Jody's Tony D. Movie from Monsters of MX 2 Weeks, 2 Days ago
Hi Gang!
Thought those of you who were not there on Saturday night would like to see Jody Weisel's movie we produced for him on Tony D. Jody did a good job on it!

I agree. Tony made an impression on me when I met him as well, because he seemed to just be a normal cool guy...no ego or rock-star attitude. Cool also to see Weinert in the flick. I still have the #7 Kawasaki jersey he gave me to hand out fliers for his next-day MX school at the Rio Bravo Trans-AMA as a kid.
Yeah...the sport was a lot different then. I'm not convinced that it has changed for the better.

Thanks, MX-Files, for sharing the video. Racers like Tony D were what appealed to so many of us in our youth. My older brothers used to argue over who got to be Tony D just before the start of our backyard bmx races. The current sport misses out on such heros because the big $ has made it too anti-septic and corporate. I guess I need to go watch "On Any Sunday" one more time.

That was a great video to watch. I have to confess I didnt know anything about Tony D, outside that I had heard his name mentioned a few times, but I learned a little watching that. I enjoyed that very much, thanks for posting.
