Gang,

Well, it's been a long time but we are getting going on our next film..."1981". The story of America's Motocross des Nations team. We are starting to get organized on this and hope to be in Italy this September shooting. Not much to say so far other than it will happen. Look for more info, teasers, etc. in the near future.

If anyone has or know of high quality photos, snap shots, film, video, etc. from these two races in Lommel and Bilstein from 1981 please contact me. If you know people in Belgium or Germany that might have archives, let them know. BTW...just to tease everyone...I do have BOTH motos, complete from the Lommel round in 1981. Never seen in the US before....but you'll have to wait. Smile

Very cool. Can't wait!!!

One little bit of history about the team comes from Steve Wise. If I remember correctly Steve was one of the riders originally chosen for the team. I believe he ended up getting sick and was not able to make it. According to Steve, Johnny O was his replacement.

I remember getting a Motocross Des Nations T shirt for sending money towards the effort that year. Still have it somewhere.

Also, all we plan on shooting this year at Maggiora and perhaps are opening and closing the film with 2016 MXoN!

I'd also like to include Magoo's amazing performance a year later.

Just some food for thought.

Magoo! I started wearing number 34 after I saw Magoo with that number in the 1982 Carlsbad usgp.
