I was intending in this post to cover an article by the British ISDT Ace the late Ken Heanes covering his experience as a rider in an ISDT in Austria. However a surprise gift by email from our Euro correspondent of the final results of the ISDT of 1970 in Spain meant I bumped that story on for another post.
