From the back cover: The scramble recorded here took place at the Davos Ranch in Woodbridge, New York and was promoted by the Davos Motorcycle Club. As at all AMA-sanctioned scrambles, a doctor and ambulance were standing by and all riders wore AMA-approved helmets. The doctors, by the way, are rarely needed. The riders are there for a serious purpose and they pursue it with intelligence and skill.
This recording is unique. No one has ever attempted to record the excitement of a Motorcycle Scramble up a ski slope for the simple reason that Scrambles have previously been held on somewhat tamer terrain. If, in listening to it, you decide to forsake the modes of transportation for the motor-driven two-wheeled kind, we won't blame you. The rabbits and the wood chucks might complain but don't listen to their chatter. Just tighten your helmet, open the throttle, and head for the slopes full-bore. – Ralph Freas - High Fidelity Columnist, Esquire Magazine.
