The 1975 Oly Superbowl of Motocross was hosted at the LA Coliseum on July 19, 1975, and was the third year the event had been held. Promoted by Mike Goodwin, presented by KEZY radio, sponsored by Olympia Beer, and sanctioned by the AMA, the race featured a $100,000 artificial track constructed with 4,000 cubic yards of dirt. The 3/4-mile course had 13 turns that zig-zagged across the coliseum floor and included a variety of jumps and whoop-de-doos, designed so all the action was visible to spectators in the bleachers. The most iconic feature was a steep hill that led riders up into the Coliseum’s peristyle (the columns at the east end of the stadium). Riders made a sharp left turn out of view of spectators before launching back into the main arena via a long downhill ramp. Jimmy Ellis won the 1975 Oly Superbowl of Motocross riding a Can-Am, securing the overall victory by winning two of the three motos and placing second in the third, making it one of the biggest wins of his career.
Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

Screen colors may vary due to differences in screens. Due to the natural nature of cotton, whites may appear off-white rather than bright white.
There honestly isn’t much to taking care of Direct to Garment (DTG) printed t-shirts, but like any garment, if you want them to last longer than not, there are a few tips.
The first thing people might get wrong is following the instructions on the t-shirt’s care tag. While it may be fine for the blank shirt, you have to keep in mind that the original manufacturer’s care instructions don’t take into consideration the DTG print that goes on top of the garment.
TL;DR: DTG printed apparel should be turned inside-out, machine-washed in cold water, meaning below 90℉ or 30℃, on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent without any fabric softener or bleach. See, easy peazy!
What is considered a mild detergent? A mild detergent is a gentle cleaning solution that contains only surface-active agents. Â All Free Clear and Tide Free & Gentle are common examples of mild detergents. More intense detergents often contain enzymes or abrasives that can damage the print on a t-shirt.
Tumble-drying on hot and ironing can be detrimental to the lifecycle of the print. DTG-printed apparel can be tumble-dried on a low cycle, but hang-drying is also an option. If you must iron, make sure you use a cool iron inside-out to avoid damaging the print.
On a related note, we overprint our shirts to get the unique vintage look that we’re known for, and the first wash may show some slight fading, but this is totally normal and part of the process to get the right look!
