championships to his credit, cuts the triple loose at Red Wing. |

Brent Donaldson charges the Red Wing hill on
his KTM. |
|
Chuck Neinfeldt has no throttle control

|
Craig Schultz goes for the freestyle trick
where you touch your helmet on the front fender...then remembers he

|
Dan Prebe aims his KTM 200 skyward... |
|
Danny Mears, also with national championship
trophies at home, wrings his triple for all it's worth... |
|

|
John Curtis takes an...interesting approach at
the hill at Mankato. ;) |

|
Nate Redmann prepares to remind us exactly why
he's sporting the 1N (National #1) plate in his class. |
|
Zach Degross uses his scary helmet to
intimidate his competitors. That, and his riding skill... |
|
Scott Juhlin in the early 70s at a hill in
Buffalo, MN. Dig that ribbed front tire! |

|
"Goose" Weaver full-throttle on his
