Hannah is a 100% heart champion. NO ONE wanted to win more than he did.

The Unadilla back hill people natural woop stair steps were epic.

THE OTHER SIDE SUCKS !!!

Even visiting him at his home and elk hunting Bob was very focused.

Seen pics of that T shirt many times, but does anyone know the story behind the "Original Open Bikers" lettering on their T shirts?

The real Unadilla! You didn't need a stop watch to see who the fast guys were, they would pick lines and fly up the rough hills in a few hops!

Looks like a smooth parking lot compared to XMas,Mi. Sat race.  Sun not quit as bad .   4 states of riders & Canadians 25 in 125 12+ class 43+ hp more than a factory 250 1980 bike .  With all the new riding techniques & with high intensity to the checkers.  Any top 15 rider in 125 could win a250 race in 1980.  Our legends are great but the current crops of riders are amazing.  Check a local race out , your in for a shock.

I have a cabin in Paradise. I need to get over there and check that place out one of these days!

edit: I'm going to be driving through your neck of the woods Saturday on my way west. Taking a bucket list month long trip out west!

My first time was 79 and haven't missed to many since.

When he started winning nobody really knew who he was, and a few of the riders talked shit about it. So Bevo had the shirt made when he was Bobs mechanic to make fun of it.
