Monday Morning Coffee | The Mini O’s By Billy Rainford Hello, and welcome to a beautiful Monday Morning Coffee from Gainesville, Florida. We just wrapped up a very long week of racing action from the 45th Annual Thor Winter Olympics, but you can call them ‘The Mini O’s.’ As I sat down to start typing this morning, the power suddenly went out at the Starbucks I was sitting at in
Monday Morning Coffee By Billy Rainford Lots of racing took place around the world over the weekend. If you’re a Pro rider with some indoor skills and experience, there are a ton of options throughout the winter, if you make some calls or drop some hints to the right people. But we’ll get to all that… When I was a kid, my buddy had a brother who was 4 years
Monday Morning Coffee By Billy Rainford Good morning. There were lots of things that happened over the weekend so let’s get to it. We had an unseasonably warm couple days here (and it’s going to be 18 degrees Celsius again today) so I’m sure most people with bikes were out at a track or trail somewhere!

Monday Morning Coffee By Billy Rainford Well, there goes another Halloween weekend. Yes, tonight is actually the big night for the door-to-door portion of the festivities, but it’s always the Saturday night before the 31st that is ‘grown up Halloween.’ If you’re from the Ontario region of Canada, you may be familiar with a motocross track that everyone seems to list at or near their top of favourites – Auburn.
Monday Morning Coffee By Billy Rainford Good morning and welcome to another week at whatever your usual ‘grind’ is. Not to brag, but my usual grind took a pretty cool turn this morning. It seems someone in the Canadian Motocross Industry was unable to make a short trip to California today, so I was forced to step up to the plate and will now be hopping on a flight to
Monday Morning Coffee By Billy Rainford I hope everyone had a great weekend and is ready for another exciting school or work week. Ya, whatever. Around these parts (Southwestern Ontario) the weather looked pretty bleak as we headed into the weekend, but it didn’t really get that bad. In fact, Gopher Dunes held its 6th Annual Sandstorm event and they got pretty lucky, all things considered. It was their first-ever
Monday Morning Coffee By Billy Rainford What time is it? Heck, what DAY is it?! This Monday Morning Coffee is coming to you from one of the nicest places in the world – Cinque Terra, Italy. No, if I’m being honest, I’d never really heard of it either, but take my word for it, it’s amazing. More exactly, we’re staying in a small seaside village called Portvenere. You have to
Monday Morning Coffee By Billy Rainford Good morning. I hope everyone had a great weekend. There aren’t too many left in the season when you’ll be heading to the tracks in short sleeves, so enjoy them while you can! Although the leaves are slowly deciding to fall to the ground, there is still tons of racing to pay attention to. Here’s what went on this past weekend. Team Canada MXON
McThoughts | Ironman MX National | 450 Class By Jeff McConkey The final round of the Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross season was this past Saturday at Ironman Raceway. The track was rough, the ruts were deep and the weather was really hot. Like the majority of the season, it was ‘The Ken Roczen Show.’ This year Ken was on a different level and really raced by himself. He was never
McThoughts | Ironaman MX National | 250 Class By Jeff McConkey The final round in the Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross series was this past Saturday in Crawfordsville, Indiana. The day started out dark and wet, but after qualifying the sun came out and made a wet, soggy track into a really good track to race on. Like always, the top guys were out front, but there was a complete
