Hi Poggers!
I have been communicating with Alexey Nasonov in Russia about getting to interview Gennady Moiseev about winning the 1974 World Championships on a KTM...here are some answers to my questions he initially asked for. Neat stuff...(try to forgive the broken translation on questions and answers)
Hopefully the schedules work out to get him on camera for the movie...I think it will.
Enjoy,
Todd
