A photo of Honda teammates Rick Johnson and Jeff Stanton side by side
while taking the checkered flag at the Gatorback National MX in Florida was
pictured on the cover 30 years ago. Johnson won both 250cc motos for
his first win in a year. Mike Kiedrowski edged out Jean-Michel Bayle for
the 125cc-class win... We had coverage of the Atlanta Amateur Supercross,
where Mike Roth was the top big-
bike rider, and Ricky Carmichael
the top Minicycle rider… Kevin
Hines won the National Enduro
Series opener in Texas.
