When we decided to explore the rolling green and orange hills, we reached out to the Enduro Lyfe boys (they’re always down for a good time). We set out after work and rode until the setting sun told us to stop. We, of course, brought along our resident photo guru, Gordon Dooley, to capture every moment.

STOP AND SMELL THE POPPIES

The fields were blanketed as far as the eye could see. Cresting each hill unveiled a myriad of flowers dotting the landscape. We had to stop numerous times just to sit and take in the view. Even though Southern California is a popular center of life, and highway traffic and crowds are the norm, out in the rolling hills we felt a million miles from anywhere.

This is why offroad embodies everything we love about riding. Enduro bikes are freedom machines. As soon as your tires hit the dirt, the concerns of daily life fade. There is nothing more valuable than these moments. Remember, you don’t have to travel to some far away land to escape, you can find freedom in your own backyard.

If you'd like to check out the equipment used during the ride:

• Legion Offroad Jersey: The perfect balance of lightweight stretch and trail-ready functionality.
• Legion Offroad Pants: 4-way stretch meets Cordura® fabrics and essential storage pockets. 
• Legion Offroad Jacket: 2-in-1 convertible jacket versatile enough for a full day of riding.
• Bomber Light Glove: Minimalistic palm for maximum bar feel pair D3O® armored knuckles.

LEGION: (FLOWER) FIELD TESTED

You might remember the initial launch of our Fox MX19 Legion Offroad gear last fall, where it was put to the test by Carey Hart and Ricky Carmichael. The Goat gave it his stamp of approval, but just for good measure, we equipped the Enduro Lyfe guys with a Legion Kit each to test a new set of conditions – proving this offroad gear has 4-season versatility.

The Offroad jersey is durable yet lightweight and breathable – brains and brawn. Thanks to Cordura® sleeves, it brushes off unexpected encounters with bushes, tree branches, and, when things get real sideways, the dirt. The Offroad pants have the same performance chassis as the beloved 360 pants, but with reinforced Cordura® Ripstop paneling to protect from trail-related wear and tear. Plus, a smart pocketing system gives you a place to store your keys, cell phone… maybe a snack. Basically, anything you want to keep within arm’s reach.

Rounding out the Legion collection is a convertible jacket, which gives you the versatility of a vest and jacket in one. As a vest, it adds wind and abrasion resistance to your gearset without overheating. When the sun dropped below the mountains, attaching the sleeves gave us the additional coverage we needed as temperatures fell. And when it was time to switch on the headlights, the reflective trims kept everyone visible.

The Rockstar Energy Triple Crown series arrived in Calgary, Alberta for round 2 of the AX Tour Championship. Riders and teams were anxiously awaiting the dry and sifted rodeo dirt of the Western Agrium Centre that always creates a great racing track. The track for this weekend’s race had a technical rhythm section followed by a deep set of whoops that were separating riders who were able to put in the proper off-season AX training.

With the NHL playoffs game night heating up in the arena located directly next to the Arenacross race, the atmosphere and city were buzzing. As lifelong hockey fan, Dylan Wright wanted to support the city’s team and came out for opening ceremonies wearing a Calgary Flames jersey.

During the MX2 qualifications, GDR/Honda Canada/Fox Racing’s Wright grabbed the holeshot in his heat race and went on to lead every lap on route to his second heat race win of the season. Fox Racing support rider Brad Nauditt also grabbed the holeshot in his heat race and put in a good battle for the win but would have to settle for the 2nd place spot.

In Arenacross, the tight confines of the area make the starts the most crucial element to the race. As the gate dropped for the first dry Main Event of the season, Brad Nauditt got the Royal Distributing holeshot award and lead for the opening six laps of the race before being passed by a lurking Dylan Wright. Wright went on to lead the remaining laps of the race on the way to his first victory of the season. Nauditt had his hands full for the next seven laps before being overtaken with two laps remaining and he finished the race in 3rd place.

Leaving Calgary with his first victory of the season, the MX2 series points lead and the MX2 Triple Crown points lead, Dylan and the GDR/Honda Canada/Fox Racing team will now have all eyes on them as they carry the red plate into Round 3.

AX Tour Round 2 Race Results:

After a climatic end to the 2018 Rockstar Energy Triple Crown series, the start of the 2019 season has been highly anticipated but soft spring soil conditions in BC, the opening round of the AX Tour in Abbotsford always proves to be a wild card race that anyone can win.

After a big crash during last year’s season finale, MX1 rider Colton Facciotti was not lining up for the AX Tour portion of the series to allow for more recovery time prior to the MX Tour. MX2 rider Dylan Wright would be the lone GDR/Honda rider during the AX Tour. After a disappointing result in last year’s Abbotsford Arenacross with a mechanical DNF, Wright was looking for a stronger start to his season in 2019.

With the dismal track conditions, riders struggled to put in decent laps with most opting to use their laps to survey the lines that were forming and constantly changing. Wright cruised around with hopes of putting in a strong qualifying time in the second session, but it was cut short due to deteriorating track conditions as well as timing & scoring issues. Dylan would have to rely on his 6th place qualifying time from session 1.

A bad qualifying time means a bad gate pick, so Dylan had to make the most of his starting position in the Heat race to advance himself into the Main Event. Wright took the holeshot and led every lap on route to the first heat race win of the season and his Main Event was looking promising for the GDR/Honda team.

With the soft soil conditions, the carnage on the first lap of the Main Event was almost unavoidable and Wright got tangled with a rider in the second corner. After crashing off the track, Wright struggling to re-enter which left him battling back from last place up to 7th place by the finish. But amongst all the chaos, it was Texas Native, Ryder Owens who was the surprise winner of Round 1 taking the first victory of the season!

WHAT'S NEXT

Round 2 of the AX Tour will be in Calgary, Alberta at the Western Arguem centre. Soil consistency is a dry, hard packed base that favours riders with smooth throttle control.

Denver racing started in the snow but that didn’t cool off Adam Cianciarulo. The Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki rider was on fire in Denver. When the riding was done, the snow had melted and Adam earned his 5th win, extending his points lead to eight.

250 CLASS

Adam Cianciarulo #92

In the main event, Michael Mosiman took the holeshot. Adam quickly followed in behind him. The Kawasaki pilot stalked Moisman for several laps and made repeated pass attempts – all of which were fended off. On lap seven, Adam would make the pass after a 4-turn-long, back and forth battle. With a clear track, he would ride to victory inside Broncos Stadium at Mile High.

“I’m always at my best when my backs against the wall. Man, I couldn’t be more proud of myself, couldn’t be more proud of the team. We got one more to go; I’ve had a good record in Vegas, so really confident there. But, I have to keep my foot on the pedal.”

GEICO HONDA

Honda pilots Rj Hampshire and Cameron McAdoo had an up-and-down night, but their perseverance made the difference. In the main, their battle towards the front would force them to face off. The teammates would battle for several laps with Hampshire eventually edging out McAdoo. Rj Hampshire would take 4th at the Denver Supercross at Mile High stadium and Cameron McAdoo finished 6th.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

In the main, Ken Roczen didn’t get the jump he needed. He was buried in the pack and when positions settled he found himself in 9th.

Tim Gajser rode two incredible races to take the top step of the podium in Trentino. The overall win didn't come easily though. He was victorious in two fierce battles in which dramatic, late passes determined the outcome.

Gajser had a perfect weekend. After winning the qualification race, he would benefit from selecting his preferred gate in both mains – an edge he would take full advantage of. In the first race, he started in 5th but would make several passes in succession to take 2nd. Gajser and the race leader, Antonio Cairoli, would push each other throughout the whole race. The Honda pilot would only need one opening. Seizing an opportunity, he would capitalize on a slight mistake by Cairoli and take the lead - much to the delight of the Slovenian fans in attendance. Tim would hold off a counterattack to take the win.

