    Episode 2 Brooks Hamilton

    This Episode we speak with multi time NETRA enduro champion Brooks HAMILTON. Brooks’s presence on the New England scene dates back to 1990. Initially as a hare scramble racer prior to his years racing New England enduro. 3 championships and 43 overall wins later brooks has cemented himself as one of the best New England enduro riders of all time. But that is often over looked because of the years spent working and representing KTM as a service and sales manager in New England. The Strangle Hold the orange brand has in New England today is in large part due to the influence Brooks had and his determination to grow the brand. KTM has a following in New England that is unrivaled in any other region of the country. The way he approached the job in the same way he approached his racing career proved to be successful on both fronts. This is Brooks Hamiltons New England trail rider story.

    Episode 1 Kenny Law

    Welcome to Episode 1! The idea behind the show is to share stories and bench race about off-road racing in New England and North America, to explore the history of the race series and organization that built the foundation for which we line-up today.  The origin and drive to start this podcast came after I started on a journey, attempting to acquire as many old trail rider magazines as I could in an attempt to locate a photo of my father racing in the 80’s. I scoured eBay and Etsy, reached out to guys I know who raced in that era, reached out to Kurt the New owner of Trail rider magazine. I got my hands on editions from as early as 1972. The old race ads and entry forms, bike tests, and photos its truly amazing. What really caught me off guard was how many familiar names I was seeing in the results sheets and pictures. One that really had me tied in a knot was seeing Kenny Law listed as the 1978 JR enduro mini class champion, I couldn’t wrap my head around Kenny riding mini bikes. Its not something I never thought about before, obviously I knew he had been around for a while, absolute New England legend. So I had to ask him about it. It just seemed too perfect that the first guest should be Kenny Law, Kenny is the leader of the hoot owls, he’s raced, he’s trail bossed, he’s sat at the table as a member of the competition committee His no b.s riders meetings, standing on the back of a 4 wheeler yelling like the old days are second to none.. This is Kenny’s New England trail rider story:
