Godspeed Super Hunky
Rick “Super Hunky” Sieman passed away after a lengthy illness. Rick was an instrumental figure in the magazine world, serendipitously mated to the explosion of dirt bike popularity. He was in on the ground level with Dirt Bike Magazine which launched in June of 1971. Rick was a sign painter by trade, started working at Hi Torque selling ads for a chopper title and was sucked into Dirt Bike when his writing prowess, wit and humor landed him a job on the staff.
Super Hunky was a pioneer in many ways. He originated the first shootouts, ramrodded product tests and comparisons, wrote ‘From the Saddle’, a column that captured the masses with his humor. Rick was also hugely motived to protect our riding rights, working with the Phantom Duck of the Desert to battle the massive land closures that were shutting down much of the Mojave Desert.
Super Hunky will be missed. Rest in peace.
