Faces at the Races | Canada AX Tour | Barrie Round 2 By Billy Rainford Photos by Jeff McConkey and Billy Rainford We were 45 minutes north of Toronto at the Molson Centre for round 2 of the 2016 Canadian National Arenacross Championships this past Saturday.

McThoughts | Canadian AX Tour | Barrie Round 2 By Jeff McConkey Round 2 of the Canadian National AX Tour kicked off Saturday night at the Molson Center in Barrie, Ontario. Once again, the Pro turnout was great. The track was quite a bit tighter than last week and made for some close racing. Early on in practice, the guys had gotten down to the plywood in spots.

Photo Report | 2016 MXON | Maggiora Italy By Billy Rainford Photos by James Lissimore Wow! That’s pretty much all you can say after being at a MXON in Europe. I woke up in a cold sweat last night having nightmares of bladeless chainsaws revving out at 12000rpms, and megaphones, and horns, and anything you could modify to make an already loud machine even louder.

We’ve gone from from coast to coast and then some! Yes, there were a few surprises along the way, but the riders who came out on top of the MX2 and MX2 really shouldn’t have shocked anyone.

Faces at the Races|2016 Red Bud National
Faces at the Races|2016 Red Bud National Photos and Captions by Jeff McConkey Red Bud is a bucket list item. If you’ve never been, plain and simple, you need to go. You can see great racing at each and every round of the AMA Nationals, but Red Bud is more. To start off, it’s the most beautiful track layout you could imagine. It has big jumps, elevation, sand, and a

Canada AX Tour – Penticton Photo Report
Canada AX Tour – Penticton Photo Report By Billy Rainford And to think we wondered how we were going to top the bar-banging action witnessed in Sarnia two weeks before! Arenacross has long been synonymous with aggressive riding. To be sure, the hockey-rink-sized tracks make getting around a rider easily a difficult proposition in the best of circumstances. Add to this mixture a couple riders who are very close in
