Say what you want to about Jody and mxa, but everybody over 30 can appreciate this for what it is, a well written article from someone that truly loves our sport.

"Motocross racing is lost on the young"
Kinda true.
"It’s sad that old people don’t risk their lives more often—it would make living a few more years seem more precious"
I don't know how many otmx guys are in here, if so you know these guys,
Barry will be the young guy in the 80 class next year
Each year Dick runs his age for his number, next year he's running number 85 What a stud. The fact that he can load his bike, get his gear on, and get on his bike alone puts him miles past the average 85 year old, the fact that he still gets around a motocross track very well at 85 is mindblowing....

Good job at putting it into perspective.
. I must have not been the only one thinking that though. Now I’m 40+, and the age class guys are just as fast as most the A/B kids and theyre the same guys that used to kick my ass 20 years ago. AAAANND no more split programs !!!
Can’t wait to be in the 50 and 60+.
