If you're a fan of MX / SX racing, this is a pretty fun video.

You must agree, this guy's in the early years had more guts and nuts.

Protective gear, smocking, drinking and most the suspension.

I was thinking about that while watching the video, how some people will complain about a new bike because it's five pounds heavier than a competitor or has two less horsepower or 1/2 inch less suspension travel.  We've become quite soft.....

I used to watch a series called The Motocross Files that was a history of motocross and would focus on 1 rider at a time. DeCoster, Hannah, Tripes, etc. I thought it was pretty good.

For the last 9 years there has been a Carlsbad MX reunion, usually at Booze Brothers Brewing in Vista. I went to one, 2018 I think. Lots of old guys and MX bikes! I know some of those old guys were riders but I wasn't sure who was who.
