Bob Hannah

Robert William Hannah, known as Bob Hannah, born in 1956, is an American former professional motocross racer who competed in the AMA Motocross Championships from 1975 to 1989, most notably as a member of the Yamaha factory racing team. He was one of the most successful motocross racers in AMA history, with 70 AMA race victories and seven championships. His wild riding style, seemingly on the verge of losing control and often with his feet off the pegs, earned him the nickname Hurricane Hannah, and his fitness and competitiveness raised the speed of American racing. He was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 1999 and the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America in 2000.
