2015 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship: Who is Your Favorite
Well as all you motocross fans get ready for the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship the tensions start the build and the fans start to get pumped on how there favorite rider is going to do. Well not only do we have our favorite rider we also have our favorite manufactures. What fun would it be for a sports fan not to see there favorite ride on top of the game. So with that said it seems like KTM has left a big mark on the sport winning a 450 and 250 Supercross championship. Well as we all know there are a lot of superb riders and we are all just waiting for the gate to drop, but who will get the first win at Hangtown in the Open class and who is going to take the lights class. While I was hoping to see JS7 back in action for some more great battlers I guess we have to count him out. So tell me who do you think will take home the big Win at the first race of the year.

Motocross Fans Let Your Opinion Matter!
Listen Motocross racer's and motocross fans we have to make a stand and speak our peace. A lot of us read what people write and agree but do not stand by what we feel. We all know there is no possible way to make everyone happy but majority should count. So if you have anything that you disagree with about motocross just let me know it is about time we make this sport about the riders with all there hard work and determination. All the pain and agony that the riders and family go through. It is now time to be heard and let people know what you think. Do not be afraid to speak your piece I can guarantee you there are people that agree and disagree but lets get to the bottom of what bothers you the racer and you the fan and even the parents of the GREATEST sport on the planet yeah thats right the GREATEST sport on the planet MOTOCROSS and SUPERCROSS.

Loretta Lynne's: Is It All About The Money?
I am asking for motocross racers advice on a controversial subject about Loretta Lynn's. There are plenty of people disputing over LLQ and Regionals should you be allowed to qualify in multiple areas incase you have a bad moto or bike problems. A lot of you say yes and a lot say that you should only qualify were you reside because a lot of the states can not ride all year around and leaves them at a disadvantage. Then you will get a reply saying that they can go some were's warm to train for the winter just like everyone else. Well now it turns into a money issue that not all people have the money to do what they want and you get some people say that if you don't have any money maybe the sport is not for you. My only statement to that is if you are a motocross racer you love the sport why else would you take a chance of ruining your body. If you have the desire to want to ride I am not one to say it is a rich man sport. The only thing I can say is look at your options and see what you can come up with. The final question that I would really like to hear the racers and the racers parents speak out on is Loretta Lynn's all about the money after all you can register as an alternate and race too.

The 2014 250F motocross shootout machines get a workout on the Dirt Rider/DynoJet dyno. Watch the entire video to see who is the horsepower king in the 250F class for 2014.
Reminder: Every dyno is slightly different so the important thing is to compare only numbers coming from the same dyno, not numbers from other dynes.

Instructions on How To Seat Bounce
Seat bouncing is a jumping technique where you make the bike go higher and further than would otherwise be possible for that particular speed.
It’s achieved by compressing the rear suspension more on the face which will make it rebound and carry you further.
Typically you’ll want to do this when attempting to clear a jump right out of a corner that you don’t quite have the speed for.
Supercross riders will seat bounce frequently while for amateur motocrossers it’s a useful technique to know that can give you an edge.
Here’s how to do it. First, find a jump with a longer and less steep face. Begin by just sitting down through the jump but keeping the front wheel up as you take off. This is important because once you start really seat bouncing failing to keep the front wheel up on takeoff may result in the rear wheel kicking you up and over the bars (the dreaded endo !).
Now you’re ready for the next step. As you approach a takeoff, sit back and weight the rear suspension. As the bike reaches the lip get more aggressive with the power forcing the rear suspension to compress as much as possible. Make sure you are in the right gear that the bike has plenty of power to keep the front wheel up as you take off. Watch as Justin demonstrates this at the 6-7 sec mark of the video.
As soon as you take off roll your shoulders forward to shift your weight from the back to the front which will help the suspension to rebound. Make sure your legs are tight to the bike as that will carry the back end when you shift your weight forward.
If you’re having to hit the back brake to get the front end down, your legs probably aren’t tight enough when shifting your weight.
Good luck!
Good luck!
