February 2: Tony DiStefano was way ahead of his time back in the seventies. He won three AMA 250cc National MX Championships and was a seven-time member of the Trophee and Motocross Des Nations teams.
After injuries began to take their toll on Tony he decided to retire from competition after the 1981 season. He continued his involvement in the sport by starting his own riding schools for young up and coming riders. In 1988, while practicing at a track in New Jersey, DiStefano crashed, broke his back and became paralyzed. He continues to this day to teach motocross schools.
