Bob Hannah was always serious...when racing

Friday, November 18, 2011


Here's MX superstar Bob Hannah, prepped and ready for one of his last great rides at the Unadilla 250cc USGP.  Note the czar of motocross, Bevo Forte, in the background.

Motocross was wonderful in that it carried such a wide array of personalities.  I never knew Hannah as a friend, but observed him over many years.  Very interesting character. He was fast on the track, the king of practical jokes, and a master at mind games with other riders.

There were many good stories to tell, but it's not my place to tell them.  Go ask Hannah if you want the real juicy ones.
