Mike Brumit sums Stevie up the best, “the Great One is here”… Stevie is a notch above most of us, simply by nature, in Riding, Racing, Pitting Techniques/Strategy, Comedic Wit and Kamasutra. The rest of us strive diligently to be good at these activities but in comparison to the “The Great One” we are just mere mortals…
Where will you find Mr. Banzai, if hes not mounted on a dirt bike, you ask? CKR knows all to well he will be using one of his next best talents as he Cheers, Coaches, Keeps the referee in line, all the while yelling and reminding us to “Breath for Goodness Sakes”… Banzai is also known to give us some pretty serious belly aches…
We truly appreciate the tireless efforts Stevie has for the CKR Team and his two boys Justin Bonita and Travis Coy who are shinning examples of how extremely talented the Bonita family is. Justin and Travis are amazing racers / riders and follow in the same good spirit Stevie has shared with them and don’t kid yourself they are serious about it…
Stevie has raced with the best and done exceptionally well at the pro level. He has enough 1st place trophies to fill up a pick up truck, yet he is modest, humble and down to earth. As for the nick name “Banzai” it’s an obvious one, when you see Stevie making his own lines surfing the dirt and obstacles out in mother natures play ground.
