Bailey wadded it after leading Unadilla

Wednesday, May 2, 2012


Here's art in motion...David Bailey about to catch traction on the rough and demanding Unadilla track during a GP race.  As you well know my memory is fading, so David filled in the blanks:

"1982 first moto," reported Bailey when I showed him this image."Second moto, the uphill right after that one, I hit a haybale somebody moved and wadded and lost the overall, but at least I won the first moto. My first real big win.The next year I won the first moto AND the overall. Look how many people and how rough. THAT'S MX."

You said it bro, that was MX.  And you, my friend, were a big piece of the action.
