ISDT 1969 team members contact request

farmer fred · 07-28-2011, 07:49 AM

I couldn't decide which forum this would go in. If this is incorrect let me know.

I am trying to get in touch with any members of the 1969 ISDT team (West Germany) for a story I am working on.

Here they are:

U.S. Riders
U.S. Vase 'A' Team
Malcolm Smith...Gold
Mike Patrick...Silver
C. 'Hockie' Hochderffer...Bronze
Dave Ekins...Bronze

U.S. Vase 'B' Team
John Penton(76)...Penton...Silver
Bud Green...Penton...Bronze
Dave Mungenast...Penton...Silver
Leroy Winters(71)...Penton...Silver
Ronald Bohn...Penton...Silver
Billy Uhl(119)...Sachs...Gold
Ed Schmidt...Silver
Bob Hicks...OSSA
Preston Petty(122)
Lars Larson
Bob Ewing
Ted Lapadakis
Bob Arison
Al Baker
David Eames
Dave Latham
Bob Maus
Tommy Maxwell
Jerry Pacholke
John Rice
Dale Richardson
Andy Richman
Herb Uhl

Canadian Riders

Carl Bastedo DNF (Overtime) Day 6 Yamaha
Larry Bastedo DNF Overtime) Yamaha
Bill Sharpless DNF Injury Bultaco
Bert Irwin DNF Overtime BSA 441
Supporters: Clive Kelly

I left a VM and sent an email for Malcolm Smith a few weeks back, but nothing so far.

If anyone knows any of these guys who might still be willing to get pestered with a few questions, I'd appreciate passing them a note for me. They can reach me at fred (at) fredsgarage.net.

TIA

I know that Malcolm,Petty,Penton and Ekin's are still alive. Petty and Penton were both at the VINDURO ISDT Ride Reunion last year and are more than happy to shoot the shit,Petty especially.
Mungenast and Winters are both deceased.
Try getting ahold of Carl Cranke over at VINDURO as he is a former Pebton ISDT rider and is kept in the loop of riders.

Any chance you have any pictures and or stories of your dad riding at the ISDT? Of course after Farmer Fred gets the info he needs.

PM sent. That is cool as hell. I am trying to track down some info on a long-deceased member(?) of the team that year.
