    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    I don't think I knew him but very sad, so young.. My condolences to his family and friends.
    RIP Spencer.

    I didn't know him but saw him in the paddock a few times. He always seemed to have a huge smile, like he knew he was doing the coolest thing in the world and something he loved. Far too young. RIP Spencer.

    I have no connection to the MRA community but this is just terrible. Kid looked so young! Was his passing related to riding at all? RIP rider! My prayers for the family!

    While I did not know Spencer personally, I saw him many times around the track and new his number well. It saddens me to see such a talented young rider lost too soon.

    RIP Spencer.

    It's sad to see such a young man gone. How old was Spencer? He couldn't have been more then 14 years old by the pictures.

    Re: Godspeed #143 Spencer Russell

    He was 13 last year when he was racing with us.

    He also rode the 4 hour endurance as a solo rider and beat me by 4 laps if I remember correctly. I battled with him for the last 1/2 hour of the 4 hours, we pushed each other to the end of a race that was physically and mentally exhausting, that was the last time I was going to be able keep up with him. He improved so much through the course of the season it was really apparent he was going to be special.

    This is from one of the Rocky Mountain MiniMoto races we ran.
