Michael Jordan: Road race team manager

[BIGBOSSMAN]

Michael Jordan, yes that Michael Jordan - he of the Chicago Bulls and The Dream Team, has been running a AMA Road Racing team for the last four years. Never picked that one, I'd never have associated him with the world of racing!
Here's a link to an interview with Air Jordan.

Yep. He is a BIIIIG bike racing fan (in more ways than one). Is very often seen at MotoGP meetings.
The advent of sports stars owning racing teams is a pretty cool one. The one that is most visual at the moment is Clarence Seedorfs team in MotoGP 125.
(He is a former (current??) Dutch international footballer). Others are getting into it too.

Enjoy

Got a video somewhere on my PC of Jordan on the back of the twin seat Ducati.

BTW, he looks fucking funny on a bike! Makes anything look like a minibike.
