92 - 27 - 21 Remembering Heros

For a few years there . . . it was becoming tragic on the AMA Grand National circuit.  #92 Rodney Farris, #27 Davey Camlin and #21 Will Davis all passed away from racing injuries. They were top riders too.  Pros.  There were a few others like Andy Tresser, Toby Jorgenson, Jimmy Sumner . . . some amateur riders.  Flat track has always been a dangerous way to make a living, but when the riders are personable and your heros . . . you forget how dangerous a sport this is -  in reality.   We can all hope 2014 is a safe year with Daytona starting the schedule this weekend.  Go fast, but ride smart  - so we can all be doing this for years to come.  Keep 'em on 2 wheels boys . . .
