2008 Motocross Nationals are Here!

Glen Helen here we come!

Although it’s been a great supercross season, we are at the eve of the 2008 Motocross Nationals, and I couldn’t be more excited.

Which for the fan really makes for some boring races. No one really enjoys watching everyone else race for 2nd place. I know I don’t. Although watching the two best riders to ever to put a leg over a motorcycle, is certainly awesome, but watching action packed racing is a lot more enjoyable. [Read more →]

1997 Las Vegas 125cc Supercross

I am truly a fan of older supercross racing, and I spend probably way too much time looking for old races to watch. I’m not even sure how I found this one? You are about to watch the 1997 Las Vegas 125cc Supercross, East vs West shootout. [Read more →]