Gajser took the holeshot in the second race. As the pace started to quicken, Cairoli would pressure from behind and eventually take the lead. Gajser would bide his time before making a move. With 5 laps remaining, he would attack and regain the lead. It was a hard race to the end with both riders pressing. Gajser held off Cairoli, finished first, and secured the 1-1 sweep.

Nashville was a wild one. Before the main event even started, a crash of championship implication would shake-up the 250 East series. In the 450 class, Ken Roczen was on fire, however, a bit of bad luck would end any chance of victory.

250 CLASS

Martin Davalos #73

With his teammate out, Martin Davalos rose to the occasion as the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki Team’s only rider in Nashville. In the main, Davalos took advantage of a crash in front of him to gain valuable positions. By the end of lap one, he had secured the lead. With an open track in front of him, he blitzed the track, gapping the field (at one point) by 10 seconds. He slowed up a bit to savor the victory and lit the candles with a 3.5-second lead.

Austin Forkner #24

Austin Forkner suffered a hard crash in practice. He attempted to ride in the final practice, but ultimately his team decided to sit out the rest of the Nashville SX. His return is still to be determined.

Chase Sexton #23

Chase Sexton had an up and down day in Nashville, however, one thing was consistent - his speed. Chase qualified first and won his heat race. In the main, the Geico Honda rider started 3rd. Sprinting through the first rhythm, he made the pass for 2nd. And, by end of lap one, he had taken the lead. However, soon after the pass, he would get cleaned out by Justin Cooper. Undaunted by the fall, Chase remounted his Honda and worked his way back to 2nd. With Austin Forkner unable to compete, Chase is now only 3 points back from the overall lead.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

All signs pointed to this being Ken Roczen’s night. He was first in qualifications and won his heat race convincingly. However, a bit of bad luck would play spoiler. In the main event, Ken started 8th but made short work of the riders between him and his prize. While in 3rd, he was putting tremendous pressure on Joey Savatgy who was in 2nd place – a pass seemed imminent. Nobody doubted he would go on to catch and pass the leader Cooper Web. Instead, Savatgy would fall in front of the Honda pilot creating an unavoidable crash. When Ken remounted he had gone from 3rd to 22nd. By the checkered flag, he had worked back to 8th.

RESULTS

450 Class:

• 8 – Ken Roczen (+ 50.242)

250 Class:

• 1 – Martin Davalos
• 2 – Chase Sexton (+ 03.508)

Round 3 of the 2019 MXGP World Championship rolled into the Netherlands this weekend and tested the riders with their first sand track of the season at Valkenswaard. After grabbing his first moto win of the season at the previous round help at Matterley Basin, Slovenian born Tim Gajser came into the weekend looking to defeat series leader Antonio Cairoli. In the MX2 division, Calvin Vlaanderen was coming off two consecutive 4th place finishes and aimed to take the step up onto the podium at Valkenswaard.

The weekend started strong for Gajser as he was around the top of the board in both Free & Qualifying Practice Saturday morning. When the Qualifying Race rolled around in the afternoon Gajser took a very collected second place finish - not pushing the envelope too hard and cruising to a good gate pick for Sunday's races. Unfortunately for Gajser's MX2 stablemate Calvin Vlaanderen as he got caught up in a first turn crash in his Qualifying Race. Vlaanderen luckily was unharmed and battled back for 14th pick on the gate the following day.

Sunday saw more cloudy and cold weather conditions but the riders were ready to battle it out nonetheless. Calvin Vlaanderen had the fastest time in morning Warm Up and looked poised for a strong finish. But a tough start would make things difficult for Vlaanderen in MX2 Moto #1, although he was able to work his way up to 4th from outside the top 10. He made things somewhat easier for himself in Moto #2 when he took the green flag in 6th, but a 4th place finish unfortunately was not good enough for the overall podium. 4-4 Moto scores handed him 4th place overall, but he now holds 3rd Place in the Championship points standings.

In MXGP Moto #1, Tim Gajser jumped out in the front of the pack and held 3rd position for the opening laps. Unfortunately he suffered another big crash on Lap 4, although he quickly remounted and got going again. At the end he worked his way up to 7th position despite the mishap. In Moto #2 Gajser got another good start and settled into 2nd position where he would eventually finish. His 7-2 scores were good for 3rd Overall and he kept his podium streak for the season alive. Gajser holds 2nd Place in the Championship standings. Fox Goggle athlete Jeremy Seewer also had another positive weekend in the Netherlands and went 8-6 for 7th Overall.

Adam Cianciarulo #94

Adam Cianciarulo brought the speed to Houston. He was first in qualifying and won the first of the three mains. In the second main, however, Cianciarulo was forced off the track in turn one, dropping him back to tenth. He was able to move up through the field, but a fall landed him back in tenth at the checkered flag. In the last main, he was riding in the top five when a rider fell in front of his path. He was unable to avoid the downed rider and went down himself. He remounted quickly, picked off several riders, and passed for third on the final lap.

Garrett Marchbanks #61

In the first main, Marchbanks got off to a rough start but was able to work his way back to tenth. In the second main, he had a great start and passed for third on the final lap to finish on the podium. In the last main, he crashed in the first turn and was forced to retire early.

The 2019 MXGP World Championship landed in Europe this weekend for Round #2 of the series. Following an exciting opening round in Argentina, the riders & fans were excited to get things rolling in Europe at one of the most popular tracks on the circuit - Matterley Basin in Winchester, England. HRC's Tim Gajser came into the weekend sitting second in points behind veteran Antonio Cairoli and looked to show he will be a threat for the title this season. Off the track, we were excited to debut the Fox 74 Show, our all new live show activation taking place at numerous events in the paddock this season. See below for all the action from the weekend!

We got the race weekend started on Friday night at Meredith Motocross who hosted an in-store event at their shop in Bristol. We were lucky to have Jeff Emig with us as a special guest, and Ricky Carmichael was able to FaceTime into the shop for a Q&A session with the fans. The banter was turned up as usual with those two and everyone in attendance got some good laughs and insight on the sport.

On the track the action was exciting as usual, and Tim Gajser was really feeling it on his personal favorite track. Tim was fastest in both Free & Qualifying Practice and took a come from behind win in the MXGP Qualifying Race on Saturday after getting a bad start. HRC's MX2 contender Calvin Vlaanderen had a bit of a tough day on Saturday and would earn 9th gate pick from the Qualifying Race after spinning out of the gate a rounding the first turn towards the back of the pack.

Sunday was a special day for Tim Gajser as he celebrated the memory of his late brother Žan on what would have been his birthday. We were able to get a custom helmet made for Tim that brandished his brother's name and a special cartoon on the back that stated "Always With Me 24/3."

On Sunday, Gajser jumped out to an early lead in MXGP Moto #1 and started to put a nice gap on the field until he suffered a massive crash on Lap 4. Miraculously he was able to remount and keep going in 3rd position, where he eventually finished while threatening for 2nd. In Moto #2 Gajser was on a mission to get his first win of the season and made a nice pass on Cairoli in the opening lap. He held on for the win and an emotional victory for the Slovenian. His 3-1 results were good for 2nd Overall on the weekend and his second podium in a row. Fox goggle athlete Jeremy Seewer also had a positive weekend and improved on his Round #1 results, going 8-5 for 7th Overall.

In the MX2 division Calvin Vlaanderen got off to a decent start and was running 5th before crashing around the half way point. Luckily he was also able to remount and pushed back through the pack to finish 8th. Moto #2 was a different story for Vlaanderen as he started the race inside the top 3 and eventually finished up in 2nd. Unfortunately his first Moto result cost him a chance to stand on the podium and ended up 4th overall with 8-2 scores.

This weekend, the 250 west coast athletes returned to work; they haven’t missed a step since the break. The Pacific Northwest fans were greeted with unseasonable (and welcome) dry weather, exceptional racing and a nail biter of a finish. In the 450 series, Roczen returned to the podium, an achievement overshadowed by a controversial finish.

