Wow, I never new you Yanks were into our M&R scene!
We used to witness the punch-ups between the Mods n Rockers at the seaside towns in the sixties ( I used to ride sidecar with my Dad & mum - Triumph Thunderbird )
Even to this day if youre over a certain age youre asked which tribe you belonged too !

Sundie, if you decide to go, PM me, 'cause I too, might want to do that. We could meet up somewhere, like N.Y. or Pa.

Back in the mid 60s we here in NY had our own version of the Mods vs Rockers only ours was the Hoods vs Squeeks. Maybe some of the old timers on this board will remember this?.............BG
