a good speedway rider, I remember him from performances in Poland.

This guy is a legend and very knowledgeable

No Fear

Just reminiscing about PDYCMCC in the 80s which led me to this interview. I remember Carl,he was absolutely fearless, he wasn't very big but he was flat out everywhere. The guy who he was referring to was George Grundy who was my best mates dad (I'd go as far as to call him my second dad) he taught me and hundreds of others to ride. Great memories of a fantastic place

44:18: One of the most intelligent guys form the sport on a microphone today. The EPA forced 4-stroke is the most damaging thing to have happened in the history of the sport, and it may end the sport. I wish the industry was sharp enough and brave enough to tell the EPA (and the likes) to stay out of our business. I guess we think a dictatorship has a right to govern our free enterprise. It does not. Notice, the dictatorship left communist china alone, so guess who they really are. The same thing happened wit the price of a new car/truck. How about we "wake up" and tell the EPA's to "pack sand", before they destroy everything that more free people built?

4:40: "It was an honor to get T-boned by Hannah." lol I always liked Jeffs perspective. If you came to the states to race pro MX/SX in the late 80's and got a factory ride, you were as worthy as anybody in the world. This man put Australian Motocross on the map of Motocross. Glad to see him in good shape today. Doug in Michigan

Any new speedway interviews soon Lee mate?

Would have been nice to talk about some of his winning bikes, i.e., gasgas 125 ,ktm 125 etc and not just how pretty his riding kit was 🤔

Great stuff, Sam was a phenomenal rider. Also his autobiography is really good, painfully honest.

I remember him back in the day, he was very good, happiest days of my life. South Wales School Boys Scramble Club had some great riders. Homesy was one of the best we had, but a guy called Jason Burrows was the best I see on a bike. If you seen him ride back in the day you would know what I mean.

Legend and true gent

Glad he mentioned Jason Burrows - he had immense talent and could have gone to the very top but things just didn’t go his way with injuries.

Being a Vegas native I got to watch you at that National, it was amazing!

Ultimate pro, years and years of 9-10 point averages all over Europe.

Broady 1975 Hull Boulevard Stadium, I’m 12 he let me wheel his bike into the pits, I’m 61 now but still remember it like yesterday.

Great interview idea for you, (but my comments are censored like communism does, and only 5 here with this very good interview). Interview "Joe Montgomery". He was the CEO of Cannondale bicycles when he heroically tried to manufacture a MX bike (and quads) in the USA, before MXA took turn in tearing them down (I rejected a job offer 6 months before, luckily). Boy, would we love to hear the story of the man and company that was destroyed. Yes, I know, some was their fault in hasty development, but the fact remains and is quite common, competitive forces did not want to compete, and helped destroy the heroic company. Not interesting enough? What can be more interesting?

What a great interview. Thank you sir. I know some of his dark side because of The Whiskey Throttle Show, and it was great to see the best of mike. He really He went from good, to bad, to good, and retired a very good man IMO. I don't think he was capable of lying. That alone, is a very honorable trait IMO. Other then "Unionizing the riders", he ended with a great "life spirit" IMO. We don't need unions against the FIM establishment. We need real free enterprise competition against the FIM establishment. I say the track owners, (That the factories pick, and we are always in competition for a race date.), and the factories run the racing. I call it, "Taking the sport back". We don't need unions, when we are the management, and the sport can grow to it's most proficiency as it is on our interests only. Doug in Michigan

Only 12 comments after 3 years? Maybe we should consider rejecting the destructive policy of censorship? I say it is sad, what happened in Mike Healey's life latter life after MX retirement, and it is not usual for pro racers retiring from MX. I don't believe anybody is "born bad", but Mike took some real bad "left turns", after his great MX carreer? I see the major problem as, not knowing how to do anything to make money after racing. Racers retiring, who did not make millions to bank on, and have no other education,---are in trouble. There still is a chance there there is a family business to go back to, or a sharp guy will start a business (Travis, DrD.), but that is now rare it looks. So, they have to find another direction that is best for them, so they think, is to work for the state, Fire/Police/Media today also, etc. Good pay, good benefits, just no freedom in what you do for work,---even if some mandated tasks may be immoral. Then, down the ladder is what is left of a free market business/job at the service level; Roofs, construction, etc. Art is often looked at as a good avenue, and it could be, but usually is not to make a living from. Then, maybe with other levels I did not mention, we have the "totally lost", who allowed their life to be damaged to the point of early death, and even suicide; Brian Swink, Tyler Evans, Mike Healey. What is the answer? A 10 year career used to be considered a long career before the easier to ride 4-stroke, (which immediately extend careers in real time starting in 1998.), and my idea could have been implemented then. Now, a 20-year career is happening, and they still think with a terrible HS education. The answer is getting a productive 4-year degree ("Productive" being the operative word there), part time (they can handle 2-class a semester on the average.) while they race pro. 2 classes a semester will take 8 years if you wanted to complete it, (you may find great opportunity before completion with what you know, and will have a decision to make, from two good choices for a change in our lives.). I suggest engineering, that makes you think, the study of reality (so important today), and something productive and as free enterprise as you can love, (excluded environmental, state organized industries). So when you retire, you have a place to go, where you want to go. Here is the bottom line folks, and I have experienced it: After almost failing HS, I decided to do something with my life and started studying manufacturing (production or poverty is our choice), So I flipped burgers for 5 years while earning a 2 year degree in machine tool tech. Got better grades because I was paying for it and paide attention--for the first time. But nothing spectacular. Then, I still was not making any money, (kids in the 80's did have disposable income though. I did buy a new 86 YZ250 and a new mini truck in 86/87 while making $4.00/hr.), and a buddy of mine talked me into getting an engineering degree, so I got two of them, (very parallel, much the same classes), 4-year degrees that took me 8 years part time while working full time. By year 6, I BECAME THE SHARPEST GUY IN THE CLASS, in the later and tougher classes. So I have come to the conclusion that our brains are like our bodies. They more we exercise it, the better it gets also, and that is A WONDERFUL THING!! In fact,---it is what being human is all about. "Explorer the tings that we don't know ("rationally", very important), as it is the only way for mankind to grow. Learn the things that we find we cherish, to help insure mankind does not perish." Yea, I think about those things. Doug in Michigan What are the chances this makes it though the obvious censorship?
