Salt Lake City, UT - April 26, 2018 - The Legend and Heroes Tour traveling moto museum is pleased to announce that they will honor powersports business icon Dan Thomas this Saturday night at round sixteen of the Monster Energy Supercross series in Salt Lake City, UT.
The Tour stands behind the belief that “We Don’t Leave History Behind” and has kept the founding fathers, and mothers, pure in their thoughts by honoring the men and women that shaped supercross and motocross into what it is today. Each honoree receives a special commemorative plaque during a special podium presentation on the stadium floor before opening ceremonies.
About Dan Thomas:
Dan Thomas is the CEO and founder of supercross series sponsor Rocky Mountain ATVMC. Initially starting in 1985 as a one-room warehouse specializing in ATV tires and wheels and under Dan’s guidance Rocky Mountain ATVMC has grown to the largest retailer of aftermarket parts and accessories in the powersports business. Now 30+ years later Rocky Mountain ATVMC operates two warehouses to serve the needs of the powersports consumer with their corporate headquarters in nearby Payson, UT.

With nearly 5000 square feet of display space, the Legends and Heroes Tour is a definite must-see during the Pit Party at a supercross near you.
The mobile museum features walk-through display videos that allow our guests the opportunity to take a trip back to back to where the sport began. The videos show the heroes of the sport from the beginning of their careers to the races that made them famous. New to the tour in 2018 is the Supercross Virtual Reality mobile experience (SXVR) where fans can experience the thrill of supercross via VR technology and feel like they are on the racetrack.
Fans are also encouraged to stop by early and pick up a complimentary copy of RacerX magazine while supplies last. And thanks to our local friends at each round, the Legends Tour features some of the best vintage motocross bikes on display in a single location. Featuring different vehicles at each round, our guests can relive the machines of their youth and show their family and friends the early days of motocross and supercross.