250 CLASS

Adam Cianciarulo #92

After a shaky start in the main, Adam quickly worked his way to the front, however, he would run out of racetrack before he could make a pass attempt on the leader. After the first couple turns, Adam had successfully avoided a mess of downed riders, but this held the Kawasaki pilot up a little and he found himself in 5th. It didn't take him long to charge to 2nd but he was never close enough to make a meaningful pass attempt. He would have to settle for 2nd this week.

Garrett Marchbanks #61

The rookie showed confidence and poise in Seattle, however, he is still hunting that elusive first career win. In the main, he was forced to navigate a minefield of downed riders. Although he was able to keep his bike upright, the delay landed him outside the top 10 from the start. From back in the field, he quickly worked his way up, as high as 6th. However, he would run into some trouble halfway through the main and fall back to 16th. By the checkered flag, he had recovered to finish 12th.

Geico Honda

Any hopes of a podium finish for Team Geico Honda was over almost before the race started. Teammates, Cameron McAdoo and Rj Hampshire lined up side-by-side for the main. When the gate dropped, they came together during the first sprint. The end result was a 6th place finish for Hampshire and an 8th place for McAdoo.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

After two consecutive weeks off the podium, Ken Roczen was pleased to earn a 2nd place finish in Seattle. The Honda pilot started well and settled in behind the leader, Marvin Musquin. In the early laps, Musquin would jump a series of doubles under a waving red-cross flag, opening up a gap from the field in the process. Ken Roczen was never able to make up the time. In the end (per the rules), Musquin would be docked seven points for the infraction, but retain the win.

Chad Reed #22

Chad suffered a severe crash and was unable to finish the race. We are sending Two-Two our healing vibes and hope he gets well soon. His return this season is questionable, but the Suzuki rider had this to say on his Instagram, “Thanks for all the love. I love having a purpose and a goal. Though it seems impossible, right now I’m setting a goal of racing Vegas because I know I’ll be a better human for it.” If you get a chance, send him some love: @crtwotwo

The Freestone Spring Championship kicked off this past week in Wortham, Texas. The Miller family ranch was a host to nearly 1,400 race entries in over 40 classes. This year was especially grueling for the Pro Sport and B classes, offering 25 minute motos for the Pro Am’s, and 20 minute motos for the B class, in an effort to truly begin to give these athletes a taste of the big leagues, as many will be transitioning to a professional career in the upcoming year or two. Team Green’s Seth Hammaker came out swinging in the 250 A Pro Sport class and won the first moto. Unfortunately, he went down hard in Open A and was unable to continue. In the 125cc classes, both Jeremy Ryan and Gage Linville were running fast and winning motos, yet some bad luck in the finals put a damper on overall scores, as Jeremy ended up handlebar deep in a pond in the 125cc 12-17 class. Both of them proved they had the speed to run out front. Ryder DiFrancesco was on point this week winning 4 motos, but most impressive when he went down in the first turn, remounted, and proceeded to pass the entire field and took the win, really showing how hard he can push to come back from a rough start! In the younger 85cc 9-11 class, NorCal ripper Enzo Temmerman went 1-1 motos to take home the gold.

Congratulations to our champions and all who traveled to Texas to compete in the Spring Championship! Below is a list of Fox Team podium finishes.

Indianapolis brought more of the same for Austin Forkner and the Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki team. At Indy, Austin won for the 5th time in the 250 East Supercross series. He struggled early on in the day, but in the main event, he was nearly flawless.

250 CLASS

Austin Forkner #24

In Indianapolis, Austin Forkner had to overcome a tough heat race on his way to the main. He suffered a rough crash and was also battling an illness. However, when the main started, any doubt of his readiness was quickly erased. He launched out of the gate to grab the holeshot. He led the entire race at a high pace and finished over 6 seconds ahead of the runner up. The win in Indianapolis gives Austin a 26 points lead with three races remaining.

Martin Davalos #73

In Indy, Martin Davalos was looking to rebound from a disappointing 10th place finish in Daytona. In the main, he got out to an excellent start. He quickly worked his way to 3rd and was riding on pace with the leaders. Towards the end of the race, two riders were able to pass but he held on to 5th to gain his 3rd top-five finish this season.

Chase Sexton #23

Chase Sexton continues to show his speed as he chases his first career win. The night couldn’t have started better as he won his first heat race convincingly. In the main, he quickly worked his way into 2nd place behind Austin Forkner. However, he was never able to reel in the race leader. His 2nd place in Indy makes it back-to-back 2nd place finishes for the Honda pilot. He now has four podiums on the year and moves into 2nd place in the points race.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

Ken Roczen struggled all night. In the main, he didn’t get the jump he needed. After one lap, he was in 8th. He attempted to work his way forward but was unable to make any momentum. He would hold 8th the entire race.

Chad Reed #22

The day after this birthday (3/15), Chad Reed was looking to keep the celebration going with a good performance in Indy. He had a solid start to his day – finishing 4th in his heat race and qualifying 9th overall. A podium finish would elude him this week due to a bit of bad luck. He would collide with another rider during the first lap. After remounting his bike, he was able to recover to finish just outside the top 10.

450 Class:

• 8 – Ken Roczen (+ 42.269)

250 CLASS

Austin Forkner #24

The Daytona win is yet another milestone on Austin’s 2019 season. “It feels amazing to win at a place like Daytona,” said Forkner. However, the night wasn’t all smooth sailing for the Kawasaki pilot. After the first few turns, he found himself in second, chasing the leader (Peters), and battling with Cooper who was in pursuit. He would battle with Cooper for a couple of laps before overpowering Peters with an aggressive sprint down the pit row rhythm section. Ultimately he would finish in first ahead of second place by nearly 6 seconds.

Martin Davalos #73

In the main event, Martin settled into 7th place and pushed hard towards the front. He had worked his way into sixth when he when down in a rhythm section. He quickly rebounded and managed to finish in the top 10.

Chase flashed his speed yet again, but he would run out of racetrack. In the main, he worked his way into 4th early on and from there, methodically worked his way into 2nd. His lap times were on pace with the leader, but he never made up enough time to challenge for the win.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

In the main, Ken Roczen fell victim to the sand pit. Off the start, he was buried in the pack, and in turn one he would collide with Cole Seely and Chad Reed. He remounted his Honda and was able to make his way back to 8th by the checkered flag.

Chad Reed #22

Reed finished 4th in his heat race as he looked for his fourth Daytona Supercross win. In the main, he rounded turn one in the top ten and would maintain that position until the end.

This year marks the 10th annual running of the Daytona Ricky Carmichael Amateur Supercross, and with nearly 1,200 race entries, 2019 did not disappoint. Following the pro night show on Saturday, the track was reconstructed to accommodate 34 amateur classes of all ages. It is a privilege and an honor to be able to race within the iconic walls of Daytona International Speedway, a humbling experience just driving through the facility, to say the least. This event is true to the Supercross format, with a heat race, LCQ if needed, and a winner-take-all main event. One shot to take the top spot!

Seth Hammaker and Ryder DiFrancesco, Team Green teammates from opposite corners of the US, both stood out amongst the field earning a pair of championships for each of them. Seth looked dominant in the 250 A and Open Pro classes, with the same to be said for Ryder D in the Min Sr. 1 & 2 classes. Michigan’s finest, John Grewe, also went home with double titles in the Vet classes.

Congratulations to all racers who came to compete at this amazing venue. Below is a list of Fox Team champions, and podium finishes.

Terrafirma 2 is the second installment in the Terrafirma series. Once again, T2 captured the essence of the ‘90s MX scene with great music and epic footage of the top riders of the era on and off the track. Highlights include Jeremy McGrath riding at Castillo ranch. The MC footage is some of the most iconic MX footage ever shot to this day. The late Donny Schmit ripping a frozen lake, Mike Metzger (still racing at the time) starting to show some of his freestyle skills and a compilation of the ultracompetitive 1995 motocross nationals.

