Eric Geboers, 5 times World Champion Mottocross dies age 55

[Mike Sterckx]

Eric "The Kid" Geboers' body was found today at the bottom of a lake. He jumped into the water after a one week old puppy fell in, but never surfaced. He was one of the biggest names in mottocross history winning 5 world titles and the only one to ever become WC in all 3 categories (125cc, 250cc and 500cc).Most of you wont know him but he was a legend in the eighties.

RIP Eric
