Has any team manager ever won titles with 3 brands in their career before?

RD was the Man on a bike, and is the Man as a manager. Unlikely to ever be seen again.

I'm sure I'm sure 99% of the time. If not I add a ? as to not get hassled by jerkies on vital!

Kehoe rode for HoT and was a manager there at YoT, not sure that he had started managing when they were still Honda...

Also, he looks like Peter North. Creepy.

Erik Kehoe was first a rider at HoT and after a pro career ending crash at Mt Morris (1994 I believe. ..if not 1995) Erik became Team Manager. I was one of the people that help carry Erik off on the stretcher. It was such a bummer. Only an hour earlier we'd all been at breakfast having a good time and looking forward to the day. Phil Alderton spent 11 or 14 thousand dollars to fly Erik to California for treatment in an air ambulance. Just another example of the way Phil took care of his friends.

I'm sure that he also worked for Kawasaki early on, although I have no idea whether he was officially in a team manager role.

Dave Gowland was first over Team Green Kawasaki (amateur team), then was with Extreme racing (early Rockstar Racing), the off to Thor, then back to Rockstar Racing, now he's at Monster Energy. So Dave managed Kawasaki at the amateur level, and Rockstar during their Suzuki, KTM and the very beginning of their Husqvarna era. He also won a title while the team was on KTM (Jason Anderson). I don't think he was team manager at Star Yamaha?

How many times has Roger been team manager of a winning MXdN team? How man times was he a rider on a winning MXdN team? He is the Man.

Someone post that pic from the late 70's of Roger sitting in the chair reading, and the HOT euro chick coming out of the tent. I bet he rode a few motos with her.

He is "The Man"... Wink On and off the track "accomplishments".

Might be a dumb question but why are there guys with Kawi shirts in there?

Yup, Kawasaki one of our supporters that keeps us going.
Theres another picture, I can't find it with the stage full of other teams. Many managers came over to support Rodger and its a good shot. Marty Smith was up there as well.

And you guys do a great job, very cool thing you are doing, and also supporting Gannon is another bonus.

I don't think anyone will ever surpass his list of accomplishments. Do you know he even had a signature BMX bike. I like picks of him with his old bikes. Some mag, I think it was Racer X, had cool old school one I can't seem to find.
