Those 80's girl racers

#1 Post by ns86 » Fri Feb 09, 2018 11:08 pm

Kathleen Coburn 77 and Toni Sharpless . Apparently they were a big hit at Suzuka 8 HR's in Japan mid 80's. I knew Kathleen quite well, she was around the shop a lot. The Molson girl on the right is the one that married Hef. I knew her too. Not my photo's. Got them from the Internet. Shannonville 2 wheeled Glory 70's and 80's on Facebook.

Great pics, never had anyone that easy on the eye in any bike shops I went into!

I wonder what they are up to nowadays? I bet theyd love to see these pics as well.

Brings back a lot of memories. It was more than a bike shop, more like a cool hangout in downtown Toronto. Carrie Leigh did a photo shoot at the dealership for a poster on a Virago. Wish I still had my copy!
