In the spring of 1997, a mysterious 4×6-in. snapshot showed up in the marketing department of Oakley. The subject was one of their young riders, 17-year-old Ricky Carmichael, laying his motorcycle flat at the Silverdome. It was a mystery because nobody knew who took the photo. The decision to run with the image, including using it on a billboard in…

It’s like déjà vu. Just like in episode 21, the idea for this story was just supposed to be a simple social media post. I was curious about how many different riders have held the record for most supercross main event wins. The list is even shorter than I thought it was. And I still ended up going overboard. So it goes. Thanks for listening and ple…

This 2,000 word story started as an Instagram post where we simply wished Eli Tomac a happy birthday. But this is We Went Fast and we can’t help but find a deeper story within the details, even if the details are just cake, ice cream and 30 birthday candles. It led to this data dive by Brett Smith and Clinton Fowler. Flash trivia: how many 450 Supe…

This is a story about roots. I wanted to know how Doug Henry became Doug Henry, the scrappy kid from New England who worked two jobs while trying to make it as an athlete. He was 14 when he entered his first race. He wasn’t a promising amateur prospect, his gear didn’t match, his bikes were held together by various fasteners found in the garage. He…

On August 1, 1982, an automobile/train collision killed three teenaged motocross riders in Ponca City, Oklahoma . Forty years later, memories of that white hot afternoon still haunt those who were there. Six years ago I received a message that said, “I wish someone would write about the boys who were killed at Ponca in 1982.” I had no idea what he …

Terry Pratt spent 35 years working on “Grand Prix Motocross” but died a few years after finishing it. In continuation of Pratt’s legacy, We Went Fast reads Chapter 1 of his book. This show is a little different from the others I’ve posted. First: I didn’t write it. A man named Terry Pratt did. He wrote an entire book about the 1972 World Motocross …

Jeremy McGrath was almost perfect in 1996. But not quite. On April 27, 1996, Jeremy McGrath came into the St. Louis Supercross with a record 13 consecutive race wins. He was two wins away from a perfect season. But inside the Trans World Dome, Superman fell short of perfection. It was the only blemish in an otherwise dominant season and the rest of…

Un regno segreto di spiriti invisibili che vivono intorno a noi… Un regno in cui possiamo recarci ogni volta che vogliamo e in cui viaggiare senza limiti. Fate e Folletti, Gnomi ed Elfi, Fate e Ninfe… C’è chi afferma di averli visti, c’è chi dice che sono il frutto della millenaria fantasia di noi uomini……

La letteratura italiana contemporanea sembra premiare il realismo, ma la tradizione del fantastico resta. 😏 "La letteratura non è nata il giorno in cui un ragazzino corse via dalla valle di Neanderthal inseguito da un grande lupo grigio, gridando «Al lupo, al lupo»: è nata il giorno in cui un ragazzino, correndo, gridò «Al lupo, al lupo» senza aver…

How did you find out about Jeremy McGrath doing the Nac Nac? And what did you think of it at the time? For me, it was the weekly copies of Cycle News sold on the counter of MotoSports in Clio, MI. I was just a few weeks away from turning 15 when the 1994 Supercross season started. The February 9th issue featured the first published photo of McGrath…

We all remember where we were and what we were doing on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001. Beyond those chilling hours of trying to make sense of the news and horrific images it gets fuzzy. This is a story about what the members of Team USA 2001 did on the morning of Sept. 11. How they reacted, where they went, what decisions they made. Or didn’t make.…

Forty years ago a quartet of young Americans traveled to Europe and turned the World Motocross community on its head.

Episode #14 is a special collabor…
