Why do they do it?
A question that needs to be answered... Senior citizen motocross racers. Traveling throughout the Midwest to seek a truth. From Joe Pena, who was late for work and witnessed fellow workers perish in the twin towers collapse September 11, 2001 – to David Lichtle, who rides with memories, and as a means of catharsis, after his son Josh, a pro rider died following a race in 2012.
Moving culture, working in concert with creatives and clients.
Capturing world class competition; X-Games, NFL, AMA Pro Motocross, and World Cup mountain biking.
