In this most compelling and competitive supercross season in the 50 years of the sport, we take a look back at an indoor Philadelphia motorcycle race held 51 years ago… and though there’s only been three “official” supercross races ever held in the City of Brotherly Love, a championship was decided there… a short 44 years ago.

If you actually read video descriptions, and I’m convinced that no one does – no one reads anything anymore – apologies for the intrusive visual edits required by Feld Motorsports (and the YT algorithm bots).

Being a rather grumpy old man who once made a living as a professional motorsports journalist – back when such a thing existed on a wider scale, and was arguably an honorable enough profession – I don’t actually like or fundamentally agree with “fair use.”

But all the kids are doing it these days. It’s a real thing. And I’m relegated to coloring between the lines as best I can with a corporate boot on my neck. Further, resigned that if I want to write about the sport I’ve been involved with and loved my entire life, I’ll have to produce video essays. (‘Cause, you know, no one reads anymore.)

This channel is intended as storytelling, with a bit of commentary and historical context laced throughout. I do hope some find value in its content. Even if the “promoters” of the sport do not.
