This was his trophy case in the living room of his old house, i would sit up late at night and turn all the lights off in the room and have just the case illuminated and sit and stare. I swear i spent hours digging though it and every time i could find something i hadn't seen before. On a bad day he would always threaten to get rid of all that shit. We had some of the most wild times up there, its a shame he ever lost that house.

your second choice is correct BobbyM. I remember the write up on the race and the author specifically mentioned that.

I always wondered if he even knew where the brakes were on his bikes.


urbanlift posted my favorite Magoo pic.


Edited to add: Does anyone have a copy of the photo where he's jumping the stripped down Maico? That was another one I loved as a kid.

Has to be one of the five best ever moto images. when you look up determination in the dictionary they should show this picture.

Many nice pics.
MXdN(or TdN) pic I remember when it came out.
Got a few of him at Plymouth local on the RM; slides. Believe on KTM as well.
Good post; remember that pic with him on that "naked" Maico....
Thanks for the memories and stories everyone.

Magoo was a huge influence on me, for better or worse.

I took this one in 83 at Washougal with my moms 35mm. I was happy to have an adjustable shutter speed and cranked it up to 500 just for Magoo. I remember seeing it on On the Pipe's site and Lee saying he didn't know who took it...

I am a little too young to have witnessed him ride.... but I love seeing pictures of him back in his prime.


Thanks for the posts.... I have never seen the one with the broken handlebars... that is amazing

I was there that day at Indian Dunes when that pic was taken. It was during the week and he actually had a flat tire. Wasn't even part of the track, he was going up a steep incline by the first corner.

Magoo was unfreakenreal on a bike. In the moto dictionary of NO FEAR, there should be a picture of Danny.
