When did it click Mark? LOL
Ted, I have kept my 84 KTM to ride with you lads, I'll be renewing my "Heaven" membership in 2014
I dream is to see everyone catered for. I love MX/SX/VMX and I want to see the sport survive into the next generation and beyond, and my view is progression. You all know that.
We're not going to agree on all subjects, but, that's not a bad problem to have! a healthy debate (although heated at times) is a good thing.
Where our sport has suffered (this is not our fault) is that the heritage and history is being lost, there are very few up and coming mxer's or fans (unless their die hard) that know of our great champions. I have asked several people on a spare of the moment who is Stephen Gall? as sad as it is, they could not tell me! They called themselves real fans! i shook my head in disgust!
They could tell me who Gary Abblett, Arthur Beetson & Greg Chappell are!
It's sad!
I would consider myself a tragic! I'm familiar with the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 2000's! Because of my old man, i have lived, breathed, bathed in petrol and Castrol R all my life!
I'll keep coming back, even though i spit it from time to time. I have an interest, and its MX! My dream, is to see everyone accept everyone for every era, and accept we're all in this together for the greater good of the sport.
I love pre 75,70,65,60 etc! But, i'll be buggered if i want to ride them
I think dad shares the same opinion, as he only likes to look at them for a limited time these days:)
