Indianapolis Supercross Photo Report from the Note Pad

Indianapolis Supercross Photo Report from the Note Pad By Billy Rainford Photos by Bigwave I always take heat for using actual pen and paper to keep track of what’s going on at the races.

2021 DMX Awards – The DMXies By Greg Poisson and Billy Rainford Photos by Billy Rainford It’s time for our annual DMX Awards – The DMXies.

Hully Gully Track 20 Years after it Shut Down By Billy Rainford I posted these shots of what Hully Gully looks like now up a long time ago but since we lost a bunch of our archives a couple years ago due to crashing the entire server, I thought I’d post these up again for those who have a connection to the old track one-hour north of the city of

Mini O’s Photo Report | Saturday MX

Mini O’s Photo Report | Saturday MX By Billy Rainford Saturday was the final day of racing at the 50th Annual Mini O’s at Gatorback Cycle Park in Newberry, Florida.

With record number of entries making it the biggest motocross event in the world, I thought there was no chance we were going

TBT | Happy Birthday to Billy’s 1980’s Man-Friend Killing two birds with one stone, here. Happy Birthday to man-friend extraordinaire Cary Hitchen who was at almost as many of my races as my parents, way back in the day.

It’s the day before the final race of the season, so nobody was going crazy, just pounding a few laps and making some
