NETA History Project

by
John Hoffman, Len Thompson & Don Sweet. The photos were taken 45 years apart, in the same spot & by the same photographer (Len’s father).

The NETA History Project was started in January 2023 by Steve Christensen & David Scarbro. The goal is to organize and preserve the history of NETA and regional trials through documents, pictures and video. Alan Gasbarro, Leo O’Shea, George Truesdale & Dan Williams helped by contributing material and providing recollections.

This history is a “work in progress”. Over time, we hope to add more material about (and from) many veteran riders in New England. If you have something to contribute, please contact history@newenglandtrials.com.

The documents and pictures are stored on Google Drive. Videos are stored on YouTube. All of this information organized and presented through the NETA website.
