photo of newspaper by Peter Paice might jog some memories
Is that Clive Halls mentioned in the C grade results?
I'm thinking this is the 1975 3-day
120 riders! and by the scores it looks like A, B anc C grades might have ridden the same line

I rode C Grade at the Cootamundra Three Day Trial in 1974 on a TY250A.
B Grade on a TY250B in 1975.
B Grade on a TY175B in 1976.
I Observed at the 1977 event due to my third broken scaphoid.
I rode B grade at the 1979 event on a TY250E.
