Being a home town jersey fan I may be bias, but I am rooting for mike lafferty all the way from 9 or 10 nationals to AMA Hall of Fame. Mike is an awesome role model for all ages and all sports. We are all only hoping for the best in his career and that it will span out to only the greatest of opportunities.
With the AMA vintage bike event and all, having names like Malcom Smith and John Penton, two enduro loving riders. I would only expect to see more of our National AMA Enduro riders in the spotlight. GO!! MIKE GO!!