“Terrafirma 2. The Supercross King play-riding at the peak of his career. At the time this private track had the biggest natural dirt jump in California. If this doesn’t get you fired up about moto, then I can’t help you. No champion has ever had more fun being champion than Jeremy during this era. He was always fun to be around - so comfortable, relaxed and happy. Watching him ride a dirtbike was a thrill and still is!” – Pete Fox

This week, Supercross headed to Atlanta for an East, West showdown - where teammates and red plate holders would face off. In the end, Adam Cianciarulo would outpace his fellow Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki teammate. However, both riders would finish first in their respective series.

250 CLASS

Adam Cianciarulo #94

With two wins in the race format, Adam has become somewhat of a showdown specialist. However, even with that resume, besting his undefeated teammate, Austin Forkner, was a told order. He had his work cut out for him from the beginning. After turn one, Forkner took the lead – as he has all year – and with a clear track, was off to the races. Adam, sitting in third, would show his speed as he passed Chase Sexton and later reeled in his teammate Forkner. He would light the candles in Atlanta to become the first three-time showdown winner in Supercross history.

Austin Forkner #24

For the first time this year, Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki teammates, Austin Forkner, and Adam Cianciarulo would face off. Both riders would run the red plate, however, with an undefeated win streak, Austin was the one to beat. When the gate dropped, both Kawasaki pilots wasted no time getting to the front. Austin would take the holeshot and led the opening laps. He would eventually be passed by teammate Adam Cianciarulo and later Dylan Ferrandis to finish third. However, he was the fastest east-coast rider and extends his points lead to 18.

Martin Davalos #73

Davalos started mid-pack in the main event. From there, he played defense to keep the competition at bay, finishing eighth on the night.

Garrett Marchbanks #61

Atlanta wasn’t Marchbanks night. In the main, he was pinched out of the lead group as the field rounded turn one. This would force him to work through the pack. With three minutes left, he would be involved in a crash. It took him a while to recover and he settled for 20th.

Rj Hampshire #31

Rj wasn’t 100% for the main, having crashed during Friday's press day. A crash in the main compounded issues, dropping him to 21st. He would regroup to salvage 12th.

Cameron McAdoo #44

McAdoo struggled all night. He had a rough heat race and was forced to get to the main via the LCQ. In the main, he was riding mid-pack until a crash would have him settle for 16th.

Chase Sexton #23

In Atlanta, Chase flashed his speed once again. For the first half of the race he challenged for the win. However, a few small mistakes dropped him to forth. It was just off the podium, but Chase was happy with the ride.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

In the main, Roczen had an impressive start – rounding the first turn from the outside in second place. Unfortunately, he would lose momentum through the first rhythm section and drop multiple positions. He would work his way to 5th and take advantage of a mistake by Plessinger to take 4th. Having lost touch with the lead group, he would finish in 4th place.

Chad Reed #22

Reed didn’t have a good start in the main. He would get pinched in the start and got buried in 12th. He would hold his position for most of the race, eventually finishing 13th.

450 Class:

• 4 – Ken Roczen (+ 18.325)
• 13 – Chad Reed (25 laps + 16.241)

250 Class:

• 1 – Adam Cianciarulo (20 laps)
• 3 – Austin Forkner (+ 11.821)
• 4 – Chase Sexton (+ 14.015)
• 8 – Martin Davalos (+ 29.244)
• 12 – Rj Hampshire (+ 46.818)

The start of the 2019 MXGP World Championship finally took place this weekend in Argentina at the beautiful Neuquen circuit in Patagonia. After months of detailed preparation as well as multiple pre-season warm up races, the big dance was finally here and the riders were chomping at the bit to get going. HRC's Tim Gajser came into the weekend feeling positive after a strong off-season and the 2016 MXGP World Champion was ready to get the new campaign underway. Gajser's MX2 teammate Calvin Vlaanderen was also notable for the start of the season as the South African born rider enters his second season with the HRC team and has been tagged as a championship contender. The entire HRC crew were part of our Spring LE release of the Airline Collection, and ran the Red colorway all weekend.

Gajser was off to a good start on Saturday with the fastest time during MXGP Free Practice and second fastest in Qualifying Practice. He grabbed the holeshot in the Qualifying Race on Saturday afternoon and held the lead until running into some issues with 5 laps to go. He first slid out in a corner, then had a big crash in the roller section just a few turns later. Luckily he was uninjured and remounted to finished up 9th despite the big get-off. In MX2, Calvin Vlaanderen was in the mix with his Qualifying times but suffered a not so spectacular start in the Qualifying Race - forcing him to battle from behind. He put in a solid effort and worked his way up to 5th from outside of the top 10 for a solid gate pick on Sunday.

The MX2 Class kicked off the 2019 race season on Sunday and Calvin Vlaanderen got off to a good start in Moto #1 just inside the Top 5. He put in a solid ride and finished up in 4th place. Moto #2 was almost a carbon copy of the opening race for Vlaanderen, starting 5th again and moving to 4th where he stayed for the rest of the race. Despite missing the podium by just 1 spot in 4th Overall, it was a really positive start to the season for Vlaanderen who will be surely stand atop the podium in the coming weeks.

After his big crash on Saturday, Tim Gajser returned to the fray a little sore but ready to go for Sunday's race program. The Slovenian started 4th in Moto #1, and was able to work his way past both Clement Desalle and Romain Febvre for 2nd at the end. In Moto #2 Tim started off 2nd, dropped to 3rd momentarily but took control of second position back by Lap 7. In the closing stages of the race he was closing on race leader Tony Cairoli, but ran out of time before he was able to get close enough to make a move. Gajser scored 2-2 results for 2nd Overall and also a great start to begin the year.

New addition to the Fox crew, Factory Yamaha's Jeremy Seewer earned himself a respectable Top 10 overall finish over the weekend with a 9th. After missing all of last season riddled with injuries, HRC's Brian Bogers got his year started with 16-17 moto scores for 18th Overall. Surely Bogers will bring more to the table as the season progresses but it was good to see him back out there competing after a tough 2018 season.

WHAT'S NEXT

With the season kickoff now behind us, the MXGP World Championship tour moves back to Europe for Round #2 of the series coming up in a few weeks at Matterley Basin in the UK March 23 & 24. See you there!

Detroit was an opportunity for Austin Forkner to make a statement. Not only was the Kawasaki rider coming off two straight wins and in control of the red plate, but in the Triple Crown race format he would face off against the field three times. In the end, Austin made history.

250 CLASS

Austin Forkner #24

Whether Austin momentum is fueled by the confidence of two straight wins or sugary pixie sticks is unclear. What’s evident, is the Pro Circuit pilot is on fire. The red plate is no weight to bear for Austin. In the challenging Triple Crown format, he came away with a 1-1-1 overall victory. This is the first clean sweep of the podium in this racing format and increases his win streak to three. Austin now holds a 13-point lead in the 250-east region.

“Great night though, really happy with my riding and starts. Feeling good”

Martin Davalos #73

Davalos matched his season best as he continues to climb the standings, moving from 10th to 8th place in the overall points race. He was in the hunt for a podium all night, and his 5-7-5 scores were enough for a 5th overall.

“I'm really happy with the starts we had tonight, and it put us in a good position to fight up front.”

Chase Sexton #23

For the second straight week, Chase Sexton took third place in the 250 East region. He clearly has the speed to compete with the best, and it seems only a matter of time until he claims his first career win. His 4-4-2 scores, in the difficult Triple Crown format, proves he is a consistent threat; he is a few mistakes away from challenging points leader Austin Forkner.

“Detroit in the books, Fastest qualifier and 3rd on the night. Not satisfied until I’m on the top so back to work this week, so we can come out swing in Atlanta”

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

Ken Roczen struggled with his starts all night; this forced him to chase the leaders throughout the three-race format. Fighting through illness, he was playing damage control; his 5-6-5 scores were enough for a 5th place overall finish. The Honda pilot now sits 6 points back from the leader, Cooper Webb.

