DoctorJD,

Your avatar pic just brought back my favorite memory of watching "The Legacy of Motocross". Mikkola and Hannah were some seriously bad dudes in their day!
One part I remember Ricky Johnson saying, "I saw him walking around sporting a speedo and clogs and knew he was a bad dude!"

Chuck Norris has nightmares about Hekki. If you look closely at the picture, Hannah has peed his pants a little just from standing too close to him. Fear of heights is called Acrophobia, fear of Hekki Mikkola is called "logic".

Seriously, two of my favorite riders of all time. They were both bad ass in their own right.

What exactly put Mitch in a wheelchair? I don't think I've ever heard the official story.

Before Pro Circuit was a household name, these were the shop rats from 1979. (From left to right) Bill Keefe, Lance Sallis, Steve Wiseman, Jody Weisel, Mitch Payton (with CR the cocker spaniel), Mike Monaghan (in the rare PCP T-shirt) and Steve Ballmer. The photo was shot by a very young Adam Duckworth.

He was a desert racer and had a get off during a race. He tells the story at 3:30 in the video.

Thanks for posting that. For some reason I thought it may have been a car wreck or something. Crazy that I've followed this sport for nearly 20 years and I am just now learning about how Mitch hurt himself.
