Nelsonville brothers Dakota and Joseph Cunningham don’t have normal lives for young boys. At ages 8 and 12, respectfully, the two Cunningham brothers devote most of their free time to off-road motorcycle racing.
The brothers started racing when they were as young as 3 years old. Now, still early in their racing careers, they are national titleholders on the Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) tour.
The Cunningham family has traveled to Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, New York, West Virginia and Indiana since the GNCC season began in March. On Nov. 26, the brothers are preparing to receive their awards at the GNCC Bike Banquet in Morgantown, West Virginia.