“Glad tonight is over. Just 1 point away from the podium. I struggled all week with a flu. Still am! My body didn’t feel up to par tonight, but I tried to minimize the damage. Glad to be healthy. I hope I’m going to have a lot better week this week”

Chad Reed #22

Reed was flying all night, reminding the field he's a two-time champion; speed, great starts, and excellent line choices landed him in third place overall. In the first race, he rode with the leaders the entire event, finishing third. He followed up that stellar performance with 5th and 7th place finishes respectively; the 3-5-7 scores gave him a 3rd place overall finish in the challenging Triple Crown format. He heads to Atlanta squarely in the top-10 overall series standings.

“132 times! Trophies are cool! I’m getting the feel for this Champagne spraying”

450 Class:

• 3 – Chad Reed (3-5-7)
• 5 – Ken Roczen (5-6-5)

250 Class:

• 1 – Austin Forkner (1-1-1)
• 3 – Chase Sexton (4-4-2)

The Terrafirma series blasted onto the scene in 1994 - setting the bar for motocross videos in the ’90s. Starring current and future icons like Doug Henry, Ezra Lusk, Ricky Carmichael, James Stewart, and Travis Pastrana, it gave fans a glimpse inside the moto world for the first time. The film's unique mix of riding and behind the scenes footage became the ultimate formula for this 7 chapter series. Featuring epic locations, a roster of elite athletes, and a soundtrack to match the footage, there's no wonder why the Terrafirma series was so groundbreaking in our sport.

“In 1994, I went to Loretta Lynn’s to capture racing footage for our first video project - Terrafirma. One night after the races, we got three of our young racers together for a group interview. It was unscripted and spontaneous. When we edited Terrafirma, we thought it would be cool to sprinkle the footage throughout the video - they were so cool and funny. Pretty crazy to think about what these three little kids went on to accomplish in the sport: Ricky Carmichael, James Stewart, and Travis Pastrana.” – Pete Fox

Wow, it’s good to be a race fan. The 7th round of the 2019 Supercross series, in Arlington, Texas, was billed as an exciting one and boy did it deliver. Austin Forkner took his second consecutive win in dominant fashion, furthering his points lead. In the 450 class, we witness the closest finish in Supercross history – just 0.02 seconds separating the leaders.

250 CLASS

Austin Forkner #24

Austin was perfect all night. He was first in his heat race, qualified first, and won the main. The Pro Circuit rider had another stellar start – rounding turn one in second place. He would quickly make the pass for 1st, lead every lap and took his second consecutive win of the season.

“Another solid night! Thanks team!”

Martin Davalos #73

Davalos had a solid night - a great rebound from last week. In the main, he started in 8th and worked his way through the field to finish 5th. This was a huge improvement from his 16th place in Minneapolis and is a promising indicator for the rest of the season. He now moves up to the top ten in the overall standings.

“I’m happy I came out of Dallas first turn safe this year and healthy. I’m happy to be racing again and can’t wait for Detroit!”

Chase Sexton #23

Chase Sexton was tormented with mistakes all night but still achieved a great result - a testament to his race-winning speed. Chase had an excellent start in the main, riding with the leaders after the first turn. He would attack the field quickly, passing three riders in the first rhythm section to secure 2nd. In the early laps, he was pressuring the leader, Austin Forkner, but would stall the bike and lose multiple positions. He quickly rebounded but lost ground again after a fall. The 3rd place finish is his first podium of the season and positions him 4th in the standings.

“Happy and thankful to be back on the box this weekend, but with that being said I’m frustrated with the mistakes I made when I had the chance to make a win happen”

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

Roczen came to Texas with the red plate, and three straight podium finishes. The only thing eluding him this year was an overall win. And this looked to be his night until the very last turn. Roczen had another great start in the main and had a short battle with Musquin for 2nd place. From there, he set his sights on Tomac. He wasted no time attacking Eli and made the pass. He led the whole race which came down to the last turn. After the last set of whoops – with Roczen and Cooper riding almost bar-to-bar – Cooper would attempt the pass in the final turn before the finish line jump. Both riders lost momentum as they collided in the turn and they accelerated to the finish. Cooper would edge out Roczen by just 0.02 seconds.

“Nobody said it would be easy. I’m enjoying the way of figuring it out and putting the puzzle pieces all together with my team”

Chad Reed #22

It was a difficult night for Reed. He was sitting in 7th at the start of the 450 main but would struggle as the ride progressed and slip back to 11th.

“On track was a struggle all day and night just had no speed at all”

450 Class:

• 2 – Ken Roczen (+ 00.028)
• 7 – Chad Reed (+ 45.767)

250 Class:

• 1 – Austin Forkner (20 laps)

This weekend, we headed to Minneapolis, Minnesota for the 6th round of the 2019 Supercross series and the opening round of the 250 East season. Austin Forkner didn’t waste any time making his presence known. Start to finish, he led the competition and took the top step of the podium. In the 450 Class, Ken Roczen had another solid night, taking 2nd place and recapturing the red plate.

250 CLASS

Austin Forkner #24

Austin Forkner had a perfect night. He grabbed the holeshot in his heat race and finished 1st. The main was a carbon copy. He came out of the gate like a rocket and led every lap. As battles raged behind him, he methodically clicked off lap after lap – taking the checkered flag by a large margin.

Martin Davalos #73

Davalos looked fast all night but crashes would squander promising starts. In his heat race, he battled with teammate Austin Forkner for the holeshot, but a crash forced him to recover for 6th. In the main, he had another great start and was riding in second. However, a pass by Smith would lead to an unfortunate fall. He had to hold up slightly for Smith as he made the pass. This opened the door for Martin who made a block pass, taking down Davalos in the process. He struggled after the crash and finished 16th.

Chase Sexton #23

Sexton was up and down all night. He would finish 8th in his heat race after a few falls. In the main, he was riding with the leaders before he crashed during a pass attempt. He would recover and finish in the top 5.

Christian Craig #38

Christian Craig had a fall in turn one of his heat race but was able to recover, finishing 7th. He struggled at the start of the main, landing mid-pack after turn one. Still struggling with injury, he finished 20th.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

Ken Roczen's consistency continued like clockwork. In his heat race, he rode with the leaders - battling with Webb and Tomac – and finished 3rd. In the main, he was 3rd after the turn. The leaders would battle for position through the early laps, but passes were hard to come by. Webb, sitting 2nd, would eventually make the pass for 1st and begin to gap the field. Roczen, sitting 3rd, ultimately passed Savatgy, who was holding him up, but by then there was no catching Webb. Ken would have to settle for 2nd but regained the Red Plate in the process.

Chad Reed #22

Chad Reed had a solid night, finishing 6th in his heat race and 7th in the main. It was an impressive ride for Reed as he made his way to 7th from way back in the field.

450 Class:

• 2 – Ken Roczen (+ 10.695)
• 7 – Chad Reed (+ 49.012)

250 Class:

This past weekend the 2019 Supercross series headed south to what would be the most challenging conditions this year. By race time, San Diego’s Petco Stadium was soaked to its limit, leaving a minefield of natural obstacles: huge puddles, thick bike-seizing mud, deep ruts, and badly worn jumps. Though challenging, some riders would rise to the occasion. The real story of the weekend was the Pro Circuit team as they went 1-2 in the 250 final.

250 CLASS

Adam Cianciarulo #92

In Heat Race 1, AC was in third after the first turn. He made the pass for second, and worked towards the leader (Dylan) but was never close enough to threaten for 1st. In the main, he wouldn’t have to fight from the back. He grabbed the holeshot and never looked back. AC road a nearly flawless race to take 1st, giving him 3 wins on the season and catapulting him to first in the overall standings.

