PBT&TR 1972-1974. If you look carefully you will see some previous FTR presidents.

Here is how we had fun back in the day.

Thanks for posting these Fred. I recognized several Apollo members in the enduro results. I think I rode the very last PBT&T enduro sometime in the 80's.

Thanks Fred, great pictures. Paul and Anita were so young then. Two of the great FTR members from the legendary PBT&TR of the early days.

Fred, are you sure these were from Croom. I wasn't riding bikes then, but camped at Croom in the late 60's and this terrain does not look like the Croom area. It looks more like what I have seen at Richloam.

Iâ??m not sure Mike. The guy that sent it to me identified it as Croom. The first enduro I remember riding at Croom was a 106 miler that went from Croom to Richloam and back put on by Jim Hines (1st FTR president) & Bill Parish from Sarasota. There was a deep water crossing not far from the start they told us not to even try riding across. The water may have been Gator Slew. If it was, we must have gone from Richloam to Croom and back. I know I rode that DT-1 in that enduro. I rode it in all Florida Enduros and The Stone Mountain Nationals in Dalton Georgia in â??68 & 69.
