A post in another thread got me thinking, if you could spend a private ride day just play riding with any rider in their prime, who would you pick? I guess in fairness since our sport is broken down into 2 diciplines, pick 2 riders.

Mine would probably be Yogi and MC

Bailey is a great one. I might have to add him to my list and have some competition between them to narrow it down to just 2 Laughing

The word "Hero" is a little extreme, but I would have liked to have ridden with Lechien & Matiasevich.

Robert, Barnett, Hannah, or Lechein. That guy they call the goat and the other one called the king would be interesting too.

At the industry cup I got to race against Emig and Ward. I started ahead of Emig on my smoker and had a battle with Ward. He passed me when I got held up by a crash, got him back when he got arm pump and then my seat fell off. Still one of the best motos I've gotten to do in a long time. I wouldn't say those guys were my heroes but I definitely admired them when I was younger.

I'm lucky enough to have done the day of riding thing with David Bailey a number of times, but the other choice is tough.

I'd feel like a tool with RC. Maybe Bubba, but only if he rides a 125 all day.

I remember riding with Godfrey once as a kid and was amazed by him. Can only imagine how fun it'd be to ride with one of the very top guys...

I'd pick Windham & Pastrana for sure

I always liked Barnett and he signed the gas tank on my 81 RM125. Hannah could join us.
