So I was wasting time on the computer with old "VHS to USB" devices and I came across this footage. Most of you will have no idea that this track was in Carrol County. It was right near Outlaw & Malvern. I bet we all want to know the same thing- What's the property look like right now? (it is most certainly not a track at this time)
No matter what, it was an incredible track. It was BIG. I mean BIG BIG. I understand why people don't have tracks like this anymore but If I had one all to myself, this is what I would build. It was amazing.
TWELVE years ago, I was 33. I couldn't ride MX for crap, but I could jump a ramp- Those darn MX'er's Parma Dave #29 and Deiter K #174 told me about this magical place.
This video is not a "hey look what we did" type of video. It's merely a few minutes of a sick, sweet, perfect weather day in December 2001 at a very special track. Kevin Ott's Place. This was the first day I set tires to the dirt on this track. Imagine yourself at this place. Look carefully at the lines, the SIZE of the jumps-
There is no typical video "sound track" in this video- No "Rock Music" in the background because in '01- the sounds of the bikes were music enough. Hause "0" is fast today and we just saw him at Outlaw. I'll bet he will have an interest in seeing this- he was there that day. #533 was there, #57 is Kevin himself, #16 on a Honda was there, no idea whom they were but we liked it so much, we went back on Dec 5th '01 because the weather was in the 50's.
Have you been here? What do you know or remember about it? Have any pictures? Where are the riders now?
