Interview
M
otorcycle racing is an extremely
specialized sport. It takes fine-tuned
levels of skill and bravado to compete
successfully in almost any discipline, but what
if just one aspect of the sport isn't enough?
This happens to be the case for 24-year-
old Andy DiBrino, the Oregon resident who,
along with capturing the first two Super Hoo-
ligan National Championship titles, competes
with distinction in MotoAmerica, American
Flat Track and Pro Motocross, making him
one of the most versatile riders in the country
to strap on a helmet.
DiBrino is a full-time racer in the old-school
way, earning his dollars by hunting sponsors,
fixing bikes, driving all over the country and
racing anything he can get his hands on. In
one week, earlier this year, DiBrino raced the
Pro Motocross 125 All Star race at his home-
town of Washougal, drove halfway across
the country to Sturgis for the AFT and Super
Hooligan races (the latter of which he won),
then got back in the van and headed to So-
noma for the MotoAmerica Stock 1000 race,
where he took fourth place.
There's an air of On Any Sunday to DiBri-
no, and we caught up with him on the verge
of his second Super Hooligan title win at the
Moto Beach Classic at Huntington Beach last
month.
