Original Toronto Star caption: A little 'easy rider' in every boy. Everybody's out for the openroad this summer with the sun and heat sparking the thirst for adventure. And these gocarters just north of Whitby on Highway 12 are no execption, driving around the curve and fighting to break away from the pack during the 1.75-mile circuit. It looks like an easy win for young Sterling Moss in the lead, but who can say that some late starter won't edge him out in the stretch?
