    Ep. #31: Jeff Ward is Captain America

    Earlier this year, for over two hours, I sat at Jeff Ward’s dining room table and listened as he told stories of an era more than three decades behind him; his time as a member of Team USA with the Trophee and Motocross of Nations between 1983 and 1990. They were mostly stories of winning, but also the suffering, soldiering and salvaging he went through to get those wins. As he autographed the artwork designed in his honor (available now at shop.wewentfast.com), the normally quiet Ward spared no details: the passes, the crashes, bad starts, border crossings, travel nightmares, sabotage and peeing in a bag for Ron Lechien (true story).

    Ep. #29 James Stewart: The Fastest Man on the Planet Finds Perfection

    Between 2005 and 2016, James Stewart completed just one full season of Pro Motocross in the 450 class: 2008. And in the days, weeks and months leading into that summer, he was dubious of being able to go the distance. His first three years in the class were disasters: it started with an uncompetitive bike and ended with a knee injury. In between, there was Ricky Carmichael, who refused to be beaten even as he headed into the sunset. It seemed like Stewart couldn’t win. Then he won everything. Four years after Carmichael completed his second perfect season (which you can hear about in episode #26), James Stewart also did it. And Stewart did it despite thinking that ‘08 was going to be “another crappy year”. Stewart is the subject of the latest We Went Fast signature series, artwork autographed by the legends themselves. Find it at shop.wewentfast.com The signed version is a limited edition. Only 116 numbered prints are available, commemorating the 116 wins from Stew’s career. shop.wewentfast.com. The print is 18x24-inches and available un-signed as well. Members of the We Went Fast Garage got early access to this release in addition to the other premium content benefits.
