5 . \ ~ unbeatab e; - / • 1981 For the last three years, when it came time for Cycle Newstwest readers to pick their Rider of the Year, each time they overwhelmingly voted for land use activist Louis Henry McKey, the Phantom Duck of the Desert. McKey outpolled the likes of three-time World Road Racing Champ Kenny Roberts, National MX and Supercross champs such as Bob Hannah, Kent Howerton,- Broc Glover, Danny laPorte and Chuck Sun, top dirt trackers and road racers like Steve Eklund and Wes Cooley, or anybody else you can think of. And he's done it handily. Will 1981 be different? Will the astounding success of Bruce Penhall, who -in 1981 won the World Individual Speedway Championship, the World Pairs Speedway Championship, the U.S. National Speedway Championship and the California State Speedway Championship, push him to the top of the balloting? How about the banner year enjoyed by road racer Eddie Lawson and motocrosser Broc Glover, each of whom won two championships in 1981 ! Here are the rules for the 1981 Cycle Newstwest Rider of the Year contest. Any rider i's eligible as long as they live in the Cycle Newstwest circulation area, the boundary of which is the eastern borders of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota and North Dakota. This ballot will be printed only once, and no facsimilies will be. accepted. All ballots must be postmarked on or before Dec. 4. Results will be announced in our big year-end issue!
