BLAST FROM THE PAST

Marty Moates changed the moto game in a big way with his dominant USGP win on his LOP Yamaha in 1980, but he built a reputation as one of the tough guys of sport when his career was blossoming. Marty raced a handful of different machines from Husqvarna to Ossa. This shot is from 1977 and was used in the SIDI boot catalog.

ICONIC MOMENTS

If you ever wanted to know what drove Kurt Caselli to be a champion, this photo says it all. Rather than DNF at this National Hare and Hound when his machine broke, Kurt pushed it to finish line. This no quit attitude led to 3 AMA National Hare and Hound National Championships, 3 WORCS Championships and elite status as an ISDE star. Photo Mark Kariya

WOLF: BACK IN THE DAY

I really enjoyed the Honda XR600 after getting some riding tips from Scott Summers (he said ride it like an auto, no clutch, throttle and brake hard- it won’t stall!)  and after talking with my Aussie friend Geoff Ballard (a true off-road hero). He said the best mod was to put an XR250 tank and saddle on the machine. It completely slimmed up the ergos and made the XR much easier and fun to ride. I raced this wagon at several events including the Idaho City Qualifier and did quite well in 1995.
