JS 7's influence, where are the young black guys in mx/sx?

That's so cool I had to do it. 41 years ago could push out the garage and go ride . I don't even remember why I wanted to ride - no one I knew rode anything. I remember that I had posters all over my room of the late-70s moto heros and was dying to emulate them. But I was a nobody from PA and had no one to teach me. I bought my first dirt bike at 15, and I've been riding ever since. My kids have all ridden, and my best days are me and my 13 year old boy at the track together. You meet all walks of life at the track, but they are mostly good people, regardless of background.

I learned to hunt in that field, and my trap line started down in the gully then went 5 miles out into the woods and fields. It's all gone now. Houses, churches, schools. Bet there's not a dirt bike in the whole neighborhood, nor anyone with the budget and desire to start. Sad.

Richie Owens was pretty good in the mid to late 2000's
