1983 Trials World Champion Round in Fully, Switzerland
At the verge of the mono area 1983, I visited the Swiss WC 1983 round in Fully (Wallis) with splendid hot sunshine.
Eddy Leujeuns's minder was busy cooling the 4-stroker with water bottles...
The first mono appeared, a Beta ridden by Pedro Ole.
Also the Montesas were 330 and looked different than the 349.
Besides Eddy on the Honda, I was fan of the Montesa 330, as I just bought a new Cota 349 with (ugly) grey mudguards.
Toni Gorgot came back from Scottland with a win on the Cota 330 !!!
All pics taken by me (19 years old at that time) and scanned 25 years later to share with you.
At the Start. What a historic document !
