Sam Moses worked for Sports Illustrated for 18 years, the majority of which as its motorsports writer, covering events like the Indy 500, the Daytona 500 and the Long Beach Grand Prix back when it was a round of the Formula One World Championship. But his first love was motorcycles, and motorcycle racing, so Moses pitched those stories to Sports Illustrated and, with the help of his SI editor Bob Brown, he was able to write stories that no one else was writing. Those stories included his first motorcycle racing feature on a young, dirt-tracking Kenny Roberts in 1974. But he didn't stop there. He kept pitching those stories, bringing motorcycle racing to a new audience with more feature stories, including Roberts during his World Championship years, and the three-time 500cc World Champion's challenger, a young Freddie Spencer. We got the chance to chat with Moses from his island home of Lombok in Indonesia to chat about all that and more.
