[Hotler]

Malcolm Smith, a true off-road icon on two wheels and four, died on November 26 at the age of 83 following a long battle with Parkinson’s disease.
Born on March 4, 1941, in British Columbia, Canada, Smith was a pioneering figure in the sport of motorcycle racing and desert off-road competition. Considered by many to be one of the best riders of all time, Smith parlayed an early career into legendary status with decades of winning performances, becoming of North America’s most beloved motorcycle superstars in the process.
(snip) The role that made Smith the most famous, however, was as a co-star with actor Steve McQueen and others in Bruce Brown’s classic documentary film “On Any Sunday.” Released in 1971, the movie would inspire motorcycling for generations to follow, as Smith’s talent on two-wheels was on display in movie theaters around the world.
