Miss Supercross Brittney ceorge, KTM's Mike

Nate Ramsey. Nate's
been here a couple
-
three
years.
We did that a couple
of
years
with dif-
ferent riders, but it's not everybody's cup
of tea,
you
know; it's kind
of harsh, it's sobering
-
it's
reality
-
thou8h. Hey, it's not a
completely unselfish thing that we're doing, because we
come
away from here with
images of bravery and devotion from the
parents,
something that's
etched
in my mind forever."
Freestyle
superstar Travis Pastrana
actually
got
the freest/le demonstration ball
going.
"l thought about doing a
jump
demonstration, but thought,
'nah,"'
Bauer said.
"l
didn't
even
run
it by
[the
hospital]. And then, last
year,
I was taking with Pastr-ana
and he said,
'hey
man, les do a
iump
demo out there.'That was his comeback
year
and I told him,
'you're
not
iumping
anything,'
so I
talked toJeff Tilton, ran it by him, then talked to the hospital
- it's odd, the last thing
you'd
expect them to say was,
'yes.'
But
they were totally receptive.
They said,
'hey
sounds like a
great
idea.'
So the next thing
you
know
we're working out the insurance; Red Bull underwrote
the
insurance,
Tilton brought out his ramps, and him and Renner
did their Iull
iump
deal
last
year.
They
loved it, the kids talked
about it all
year
long. The
administratoE' were calling me back in August."
No doub,t,
they'll be calling again this August.
