Go the Rat

16 years ago

If there’s one brand that evokes more memories and classic stories than any other in the history of Aussie motocross, it’s Go The Rat. The iconic brand symbolised an epic era in Australian motocross, and was worn by everyone who was anyone in the 1980s. Thanks to Vince Tesoriero, Andrew Clubb, Jim Scaysbrook, Geoff Ballard, Stephen Gall and Vaughan Style, the Transmoto office has spent the past month awash with absolutely classic Go The Rat photos and artwork. Seeing as we just couldn’t fit them all in the 10-page article in issue #3, here’s some more pictorial gold, along with a few quotes Transmoto contributor, Grant O’Brien, also couldn’t squeeze in to the mag feature.
