My daily riding while living off base at Camp Lejuene, 73-74
1972 Honda 250XL 4-stroke
This thing was a screaming 4-stroke high jumping monster.

That was a neat bike. I remember it well. Back then, two stroke dirt bikes were the order of the day . . .

I can remeber being at a local hillclimb, watching riders go at it with all manner of bikes. Nobody could get past 2/3 the way up. Along comes this guy on that very bike. We all laughed as he lined up at the bottom of the hill. We stopped laughing when he blasted by the 2/3 point and continued up and over the top of the hill. Nobody else even came close.

This was my
ride in 1972.
Steel fenders!
Ugh . . .
