Our travelling photographer Randy Wiebe made the drive down to Unadilla last weekend for the very cool MX Rewind event. Not only did RW take some cool photos, but he also did a quick little recap for us. Here are his photos and his words:
“I made the trip down to Unadilla MX Park this past weekend for MX Rewind; my second time there since taking pictures the national two years ago. This is the second year for MX Rewind at Unadilla and I am thinking that next year will be even bigger. AHRMA holds a three day race for vintage and post vintage bikes. Friday is a cross country race which is four miles long each lap and after the rain they have had the track was really muddy. Saturday is vintage and Unadilla support classes. There were a total of thirty AHRMA moto’s and eight support moto’s. This made for a very long day, and I wished the support classes were in the middle of the day but AHRMA didn’t want that. Half way through the day the legends came out to race which was awesome! These riders still go as hard as they did twenty years ago. Brad Lackey, Guy Cooper, Danny Laporte and others put on a great show and had a post race chat about the days’ race and past races. Friday night you could just walk up and talk to any one of them and talk about racing in the old days. Sunday had seventeen post vintage moto’s and eight support moto’s. They cut the moto’s to three laps because the weather was looking not so good. The whole weekend was fun, everyone had a blast and getting to see so many different styles of motocross bikes was pretty cool. If you can make it next year make sure to put it on your calendar!”
