COVER -

Bill Hester (735) takes the holeshot for Race 1 of the AHRMA National Vintage Motocross event at Farm 14.

From The Editor

My first of two long trips this year involved a trip to Florida for a modern National Trials event with the NATC, followed by a short jaunt over to Alabama for some AHRMA racing at the infamous Farm 14 - getting a chance to visit the track and meet the legendary Kevin Windham in person was such an amazing opportunity. Albert Newmann gives us a great recap of the weekend’s racing later on in this issue, but the weather was great, the track was groomed perfectly to support vintage bikes, and there was some amazing racing all weekend long.

In my short time as a freelance photographer, I’ve had a chance to meet some pretty famous people. Because they’re famous, I’m expecting them to be stuck up and egotistical - to my delight, they’re just folks who like riding dirt bikes, just like the rest of us. Kevin Windham was no different. And seeing that man race with Sunday’s PVMX and NGMX crew - boy, is he fast!!!

I’d like to thank Kevin for giving me a place to stay for the event, and AHRMA for continuing to offer me these amazing events to attend.