Garrett Marchbanks #61

It was a challenging night for Marchbanks, but he persevered. A DNF in Heat Race 2 would force him to take the LCG route into the 250 final. The extra laps would serve him well though. He took the holeshot in the LCQ, rode a strong race, and finished first. He would ride this momentum into the final. In the main, Marchbanks found himself in the front pack after turn one. He kept a fast pace throughout the main - passing both Pettis and Ferrandis – and took second. A mistake-free ride kept challengers at bay – earning him the first podium of his Supercross rookie season.

Cameron McAdoo #44

McAdoo finished 4th in his Heat Race to qualify for the main. In the main, he had trouble in turn two – ending up backwards and stuck in the mud. The Honda CRF250 pilot would battle back from 16th to finish 9th.

Rj Hampshire #31

In San Diego, Hampshire was ready to make a run for the podium. He won his heat race after nailing the start. In the main, he would nail his start again and was riding with the lead pack before the mud took hold of his bike. It would take him almost a lap to free his bike and by then he was 22nd. He road on to finish 15th.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

The 450 riders had to contend with challenging conditions, a deteriorated track, and a shortened race format (15 mins plus one lap). Despite these difficulties, early on, Roczen looked poised to take his first win of the year. He got the holeshot in his qualifying race and took first. And when the gate dropped in the main, the German rocketed down the main straightaway and secured the lead. Unfortunately, he would fall in a slippery turn two, dropping to 5th. He rebounded quickly and work back to second but was overtaken by Musquin on the final lap, finishing 3rd.

Chad Reed #22

Chad Reed’s experience showed in San Diego, as the 6-time San Diego Supercross winner road a strong race to finish 5th. His best finish of the year.

This past weekend, the 2019 Supercross series made its way back to Anaheim stadium for the 3rd round of the season. A2 would be the first round of the triple crown racing format. This format switches the night schedule to 3 main events with all qualifying taking place during the day.

450 CLASS

In the 450 class, Ken Roczen came into the night with the points lead in the series. Ken got out to a great start in the first main and lead the entire race - eventually getting passed on the last lap to take 2nd. Ken started mid-pack in the second main and had to work towards the front. After securing 3rd, a mistake in the whoops would see Ken go down and lose positions. However, he would recover and work his way back to 5th. Ken got out to another mid-pack start in the third main and pushed his way to 4th. The 3 moto finishes gave Ken 4th overall and would see him maintain his points lead as the series heads to Oakland.

Chad Reed rolled into A2 in custom racewear that paid homage to Jeremy McGrath - the all-time king of supercross and his hero in the sport. Chad had a tough start in the 1st main and would finish in 10th. He had a bike issue after the 1st race that would not allow him to line up for the 2nd main. However, in the 3rd main, he got a good start and finished 5th - his best finish of the year. His overall finish on the night would be 14th.

250 CLASS

In the 250 class, Adam Cianciarulo grabbed the holeshot in the 1st main and looked to be on his way to a win. A small mistake saw him go down and fall back in the pack. He would rebound and finish 4th. In the 2nd main, Adam would crash mid-way through the race and eventually finish 14th. In the 3rd main, Adam put in a solid ride and came home in 2nd - taking 5th overall.

Garrett Marchbanks had a tough night in all 3 mains. He would end the night 21st and is looking forward to Oakland.

&The Team Geico Honda riders had a good night. RJ Hampshire would finish 4th on the night with Cameron McAdoo finishing 6th.

WHAT'S NEXT

The 2019 Monster Energy Supercross series now heads to Oakland for round four of the series.

Round two of the 2019 Monster Energy Supercross series was a pivotal night for the Fox Racing team. Ken Roczen scored his second-consecutive podium while Adam Cianciarulo took his first win of the year.

250 CLASS

It was Adam's night in Arizona. He started his day finishing first in his heat race and backed it up with an impressive holeshot in the main. After the first turn, he quickly pulled away from the pack, led every lap, and took his first win of the series. With the victory in Arizona, Adam jumped 3 positions in the overall standing and sits 2nd heading into round three.

“What I’m stoked about the most is the starts; the starts are back. That feels really good. The team has been grinding, doing everything we can. We made a lot of strides in the offseason with myself, the bike, the team - everything. It translated well tonight.”

450 CLASS

For Ken, it was a tale of two races. He had a disappointing heat race and would later joke, “Luckily we don’t get points for heat races.” In the main, he was a completely different rider. After taking the holeshot, he would lead much of the race with Jason Anderson in pursuit. Unfortunately, Steward ended up having a huge crash in the whoops, bringing a stop to the race, and later a staggered restart.

Several riders would take advantage of the restart, including Anderson, who gain significant ground on Roczen. Anderson would eventually make an aggressive pass on Roczen – taking him down in the process. Roczen would lose several positions but would bounce back yet again to claim third place and the overall points lead. Ken will be bringing the Redplate to A2 on the 94 HRC Honda.

“I bounced back at least and came back on the podium – the third place. That was super good; I’m pretty happy to be back on the podium. My team has been working so good, it’s unbelievable and I’m super happy with everything right now. Everybody that’s in my corner, I want to give you a huge thanks and also to the people that watch and all the fans.”

This past weekend marked the start of the 2019 Supercross series. The stage was set in Anaheim, California to see what the New Year would bring the top supercross riders in the world.

In the 450 Class, we would see Ken Roczen and Chad Reed lining up, as well as Adam Cianciarulo and Garrett Marchbanks lining up in the 250 class.

Team Geico Honda rider’s RJ Hampshire and Cameron McAdoo would also be there in the Fox V3 helmet.

There was a chance of rain that did materialize during the second qualifying session of the day, and eventually, let up and lead into what appeared to be a dry night of racing, but it wouldn’t last long. The rain started to come down as the 450 riders lined up in their heat races.

In the 450 class, Ken Roczen got out to a great start in his heat race and would go on to win. Chad Reed would have to work his way through the LCQ to get into the main.

In the 450 Main, Ken was off to a good start and worked his way to the front of the pack. He would go on to finish 2nd and escape the rain at A1, earning valuable points towards the championship. Chad Reed got stuck in a first run pile up and would eventually work his way to 9th. A great finish considering the conditions.

In the 250 class, Adam got a good start in his heat and worked his way to the front to take the win. Garrett Marchbanks would finish 6th and transfer directly to the main in his supercross debut. RJ Hampshire won his heat race and transferred directly to the main.

In the 250 Main, AC appeared to have the holeshot but lost control going into the first turn and nearly crashed. He eventually worked his way back to the front of the pack. However, a mid-race collision with RJ Hampshire would push him back. He put on another charge and finished the race in 5th. RJ finished in 4th, Garrett Marchbanks in 6th and Cameron McAdoo in 11th.

On to Phoenix this weekend!

The 47th Annual Winter Olympics kicked off this past week at Gatorback Cycle Park, Florida. In 2017, this event was plagued with downpouring rain, flooding, and delays. This year was quite the opposite. Riders and spectators were greeted with beautiful weather all week long. The Mini-O’s feature a unique competitive format: riders compete on both Supercross and Motocross tracks, champions are crowned in both disciplines, and SX and MX scores are combined to give highest honors to the overall “Olympiad” of the event.

Hailing from Chile, Hardy Munoz was running red hot during the Supercross portion of the week, proving to be a podium threat each moto and leading him to a 450 A SX title. Texan, Grant Harlan, also in the 450 Pro Sport class, caught and passed all but one rider in the final moto to lock in the championship on the outdoor MX track. The B class was stacked with talent this year, putting Stilez Robertson to work after recently coming back from injury. In the end, Stilez claimed some moto wins, yet had to settle for a handful of podium finishes aboard his KX250f. South African Dirco van der Westhuizen charged to an MX victory in the 450 B Limited, and put together a combined SX/MX effort in the CollegeBoy for a silver medal Overall Olympiad. In the Women’s 12+ class, Jordan Jarvis (J.J.) was on fire, as usual. She won on the outdoor track, but unfortunately was taken out hard by her competition in supercross, leaving her with a 2nd overall Olympiad score. From the West Coast, Jeremy Ryan lined up with his East Coast Fox teammate Gage Linville. They traded motos on their 125cc machines, with consistent podium finishes all week long. Also making the trip from California, Hunter Yoder threw down a 2-1 moto score in MX to earn the SuperMini 2 (13-16) title. 85cc pilot Casey Cochran tallied a staggering 8 podium moto finishes. Thor Powell capped off his last 65cc race with a controversial win for the title in the SX 65cc (7-11). Michigan’s John Grewe was on his normal path of success, as he hammered out 5 titles, 3 Olympiads, and earning him the Vet Masters Special Award at the end of the week!

