2. Who was Gary Nixon and why was he controversial in the 70s?
In 1976, he laid claim to the World Prize Formula 750 Road Racing title, but was denied the championship after international politics cost him a victory, and ultimately the title, at the Venezuelan round of the series.
3. Name ten people in KSRC that have met me.
Madkaw, Colette, Possum, Gos, Red Dave, Dave #3, Cath, Neka, Mick Dundee, and Phil

Yes 10/10
I would have also accepted Kaz, Mario, Rob and Smitty here in Melb, Mike-S in Sydney and Jason and Scott in Adelaide (I think Scott was one of the ex-SA guys who rides a Trumpy).
If we need clues for #1 I can post a
slightly bigger picture tonight. Something you might like to consider is that the bike in question (from the 70s) has had it's fairing removed.

You would've met Stace on that ride we did with Marty leading last year! Or maybe he didn't speak to you because of the Hoonda
