*Hayden MTV Film To Air*
by the seasoned agitator
Tuesday, November 06, 2007

The long-awaited Nicky Hayden movie that MTV has been working on for the 
last year and half will air on November 16, according to a press release 
from MTV.

/At speeds of over 200 miles per hour, pro motorcycle racer Nicky Hayden 
wins his first ever MotoGP World Championship and defends his title as 
MTV puts viewers in the fast lane with a two hour movie special, "The 
Kentucky Kid," premiering on Friday, November 16 at 10pm ET/PT./

/"The Kentucky Kid" chronicles the life of pro motorcycle racer Nicky 
Hayden starting with the final two races of the 2006 season, where he is 
well on his way to becoming the new MotoGP World Champion. The chance of 
fulfilling his life long dream seemingly slips away when Nicky is 
dramatically crashed out of the race by another rider. With the odds 
against him, and a fractured collar bone, Nicky proves that dedication 
and perseverance can help overcome any obstacle as he claims The MotoGP 
World Title in remarkable fashion. But as the new racing season starts, 
Nicky finds that the only thing harder than winning the Championship is 
defending it. //Racing since the age of 3, the series follows the 
25-year old from Owensboro, Kentucky as he defends his championship on 
the back of a motorcycle at mind bending and heart pounding speeds, with 
his knee scraping the ground at every turn. Hayden's natural ability and 
good looks, coupled with the sports' sexy, fast paced atmosphere, has 
helped propel him as a sports icon, but in a league where the majority 
of the audience is European, the American Hayden constantly has to prove 
himself and his status as World Champion. Nicky's relationship with his 
close knit family of racers and the contrast between his rural life in 
Kentucky and his European cosmopolitan sport all form the backdrop to 
Hayden's 2007 season and his quest to win back to back World 
Championships. //"The Kentucky Kid" in its entirety will be available 
cross carrier on MTV mobile's linear channel and VOD service. //R. Greg 
Johnston, Sam Sokolow and Rob Lobl are Executive Producers of "The 
Kentucky Kid." Kelly Welsh is Co- Executive Producer. Nicky Hayden is 
producer. Lois Curren and Lauren Dolgen are executives in charge for MTV./
