I was talking to someone about james stewert the other day and the person asked me if stewert was the only fast black pro in the sports history. I know there was someone fast in the 70's, does anyone know his name? Im pretty sure it was the 70's.

Andy Jefferson rode a Husky for Pro Circuit, probably late '70's to early '80's. If I remember correctly, he scored some points (125 class, I think) but wasn't a front runner at the national level.
