Redbud



This is a picture of Ricky Carmichael, the G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time), jumping Larocco's leap at Redbud MX. This track is located near Buchanan, Michigan. This jump is a 120 ft. uphill triple. It is the biggest, baddest, and scariest jump on the pro circuit. There isn't room for error on this big guy. The jump was named after Mike Larocco, when he was the first person to complete the jump on a 125. That is impressive. I chose this picture to help put into relation the size of the jump. Oh-I've been there, and Redbud was my first word!
