I'm friends in FB with Cindy Sieman--Super Hunky's daughter who has been keeping everyone abreast about her Dad and sharing his legendary stories "From the Saddle".
Anyway, Saturday they had a memorial ride out to the Husky monument and erected this awesome Memorial. There's some pretty cool videos too. And she plans to upload more when she gets better WI Fi service. 😎
There sure are a lot more Memorial stuff out there then the last time we were there on a LA to Barstow to Vegas Dual Sport ride......
Here's a good write-up 👍

Cindy says she plans to do it every year. What a Gal--Pops would be proud. 
Thanks for posting this Gary. So cool that his daughter did this and a well deserved memorial to keep Rick's memory alive. Probably the most talented writer that any motorcycling magazine has ever employed.
You're welcome Ed and agree 💯% with you. Cindy has done a GREAT job representing her Dad-- the Legend Rick Sieman that hooked so many of us into following Dirtbike Magazine and the sport we Love for the last 50 years or so.
Thank you Gary. It meant a lot to me to see how many people showed up to ride out to the Husky Monument and to camp that weekend. It was actually what my dad loved about the sport and community. Good people, sweet bikes, and endless desert. This would not have been possible without Steve-O and Sue Lee organizing the event. Chris Moore from World Wide Welding took the vision and created a marker that truly represented my Pops. I will forever be grateful to everyone.
Always great stories.
Back in the 70's we'd all be riding our dirt bikes at the sand pits in santee California.
As soon as the next issue came out, we'd all ride over to the nearby A/W rootbeer drive thru benches, and immediately read his column.
Laugh our asses off at his stories, and characters, then down a rootbeer, and then off to go roost each other with sand for the rest of the day.
Good times.

That's awesome, can't wait to check it out someday soon!
I wonder if that chain was ever subjected to Rick's chain lube tests on his W.I.T.D. machine?!
Godspeed Super Hunky!
Outstanding! As a Michigan teenager, Rick’s writing helped us feel connected to the dirt bike world during those snowbound winter months…. We used to steal a copy from the bundle in front of the drugstore on the way to Junior High….Ride On Super Hunky!
Memories…
Awesome.
Thanks for sharing this with us.
ha! great story and yes Super Hunky's writing was like no other and I too looked forward to it each month.
I would bring the mag into my boring English class in HS and read that instead! I learned more from Rick!
You're Welcome Cindy--it's the least I can do now if we can only get the FREAKING BUREAUCRAT KNUCKLEHEADS to recognize your Dad into the AMA Hall of Fame I might send them my membership $$ again!
I would love to see that be a thing. He wasn't on the list this year.
