Monday Morning Coffee opinion column where we talk about what happened over the weekend with a decidedly Canadian slant. By Billy Rainford I remember watching young New Zealander #17 Cole Davies at a Supercross Futures race last season and being impressed with his skills. The big news was that Ben Townley was onsite helping him out, so it was really cool to see him back at the track. At A2
By Billy Rainford It’s Monday morning after Round 3 of the 2024 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego. We had another wet race, so that makes 2 out of 3 that were not “ideal.” They say mud is the great equalizer, and that seems to be playing out so far in 2024.

By Billy Rainford OK, what did I miss the past 2 weeks? I’ve finally made it back to my home office and it feels good to be able to sit at my own desk in my own house and get back to business as usual. As i’m sure you’re very bored of hearing about, I was out in Kamloops, BC for the past 16 days looking after my mom with
By Billy Rainford Dominating the news this morning is the return to Honda Canada GDR Fox Racing for #5 Tyler Medaglia. Tyler rode for the team back in 2012 as the defending 250 champion on the #11 Honda 450 back then. Tyler won the 250 title in 2010 and 2011 for the Blackfoot team and then moved up to the 450 class. In 2024, he’ll drop back down to the

If you’ve never been to this event, I’m not sure I can even describe it in words. 6000 entries over the course of 7 days in both Supercross and Motocross. It’s a living, breathing entity, this thing!
