BLAST FROM THE PAST: JEFF FREDETTE

Mr. “ISDE” Jeff Fredette sits in the upper atmosphere of athletes who have transcended time with incredible results and superhuman longevity. His first ISDT event came in 1978 where he competed on a Penton and won a gold medal in Swedish ISDT. Suzuki was launching their PE line and Jeff got signed up and went gold in Germany, France and Italy in consecutive years from 1979-’81. His relationship with Kawasaki began in 1982 and continued until his final ISDE event in Argentina, 2014. During this time Jeff competed in 34 ISDT/E events and incredibly, finished the first 33 events! His final Six Days in 2014 was his first DNF, when his Kawasaki ate some sand and destroyed the engine.
