Does he still ride? When I got started at age 11, my goal was to still be riding at age 80. Unfortunately it ended at 43.

Has he worked in the industry non-stop since he was a racer?  If so, that means he's been in the business for ~60+ years?  That will be a tough record for anybody to break.

For one the man still looks great at 80 years young. I remember  watching him at the Trans AM event AT Rabbit Run in Plano TX had to be 8 years old watching the number # 104.

You can say you like motocross but you can't say that you like motocross more than Roger DeCoster.
