I think a big part of this is when it happened. The U.S. latched on to MX in the mid/late 70's, and easily accessible riding areas resulted in a large quantity of new riders in the U.S. So, instead of having one or two top guys, you get 5-10 great riders capable of winning a race. Unfortunately, those days are gone Not many places left in the U.S. where you can ride right down your street into cornfields, woods, hills, or desert and ride until you empty your tank with nobody bothering you. That environment in the late 70's-80's produced a lot of riders. People talk about growing the sport....I'm more about growing the available riding areas.

I was in this race at 29 years old. The heat in the lava fields during the run made the race extremely difficult, and finishing was one of the highlights of my life. Thanks for posting the video and bring back so many memories.

I don’t think Bradshaw ever really rode well. He tried to push ppl off the tracks, crashed constantly and always rode dirty. He had some luck maybe. Then one day he basically fell off the face of the earth and never did anything worth mentioning in the sport ever again.

OW69 my all-time favourite race bike. Kenny's bike lives in Japan, not sure where Eddie's bike is. A shame Yamaha never made the OW69 a production racer, according to Kenny it was spinning the back wheel around the banking and halfway up the straight. Cojones the size of watermelons those boys, no electronics, crap tires and 200hp 700cc 2 stroke monsters. AWESOME.
