This photo was taken in about 1960 and shows Ignacio riding a very simple no stop section on his Mimsa motorcycle. You can see the balcony to the left and the garage to the right, where we have already been. This was the very first trial of San Antonio.

This was the day that the formula one drivers including Niki Lauda and James Hunt came to San Antonio. Other French riders came as well but we couldn't remember their names. Ignacio is giving a demonstration to the drivers, with Paco shouting enthusiastically to him to his left. A truly great photo. This section was next to the area where you have just seen. Barry Sheene came to San Antonio many times as he was a successful Bultaco rider. His father, Frank Sheene helped with the grape harvesting when he was here.

In fact you will see the exact place soon. This must have been a great day.

A brilliant photo. Here is Paco, calling to the riders who are nearby, instructions for the trial. You have already seen this place, it is where the dogs were standing and where the kennels now are.