Domination. Fox riders Brett Rheeder, Andreu Lacondeguy and Ethan Nell sweep the podium at the world’s toughest mountain bike event!

BRETT RHEEDER - 1ST PLACE

In his sixth trip to Red Bull Rampage, Brett Rheeder showed the perfect combination of speed, amplitude, and his patented style to take the top step of the podium and his first Rampage win. His huge styled out flat 360 was done on a line only he attempted and helped to separate him from the competition with a final score of 89.66. He only needed that first run score and his second became a victory lap after waiting out the runs of his competitors. Brett adds this victory to a stunning list of achievements in the sport of Freestyle Mountain Biking. Congrats Brett!

Watch Brett Rheeder Winning Run

ANDREU LACONDEGUY - 2ND PLACE

Always a fan favorite, 2014 Redbull Rampage winner and Mountain Bike legend Andreu Lacondeguy showed passion and precision as he pulled out all the stops and pushed his Fox teammate Brett Rheeder to the limits with his final run. Adding his iconic style to giant airs during his second run he was on a burner until a late crash cemented his second place position with his incredible first run score of 87.33 - only 2 points behind Rheeder. Another Rampage podium adds to his already astonishing competition history, and you can bet he'll be back with his eyes on the top step for 2019!

Watch Andreu Lacondeguy Second Place Run

ETHAN NELL - 3RD PLACE

At only 21 years of age, Ethan Nell has already positioned himself as one of the most exciting new stars in the world of Freestyle Mountain Biking with his second podium at Rampage. Only 2 years ago, Ethan was digging for competitors like Andreu Lacondeguy. He got his first shot at the event in 2017 and made the most of it with a 3rd place finish. He had to up his game dramatically this year to maintain that podium position. His aggressive riding style and in-depth knowledge of the terrain in Virgin, Utah set his first run apart and came in at 86.33 - good enough to best everyone except his two Fox teammates. Big things are on the horizon for Ethan, and we expect him to keep climbing that podium in 2019 and beyond!

Brett, Andreu, and Ethan are part of the Fox MTB Global Freestyle team and compete in our podium proven products including the Rampage Pro Carbon helmet and Flexair jersey's, pants and gloves.

The 2018 WESS Championship headed to Sweden over the weekend for Round 7 of the 8 round series at the epic Gotland Grand National. The event has run consecutively since it's establishment in 1984, and welcomed over 3,000 riders this year to battle in the cold and wet conditions. Manuel Lettenbichler came into the weekend sitting 2nd in the season points standings, with just a small gap between him and the series leader. Taddy Blazusiak appears to have his season back on track after a tough start to the year, and entered the weekend 5th in the standings after a positive 4th Place performance at the previous round at Hawkstone Park in the UK. With heavy rains and cold weather in the forecast for the weekend, surely anything could happen at Gotland!

The weather conditions took a turn for the worst on Friday evening, with heavy rainfall drenching the track and creating quite a challenge for even the most skilled riders. The Elite class took off at 12:30pm on Saturday, with 3,000 riders and pure carnage behind them. Blazusiak avoided much of the opening mayhem and ran towards the front of the pack to start the race. Lettenbichler was not so lucky and would have to fight from behind to put in a solid result.

By the final lap, Taddy Blazusiak had moved up to 4th place despite two small crashes. He finished up in 4th and was the top scoring WESS contender, just off the Swedish dominated podium. Manuel Lettenbichler unfortunately did not fare so well despite moving as far forward as 25th on the final lap. Another big crash for the German on the last lap pushed him back to 43rd Overall, but he did manage to maintain 2nd in the Championship standings regardless.

“To finish fourth for my first time riding this race and in these conditions is a result I’m pleased with. The Gotland Grand National is a unique race and one the Swedish riders clearly excel at. With the weather turning bad, it was always going to be difficult to match their experience in this type of mud. But I feel we did a good job – we worked well as a team to adapt to the changes and challenges we faced, as they happened. In total I only had two small crashes, but I did struggle with keeping clear vision especially in traffic and that cost me some time. But like I said, fourth is a good day and I’m happy with that.” - Taddy Blazusiak

This past weekend, the AMA National Motocross series rolled into Budds Creek for the second to last round of the 2018 outdoor series. Once again, Fox team riders would be in the MX19 Motocross product line looking to finish the year strong.

Hot temperatures and high humidity would greet the riders as they kicked off the weekend with qualifying. In the 450 class, Fox team rider Ken Roczen continues to build strength and consistency after coming off an injury that saw him sit out the bulk of the Supercross series. Ken would put in a strong qualifying session posting the 5th fastest time. In the 250 class, Monster Pro Circuit Kawasaki riders Austin Forkner and Joey Savatgy are looking to capture an overall win before the season ends.

450 CLASS

In Moto 1, Ken has a great start - rounding the first turn in 2nd. He would immediately challenge Marvin Musquin for the lead and take the top spot after a couple more turns. Ken put a nice gap between himself and Marvin early in the race. With about 4 minutes to go in the moto, Marvin would start to put heavy pressure on Ken for the lead. But he would hold Marvin off and take the win by 8 seconds.

Kenny got out to another good start in the second moto, finishing the first lap in the top 5. Knowing he would need to finish in front of leader Marvin Musquin to get the overall win for the day, Ken set his sights on the lead. Midway through the race, he made the pass for the lead and started to pull away from Musquin. Kenny would hold the lead for much of the moto. But, with about 5 minutes to go, Eli Tomac had worked his way into second and started to challenge Ken for the lead. Tomac would make the pass and go on to take the win. Kenny would hold on to finish 3rd in the moto and 2nd overall on the day.

250 CLASS

Moto 1 would see Austin Forkner get out to a top 5 start with Savatgy buried in the pack. Austin would work his way to 3rd early in the moto and would hold that position to the finish. Joey was able to work his way up to 7th early in the race but would end up finishing the moto in 11th.

The second moto would see Austin get out to another good start with Joey struggling to get off the line. Austin would battle and hold 3rd until the late stages of the race. Coming under pressure from Mitchel Harrison, the two riders would nearly collide sending Austin off the track. Struggling to find a place to re-enter the track. Austin would lose several positions and finish 7th in the moto and 5th overall on the day. Joey would struggle to a 16th place finish and 13th overall on the day.

The teams will head to Indiana for the last round of the year next weekend.

This past weekend, the AMA National Motocross series rolled into the famed Unadilla circuit with just 3 races left on the 2018 schedule. Fox team riders would be featured in the MX19 Motocross gear as they looked to finish the season strong.

As the riders rolled out for the qualifying sessions on Saturday, rain appeared on the horizon. The riders would escape wet conditions in the first qualifying session, but their luck wouldn't last long. The storm started just as the second qualifiers began. As a result, the times from the first session would hold up. The highlight for Fox Racing team would be Monster Kawasaki Pro Circuit rider Joey Savatgy. Joey put in strong laps and would walk away with the fastest time in the 250 class.

450 CLASS

Unadilla was a mudder. The first moto began during a torrential downpour. Ken Roczen would get out to a mid-pack start. As Ken pushed to the front, he would stop in the pit area for a new set of goggles. Before the final laps, almost every rider had made a trip to the pits for new goggles. Ken would eventually finish 7th in Moto 1.

