This is part 2 of a 3 part interview with Marty Smith. These interviews were done by David Dewhurst for his book, “Motocross: The Golden Era”, which is available at shop.wewentfast.com and ships free to customers in the United States.
Part 2 covers Marty's time as a factory Honda rider.
This interview series was done at Marty's house just two weeks before he and his wife died in a dune buggy accident at the Glamis Sand Dunes
Among other accolades, Marty was first ever 125MX Pro Motocross Champion, a title he won in 1974 and repeated in 1975. He was also considered the first superstar of American Motocross.
Chapter nine of "Motocross: The Golden Era is dedicated to Smith". The book is a 480-page coffee table book filled with 600 gorgeous images he captured as a photojournalist during a pivotal era of the sport: 1972-1985.
I can’t stress enough what a masterpiece this book is and Dewhurst’s photographic talent shines within it. Check it out at shop.wewentfast.com.
