    Yeah, that article is pretty good but it say's bicycle motocross, motocross racing & track behind his house which sounds like a motocross track but is really about 10 miles or more of the best tight trail woods riding you could imagine. He races harescrambles & endurocross & does really well.

    I agree, at first I thought they were talking bicycles...and I was pretty sure he was a motocrosser before I read the article

    I'm 6'5" ish and like the Huskies because they are tall man friendly, Rick is about a foot taller than me and makes his bike look like a mini-bike. Next time I feel like complaining about bars too low, shifter too short, brake pedal too high, seat too low or pegs to far forward I'll think of him.

    He makes that TE310 look like a mini-bike............Although he has a weight disadvantage when racing, being so tall makes up for that and more, in that he can manhandle a bike in ways the rest of us can only dream of.
