Faces at the Races: East Rutherford SX Photos and captions by Billy Rainford In 2014, I had to choose between going to the inaugural Monster Energy AMA Supercross just over the bridge from NYC in East Rutherford, NJ or head down to the final round of Supercross in Las Vegas.

For some reason, people still freak out a little at the prospect of heading into Detroit, Michigan. There’s really no reason to be nervous…there’s nothing there! Well, that was true a few years ago. The city looks to be undergoing
Faces at the Races: Atlanta 2 SX By Billy Rainford The second of two Atlanta rounds of the 2015 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series took place in a packed Georgia Dome in downtown Atlanta. This was the first Supercross I’ve been able to attend so I was pretty excited to get back behind the lens to shoot this race. Racing has been amazing and there are always a few riders
Faces at the Races: Rounds 5 and 6 – Canadian AX Championships Photos and Captions by Billy Rainford It’s no secret that my favourite thing to do at the races is awkwardly point my camera in the faces of those of you at the events.
