VIDEO: Happy birthday André Malherbe!
Three-time motocross world champion André Malherbe's birthday is today! The HRC Honda hero from the '80s turns 64. Older motocross fans retain fond memories of the stylist from Huy.
After all, Malherbe was not only an exceptional pilot, he is also known as a true gentleman. In total, the son of a motorcycle dealer won no fewer than 41 GPs. He also won two European 125cc titles. After his active career in motocross, he was paralyzed in 1988 in an accident in the Paris-Dakar rally raid.
