Despite being far from the epicenters of motorcycle racing, having a relatively small population, and winters up to six months long, riders from Minnesota and AMA District 23 have made a mark at all levels of motorcycle competition, and across many disciplines. There is a long history of producing amateur racers who have done well on the national stage, many of whom have gone onto successful professional careers.
The author and self-proclaimed Minnesota Motorcycle Racing Historian has a passion for telling their stories. It all started at MXBob.com in the late 1990s. Originally a place to consolidate District 23 amateur event schedules, it eventually grew to include race reports and much more. Most of the stories in this book are based on articles on the web site.
This book takes a look at some of the more successful riders born in Minnesota. Riders such as Tom Benolkin and Donny Schmit. There are also race reports that highlight various disciplines at the national level and a few web site favorites, including the entire “Old Motocross Rider’s Guide” series, “Kicking the Motocross Habit”, and “What I learned from watching ‘Supercross the Movie’.”
This second edition added a few stories from the triumphant return of MXBob.com; a look at the Supercross and US national Motocross season in 2021 (told from a very Minnesota perspective), a story about the author’s trip back to Millville in 2015, and an excerpt from the (projected) runaway bestseller “Pioneers of Minnesota Motocross”. The excerpt weaves in the last Trans-AMA series, the history of Millville, and the Benolkin brothers.
