THIS IS IN LARGE PART BECAUSE OF THE WORK OF OUTSTANDING PHOTOJOURNALISTS SUCH AS HORST ROSLER, TEPPY SHOGO,  ROGER LOHRER,AND MIKE LICHTER  WHO BELIEVE IN THE SPORT AND RECORD AND PUBLISH IT AROUND THE WORLD. WITHOUT THEM NO ONE WOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THESE COMPETITORS WHO POSSESS SUCH A UNIQUE MIX OF MECHANICAL INGENUITY, DAREDEVIL COURAGE, AND THE TRADITIONAL BIKER QUEST FOR ADVENTURE.     T.N.
