Leon Wolek invented energy drinks
Sunday, January 29, 2012I loved candid shots. Here's Ricky Johnson hamming it up for the camera while Leon Wolek was doing his best to promote Leon's QEM...the precursor to what became the huge energy drink market.
Leon was mixing his special elixir and getting to some of the top riders. Barnett used a lot of it. This was still the early era of the sport and hawking your goods in the pits didn't yet requier a million dollar commitment for site rights.
As I peruse all these great pics from yesteryear, it's like a time portal into the past. I'm amazed at the memories that are triggered when seeing these images. That's why I want to share on Retro Motocross. It's sorta magic.
