Nicky Hayden featured in NY Times

By: Abel Lin

It's no secret that some of the folks here at SundayMorningRides.com are rabid MotoGP fans. We're grateful to the teams that have given us access to images, rider interviews, and other press/insider coverage and news. Much of this exclusive access makes up our MotoGP News Section.

Anyhow I just wanted to point you to a story I saw in yesterday's NY Times profiling 2006 MotoGP World Champion Nicky Hayden. The 7 page article can be found here: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/19/sports/playmagazine/0819play-hayden.html?ref=playmagazine.

The article also has a nice interactive feature that showcases some of the features of the new 800cc MotoGP bikes - "At full throttle, the sound of a MotoGP bike can approach 130 decibels, or only slightly less than that of a 747 at takeoff."
