Ambassador Spotlight: The Champion – Ricky Johnson

oss King to Off-Road Legend

At Big Dick Offroad, we don’t just build for the trail—we build for people who push it to the edge, break the rules, and still come out on top. That’s why today’s Ambassador Spotlight isn’t just about someone who races. It’s about someone who owns the dirt.

Meet Ricky Johnson—motocross icon, off-road champion, and the kind of guy who treats a finish line like a starting gate.


From Bikes to Beasts

If you were breathing dirt in the ‘80s and ‘90s, you already know the name. Ricky Johnson dominated motocross, stacking 7 AMA national championships before most people were done learning to shift.

Then he did what real champions do: he reinvented himself.

Swapped the two wheels for four. Took that fire into the world of short-course off-road racing, and once again started blowing doors off.

TORC. LOORRS. Baja. Ricky didn’t just show up—he showed out.


Why Ricky Johnson Represents Big Dick Offroad

Because he gets it.

  • He knows what it means to go all-in.

  • He’s blown up gear, eaten dirt, and kept pushing.

  • He’s put in the hours in the garage, the grit on the trail, and the heart in the race.

That’s the same mentality we bring to every build, every lift kit, every trail mod, and every customer who wants to go farther than the GPS says is smart.

Ricky rides for the culture. That’s Big Dick Offroad to the core.


Ricky’s Off-Road Resume

If you think he left the winning behind with motocross, think again:

  • Baja 1000 Class Champion

  • LOORRS Pro 2 Winner

  • TORC Series Contender

  • Inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame

  • Worked with the U.S. military on high-performance off-road tactical driving

He’s not just a racer—he’s an off-road tactician.


What We Can All Learn from Ricky

You don’t stop chasing wins just because the format changes. Whether it’s a dirt bike, a trophy truck, or a built Sprinter, the mindset stays the same:

  • Show up ready.

  • Go hard.

  • Don’t apologize for being aggressive.

And when you need a machine that can back that up, you don’t settle. You build it right. You build it strong. You build it Big Dick Offroad style.


Final Word

Ricky Johnson is the kind of ambassador who doesn’t need to hold up a branded water bottle to prove anything. His legacy is already written—on race tracks, in the desert, and in the guts of every machine he’s ever driven.

We’re proud to shout him out. Not just because he’s a champion—but because he’s a reminder of what this lifestyle is really about:

Going full send, and never letting off.

Big Dick Offroad. Ride like Ricky. Build like us.
