An epic photo of the start of the 1970 Peoria TT National with Jim Rice (No. 24) getting a great start on his BSA. Rice ran off and hid from the rest of the field. Expert rookie David Aldana (No. 38X) finished second and Gene Romero (No. 3) rounded out the podium finishers making it a Brit bike sweep of the podium (BSA, BSA & Triumph). Others visible in the shot include Chuck Palmgren (No. 6), Skip Van Leeuwen (No. 59), Eddie Mulder (No. 12), Jim Corpe (No. 48), Mark Brelsford (No. 87), Dusty Coppage (No. 32) and Dave Hansen (22Y).
