Bob, San Jose's one and only Sam Arena. Tom Sifton's gifted rider. Be it flat track or hillclimb. I was able to have a great conversation with him when I was a much younger lad. Wonderful gentleman! That bike he's on was famous for finishing all it's races one year with no mechanical failures and Tom gave it to Sam. He also set Sam up with his own H_D dealership in Palo Alto. CA.

Says its Sam Sr. (So maybe he ain't the one-and-only!)
Here he is with Armando Magri, etc.

Yes Tom he had a son, Sam Jr. and Magri was the H-D dealer here in Sacramento and that's his #2 machine. He was also a founding member of our AMCA Chapter here in town and a very good friend of Sam Sr as well as fellow competitors.DrSprocket
