November 26: Marty Smith was one of America’s first motocross superstars. In 1974 he became the first rider to win the new 125cc AMA National Motocross Championship and then he backed it up in ’75. After losing the title to Yamaha’s Bob “Hurricane” Hannah in 1976, he made a promise to himself that he would win a title the following year. In ’77, once again, it was he and Hannah going after the 500cc National Motocross title, and this time it was Team Honda’s Smith who came out on top.
