Awesome quality of video. I've seen early 80s stuff that you can barely make out what's going on. Those guys are haulin!! Big crowds

Those dudes just pinning it on that bumpy straight before the uphill on those 500 pound bikes with hardly no gear on is impressive! You start to swap on one of those things and it'll throw you to the ground before you even know you were swapping

'Scrambles' was pretty regularly aired on British and European TV. So, proper film work, by professional crews.

We haven't come much further, since the 50s / 60s and 70s, if at all, with regards to quality, mainstream coverage of our sport.

I used to ride my dads Triumph 250 Trail Blazer in the woods and at Rio Bravo. Talk about a heavy tank. I know how them guys feel in the video.

That's funny, at the end of the video the narrarator says "remarkablely few accidents due to the soft ground and the skills of the rider."

So the video finishes and YouTube recommends "most insane Motocross crashes 2015" with a rider just endoing 30 ft in the air. Shits changed I see...
