THE WEEKLY FEED: HANNAH’S COMEBACK• KING OF THE MOTOS • SOCIAL RUBS

Thomas Mueller captured this incredible shot of Bob Hannah attempting a comeback after a nasty injury in 1979 left him on the sidelines for more than a year.  In 1981 Hannah returned, though he could never quite regain the form that made him the most dominant American motocross racer in 1978. Love the classic Hannah style, Scott boots, open faced helmet and the first big name to don Smith goggles.

At the time it was one of the best 4-stroke motocrossers attempting to break into the 2-stroke dominated world.
