Ok guys and gals I thought I would share some of my most prized possessions here.Some of these are such Classics, and I believe some of you folks will find out what the term Vintage Iron really means. And it ain't no 1973 model YZ or CR 250, boyz. I am disappointed in myself for not being able to find out some information on some of these pictures earlier on in life, but I, like many others, was too busy just treasuring being around the man. Folks, some of these pictures are where and how it all started, and without this prerequisite to my era, we as motorcycle enthusiasts would not have near the fun and enjoyment in this sport as we do today. T.C. deserves his own Site, Poem, Novel, etc. for sure, but I hope this page will suffice for now. So check them out, and maybe these will help bring back some great memories, they sure do for me !!!

Thanks !!! Old Man, For Everything.

I would appreciate any feedback or information that anyone has to offer on these pictures. I numbered them since I don't have much info. on them. For those of you that may not have known T.C., I'm not being rude, but all of us that worked for and with him referred to him as "Old Man Carter".

Enjoy !!!

• One of my fonder memories, T.C. and I at the Mosier Valley Buddy Race. There are a few oldies ( and one youngn ) standing around watching, waiting on a bike etc. in this picture. This is quite a good conversation piece if you were around and in on what all led up to this race and the outcome of the race. There are quite a few good ones about the buddy races at Mosier Valley. As Jeffy Sue,my brother Kent, Jack Wallass, and James Gibbs could attest to. Quiz!!, how many of you remember the "Super Trick-Double Throw Down" motorcycle that Gibbs and Wallass set out to obliterate the buddy races with? Tip ... It was a good idea on the handoff.
