Description
"Bad Brad" Lackey as he is
called, started a quest of taking on the world to fulfil a dream.
After 10, long, hard, years of sacrifice
and struggle, Brad Lackey became America's first Motocross World Champion in 1982.
In the early 1970's the young rider from
Northern California travelled to and trained behind the iron curtain to learn
how to ride against the dominating Europeans and became the fastest rider in America winning
the 1972 AMA 500cc National Championship. From there, the long struggle on
various brands began, including Kawasaki,
Husqvarna, Honda and finally on Suzuki which he won his World Champion title on
in Luxembourg
against a tough Belgian named Andre' Vromans.
The stories Brad, his friends, mechanics,
fellow riders, and wonderful wife Lori tell in this DVD are simply
unforgettable. From riding his first motorcycle rodeo as a boy, to training in Czecko
as a teenager, to dealings with sponsors, to battling Andre' Malherbe, and
finally that special day in August of 1982 when it finally happened for the
aging Lackey. It's a story they make feature films about.
