come on Phobe, Yvonne? whats wrong with you, he raced in the 70s (before we were born but I still know thats when he raced). Miguel has been racing for what 10-15 years now (at the pro level)? He rode the Smokin Joes Honda in the mid 90s. Learn some history about your paint job.

Yvonne raced in the late 60s and 70s with a reasonably long career as well.

Right on. But you googled the face shot I'll bet.

Now guess the event and the mystery mechanic in the first photo . . .

BTW, that's my bike in the last picture, but not with me on it . . .

Close, the photo was named kg.jpg, so I ASSumed his initials must be KG. Some quick searching on the Canadian Superbike series lead me to that name.
I probably shouldn't be pissing away so much time playing detective, but oh well.

Actually I'm pretty surprised this thread got as many posts as it did. I was just going through some old stuff yesterday and ran into a boatload of pictures. I am still digging through several hundred more, but these were in the first stack.

Keep em coming. It's kinda fun to do a bit of research to find who these people are in pics you post. The only downside is more then half the time I'm about 5 minutes late with an answer.

The Cajuns were in fact, Canadians. They were exiled from Acadia (which would now be New Brunswick and southeast quebec) in the 19th century. They settled in Louisiana and Mississippi. So technically, Hammer and Kawboy are Canadians... sort of.
