Welcome to A Year in MX 2009...

It's now almost been a month since I left England's shores. It's certainly been a fun time holed up here in SoCal, different way of life that's for sure! Already I've watched the Supercross Championship decided, Robbie Maddison and the Metal Mulisha perform stunts at Brian Deegan's house and now I've seen the first National of the year at Glen Helen. Also, I was able to complete my lap of the track (see: Keep On Track) in a reasonable time of 24 minutes. Please follow the 'Donate' link below to support my efforts and help out two awesome charities.

Viva Las Vegas!

Schedule 2009

In what seems to be a fairly regular occurence, I shall once again be in Las Vegas (along with about 20,000 other Brits supporting Ricky Hatton), but I'll be at the Sam Boyd Stadium for the Supercross where the 2009 450 Champion will be decided. After Vegas there is a 3 week break until the first National at Glen Helen, when the trip really begins.

Add in Amateur Nationals at Ponca City, OK and Loretta Lynn's, TN and that makes for a pretty busy summer. And it doesn't end there as I fly back to England late September in order to prepare for a roadtrip down to Italy for the MXDN on October 4th, a trip I'm already looking forward to.

Intro...

The 3rd installment of 'A Year in MX' is almost upon us and I'm going back to my roots (kinda). Once again I'm flying over to America to follow the AMA Pro Nationals... and once again I'll be doing it in a motorhome. However this is where things get a little different as I will be joined in the duration by my good friend, Wes Williams from Vurb Moto. This will hopefully make the long drives a bit easier (no pressure Wes!) and should allow us to get up to some cool stuff along the way.
Also, make sure to check out the Keep On Track page, as that is where I will update my progress on the Charity Laps I will be running on each of the National tracks.
