An icon in the sport of motocross has passed.

If it all the same to you guys, this is the way I would like to remember Danny.

This is the EPITOME of what Magoo was! Quit wasn't even a fore thought in his vocabulary. I dont know whether to cuss or cry right now.

Winning, on the bike backward, pulling the throttle cable and working the clutch.

One of a kind.

This is my favorite picture of all time.. If a regular picture says1000 words this picture says 10,000 words. Love it. Thanks for posting. That is now my screen saver on my computer and will be til this computer doesn't work anymore. The looks by the fans in the back round is priceless too.


RIP Danny Magoo

As a young man I went to Danny's first European race at Wakes Colne in England,
He jumped further and higher than anyone had ever seen,
Out of the bomb hole, at eye level with Lofty Lucas he landed past the next bend and was gone,
I pushed my way to the front of the crowds in the pits between moto's and shook his hand,
He looked me straight in the eye's and had a very strong grip (no surprise their !).
I just wanted to share this,
rest easy Danny, and thank you.

Thank you also for the pix.

even my wife, who is at the other end of the motohead spectrum, knows who Magoo is Smile she watched "The Story..." DVD with me when I got it, and to this day she remembers "If you don't crash sometimes, you ain't going fast enough"

What a terrible piece of news to wake up to. A few weeks ago you had it right, FTE: What Magoo did at the '82 Motocross and Trophee des Nations is probably the single most dominant performance in the history of motocross. Danny was immortalized at that moment for many of us motocross fans.... What happened from 1985 on, with his accident and the pain he was forced to endure for the rest of his life was just tragic and sad.
Godspeed, Magoo.
