Malcolm Smith

In the early days of off-road motorcycle racing, Malcolm Smith was already considered the best in the world long before riding in Baja was a “thing.” In 1956, at age 15, he entered the Scrambles Race in Riverside, California where he crashed several times but finished in second place. Smith went on to win eight gold medals in the International Six Day Trials in Europe, making him one of the most successful riders in the event’s history.
