Jan Opperman, on motorcycles

 From the October 20, 1960 Oakland Tribune.

the Oakland Mile

A story from the March 1955 issue of Speed Age. The by line says Les Radbruch but I believe Don Radbruch wrote it and then credited his brother Les. That's the way he told it to me.

Oakland Speedway, big cars and stock cars

Nice old footage of the high banks in Oakland. There are a couple books on the subject available at Coastal181 here and here.
