Default MotoGP Trivia

This might turn out to be a good thread. I would like to know more trivia about MotoGP, like what was the last year Rossi rode a Honda and so on. But here's mine to start....

What's the reason behind Nicky Hayden's choice of numbers.... #69? Anyone?

Absolutely no clue. I can think of a few reasons I would choose #69, but I'm sure his selection is quite more mature than mine. This could be a cool thread, If anything to learn something new.....

That's what I'm thinking... I know the answer thought it would be fun/entraining to watch everyone guess for a day.
