The 500cc U.S. GP Motocross at Glen Helen was our cover story 30 years

announced this would be the last race of his career, went out with the
overall win. He traded moto wins with Rick Johnson. Mike Kiedrowski
took the 125cc-class win... Scott Parker won the Indy Mile for the fifth
time... We covered the grand
opening of the Motorcycle Heritage
Museum. Special guests included
Jay Leno and Willie G. Davidson.
