Certainly did, loved growing up in that era in a very ethnic campsie, probably why now i have such a desire for foreign foods, 70 % of my school/ footy mates back then were either greek maltese italian croatian/yugos lebanese chinese with polynesian and kiwi, most of their mums or nonnas which fed me, eh your so skinny you must eat, eat.Mate awesome effort, looks like you had a great time growing up.

We all had 175s with 210 kits in them for a while they were the go, i personally started on a c90 then progressed dt250e,xl175, dt400e ,cr125, xr500 ,RD350LC ,CB500K ,HondaCX500 turbo Currently have XJ900F and the cb500kMy progression through the CC's, the fear was palatable every time I swung the leg over a new one.
Started out with an XL 175 and did a lot of trials riding through Back Yamma forest outside of town.

1 dislocated shoulder, two dislocated knees, broken fingers, three broken wrists, it was so much fun.
Paying for it now though, if I tried to throw a leg over a rig I'd strain at least 4 things.
