Sammy Miller - As a trials competitor, motorcycle designer, and motorcycling historian, Sammy Miller has won international renown. During his career, Miller rode his way to nine gold medals in the International Six Days Trials. He also designed trials motorcycles, including the Ariel GOV 132 and Bultaco Sherpa, which influenced the Trials movement across America in the 1960s. As founder of The Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum in Southern England, Miller continues to promote and preserve the history of motorcycle competition worldwide.

Trampas Parker - As versatile as he was consistent, KTM factory racer Trampas Parker made history as a two-time World Motocross Champion. He was an unknown American rider living in Italy when he burst onto the world motocross scene by winning the 125cc championship in 1989. Two years later, he repeated the feat for a 250cc championship. Now residing back in the United States, Parker enjoys participating occasionally in Supermoto racing.

Derek and Don Rickman - Brothers Derek and Don Rickman found success ran in their blood as motocross racers in 1960s England. After tasting victory on the track, the Rickmans began designing and building their own motorcycle frames. Soon their distinctive designs allowed them to expand their business to include street machines and fairing production.

Orie Steele, Sr. - In the early twentieth century, hill climb racing was an immensely popular sport dominated by Orie Steele, Sr. In 1926 alone, Steele competed in 49 events and won 33 firsts. A National Hill Climb Champion and an Indian factory rider in the 1920s, Steele's legendary skill thrilled crowds across the country.

Billy Uhl - Racing alongside his father at the International Six Day Trials in 1973, Billy Uhl won his first of six ISDT gold medals. At age 19, Uhl was one of the youngest riders to ever win a gold medal. In 1979, he was the top performing American at the first ever ISDT/DE in the U.S. and won the Count Lurani Trophy. After reinvigorating the Idaho State Trail System and beginning the Idaho State Parks Trail Ranger Program, Uhl became the Senior Instructor at OHV Training. He uses his trials experience to educate motorcycle, ATV, and snowmobile riders of all skill levels and teach trail design, building, and maintenance.

Ed Waldheim - A tireless advocate for off-road motorcyclists, Ed Waldheim also won more than thirty trophies during his racing career. Waldheim is the president of the California Off-Road Vehicle Association and was appointed to the California Off-Highway Vehicle Recreation Commission by two governors and served multiple terms. He has won numerous awards for his advocacy on behalf of all off-road enthusiasts, including the prestigious AMA Motorcycling Advocate Award, and continues to advance their cause with the government and in the media.
