We were moving around some boxes in the basement recently and I found a box that my mom had packed up from years ago..stuff from when I was a kid and teenager. In there was this autograph from one of my first hero’s as a kid.
I had watched Jo Jo when I was a kid may times in the expert class here in New England. He was my favorite rider by far..his speed and strength on a tracks like Southwick was amazing to me. I got this autograph sticker at a National at Southwick. I don’t know what the year was but I remember him battling with Hannah and Broc Glover and the guys I had seen in Motocross Action magazine!
I walked every inch of that track many times eating only fried dough and coke all day..?
I remember myself and everyone in that large crowd yelling and screaming for our favorite riders, that was such a great race and a great time to watch motocross.
After the race was over I went to the pits, if I remember right they were mostly just vans and box trucks etc, and tried to get a look at my favorite riders..Jo Jo and Hannah were talking and all us kids were asking for autographs and I got this!! For a long time it was on my desk and after a while it was joined by a few motocross trophies of my own.
Watching and reading about those guys made me want to race, so glad I had the opportunity to do it.
I’m sure you guys have some similar stories..
