                                              Privateers Wanted

  This page is dedicated to the privateer, the unsung hero.  These guys were the backbone of motocross. Sylvain Geboers once told me that it was guys like us that made motocross what it is.  These are the guys that bought their own bikes, worked on their own bikes and drove themselves to the races. They were always overshadowed by the Factory Stars and their dedication to motocross was often overlooked. If you were an AMA or CMC pro and a Privateer in the 60's, 70's or 80's and want to share your experience, send your bio and photos to wanted@mxworksbike.com.  I will file them and post as time permits.
