You guys are frickin boss! Go fast and no stallin and no fallin!!!!! Those Maicos were awesome bikes 💪💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@kurtvonfricken6829]

The Unadilla track was made for open class two strokes. I was lucky enough to be there to witness the Hannah-DeCoster battle in 1978 and actually saw Decoster take out the hurricane in the second moto. I was also there at the first 250 USGP when the Americans went against the Russians. Marty Tripes won the whole thing over Honda team mate Jimmy Ellis by 0.8 seconds! Carla clinched his first World Championship at that race which I believe was the finest ever in the history of the sport.
