rjvoight Posted February 16, 2006 Report Posted February 16, 2006 Bailey Rides Again/Clicky For all you MX guys who know the history bout this guy, you will appreciate this. It is one of the coolest things I have seen in a long time. RJV Quote
rjvoight Posted February 16, 2006 Author Report Posted February 16, 2006 Man I just watched the video again, It totally just makes me smile! I have never met bailey but have seen interviews and read articles since I was a kid. He always seems to have the most positive attitude and seems to be a true to life nice guy. I wish him the best of luck and hope he gets to spend even more time on a bike. I imagine Honda will probabally cough up a bike for him, the guy deserves it for sure. RJV Quote
reded Posted February 16, 2006 Report Posted February 16, 2006 I'm betting 90% of the people on here dont know who David Bailey is! He used to be like a God to me back when i was like 10-12 yrs old tho. Its too bad that his career had to end so abruptly. Quote
locogato11283 Posted February 17, 2006 Report Posted February 17, 2006 thats pretty crazy...gotta give the guy a hand for gettin back on a bike and riding like that... Quote

yammerhammer98 Posted February 17, 2006 Report Posted February 17, 2006 That's awesome! It's great to see Bailey riding again. I was never a big fan (don't care for Hondas!!), but he was THE MAN when he was in his prime. For a short time there in the early 80's, Honda had Bailey, Johnny O'Mara and Rick Johnson as a dominate AMA outdoor team. Quote
rjvoight Posted February 17, 2006 Author Report Posted February 17, 2006 ok, ill be the dump one. who is he? what did he do? 474962[/snapback] It was a long time ago. My favorite and best memories are in 1985 and 86. He had some incredible races against Rick Johnson (another retired sx/mx racer). I have video of one of the races, to this day I have never seen a more heated battle. I think they changed lead about 6 times with lots of bumpin and high speeds. RJV Quote
