David Bailey was a comic character

I don't know what to comment on here...except the fact that motocross used to be silly and fun.  I'm long removed from the sport today, so I can't speak on what happens in the pits and off the racetrack.  But in the Retro Motocross era, there seemed to be a goofy gag and practical joke going on 24/7.

I believed my job while at Cycle News was to bring out the personalities of the riders and mechanics, to tell the behind-the-scenes story. Either there is nothing left to tell, or modern day journalists don't see it as necessary.

Was there more personality in the sport back then?  Leave a comment, I'd like to get your opinion.
