Too Hip
In 1982, Cycle News' Mark Kariya spent
the day with and took some classic shots
of motocross rising star, new Yamaha
factory 250cc support rider, and 1981
125cc Rookie of the Year Rick "Too Hip"
Johnson. Part of that time included
visiting Johnson's practice track in San
Diego. Mark, who still contributes to
CN to this day, interviewed Johnson for
our May 19 issue that year.