Moto 2 would see the rain let up, but the damage to the track was already done. The mud would start to get sticky and cause a whole new set of problems for the riders. Ken got out to another mid-pack start. He would pull in for goggles early and then start to work towards the front of the pack. He would work his way to 7th which would give him 7th overall on the day.

250 CLASS

Moto 1 would see Joey Savatgy get out to a good start in the treacherous conditions, exiting the first turn in 2nd. He would slip back to 3rd early in the race. Joey would eventually go down and pick himself up to finish 7th in Moto 1. Austin Forkner would have a couple of crashes, finishing the moto in 23rd.

Moto 2 would see Savatgy get out to another good start. Joey would put in a consistent ride in the harsh conditions to finish 3rd in the moto and 4th overall on the day. Austin Forkner's 2nd moto would go much better than the first. He would push hard and ride consistently to finish 9th. His moto finishes of 23rd and 9th would put Austin 14th overall on the day.

This past week (July 30th – August 4th) marked the 37th annual Loretta Lynn’s Amateur National Motocross championship. Typically hot and humid, this year saw cool temperatures graced the 1500 racers that qualified for the largest Amateur Motocross race in the world. Champions were starting to be crowned on Friday morning and carried all the way through until 4:30 pm Saturday with the WMX race being the final moto of the day.

Fox Brigade team athlete Jordan Jarvis capped off the weekend with a double moto win in the WMX event. Jordan held off early moto charges from Hannah Hodges, but by the end of the race, Jordan had a commanding lead to claim her victory. Jordan also contested the Women’s 12+ class during the event to capture a perfect 1-1-1 moto score. What an amazing end to an incredible week of racing for Jordan. A perfect 1-1-1-1-1 overall score for the week.

The next champion to be crowned was 65cc Fox Brigade team athlete Enzo Temmerman. Enzo fought extremely hard for this Loretta Lynn’s title posting 2-1-2 moto finishes for the overall. Enzo battled all week with rivals Logan Best and Landen Gordon, but at the end of the day, Enzo put his whole heart into this Championship claiming the 65cc 10-11 Limited title.

Fox team athlete Terry Bostard from Northern California was the next man to set his focus on a championship. Terry started the week off strong with perfect moto scores of 1-1. In his 3rd and final moto, Terry played it safe. He knew where he needed to be to claim the overall title finishing 4th. 1-1-4 moto scores were enough for Terry to claim the National Championship at the ranch in the +45 class.

John Grewe rounded out the Championship tally for the week with a 1-1-2 moto score. The man from Michigan rode all week flawlessly until the final moto of the Masters +50 class. Drama ensued while John was leading the final moto and he ended up being taken out by the 2nd place rider. John quickly remounted and started to charge back to the front. During the take-out, John’s thumb was broken, but he still raced on to finish 2nd in the moto. Damage was done though. The broken thumb would hinder John’s chances at a 2nd class title in the Senior +40 class.

We would like to congratulate all the Fox team riders on a wonderful championship effort this past week. We all know how stressful the week of racing at the ranch can be. We appreciate your dedication and focus on your racing and the Fox brand. Below is a list of the top 5 Fox team riders finishes at the ranch.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen got out to a great start in the first moto, grabbing the holeshot and leading the field into the first lap. He was the one to beat in the early stages of the race. The lead was his for the first half of the moto, and he was able to put some distance between himself and title contenders Marvin Musquin and Eli Tomac. Tomac would eventually pass Musquin for 2nd and start the push to catch Kenny. Ken would put in one of his best rides of the year - battling with Tomac and holding the lead into the late stages of the race. Tomac would finally make the pass with about 6 minutes left. Ken would finish a strong 2nd in moto 1.

t was another strong start for Ken in Moto 2. When the field exited turn one, he sat in 3rd. Charging forward, he worked his way into 2nd in the early stages of the moto - just behind Musquin. Late in the race, he would come under pressure from Eli Tomac. Not giving in, Ken engaged in an epic battle for 2nd place, holding Tomac off for several laps. Tomac would eventually pass Ken, followed by Musquin to take the win. Ken’s 2-3 finishes on the day earned him a 2nd overall on the day.

250 CLASS

The Monster Kawasaki Pro Circuit team would come into the weekend with just 2 riders gearing up for the race. Starting with 5 pilots at the beginning of the season, they are now down to just Joey Savatgy and Austin Forkner.

Moto 1 would see both Joey Savatgy and Austin Forkner get out to great starts, Joey with the holeshot and Austin in 3rd. The lead would be short lived for Joey as he would go down on the first lap. Austin would battle in the top 5 for much of the race. As the moto started to wind down, Austin put in a hard charge and made a pass to secure 2nd with about 5 minutes left of the moto. Joey would finish the moto in 10th.

Moto 2 would see Forkner and Savatgy get out to slow starts, both riders just inside the top 10 on the first lap. The two would work through the pack together for much of the moto, battling each other along the way. Austin would eventually tangle with a lapper and go down. Joey would continue to push to the front finishing 4th in the moto and finishing 5th overall on the day. Austin would finish 18th in the moto and 8th overall on the day.

In front of a packed crowd for the 4th of July race weekend, Ken Roczen gets his first moto win en route to a 2nd Overall at the Redbud National.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen got a good jump in Moto 1, but a down rider in turn two would briefly hold him up, keeping him just outside the top 10. By the end of lap one, he had worked his way into the top 5 with his eyes set on the leaders. He continued his charge, moving into second behind Eli Tomac. It appeared he would cruise to a 2nd place finish, but with just three laps remaining, his persistence would pay off.  A mechanical issue for Tomac would hand the lead over to Ken, and he would capture his first victory since his hand injury in Supercross. 

Moto 2 would see Ken get out to a good start; he would end up running at the front of the pack for the entire moto. His pace was the best it has been all year, battling with Marvin Musquin for the lead for most of the moto. Ken would eventually settle into a nice pace, holding 2nd place into the late stages of the moto. On the last lap, he would come under fire from Justin Barcia. Barcia would make a tough pass on Ken with just a few turns to the finish, pushing #94 back to 3rd, and netting him a 2nd overall on the day.   

250 CLASS

The Monster Kawasaki Pro Circuit team would come into the weekend fielding 3 riders: Austin Forkner, Joey Savatgy, and the returning Garrett Marchbanks - back from a knee injury suffered this year.

Austin Forkner and Joey Savatgy got out to good starts in Moto 1, running in the top 5 early. Austin would quickly push his way to 2nd running just behind Aaron Plessinger, and a battle between the two would ensue. Austin would eventually take the lead, but it would be short-lived. Aaron, looking to take the lead back, took the inside while Austin went to the outside. The two lines would come together, the riders collided, and Austin would go down. He was shaken up and took a while to remount. Plessinger would go on to take the win. Savatgy had a great moto going until a crash pushed him back to a 17th place finish. Marchbanks would put in a consistent ride finishing 6th. 

Moto 2 would see Austin and Joey get out to good starts - Austin running in the top 3 for much of the moto. Austin would battle with Alex Martin over 2nd place for a good portion of the race. A good pass would see him take 2nd and hold it to the finish. Joey would put in a good ride finishing 5th in Moto 2. Austin would end the day with a 7th overall, Joey and Garrett would end the day out of the top 10. 

WHAT'S NEXT?

Now we take one week off before continuing, July 21st for the Spring Creek National in Millville, MN.

Another weekend of racing is in the books. The halfway point of the 12-round series saw the world’s best line up at the only true sand track on the schedule - the legendary Southwick MX 338. It was a wild day of racing with rough riding conditions, several lead changes and dramatic late crashes.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen continues to build his strength and speed. Still nursing a hand injury from Supercross, he has been working during the outdoor season to make progress on his entire program.

Ken got out to a great start in Moto 1, knifing his way through a seam and taking the lead after the first turn. He would lead the early stages but would eventually surrender the lead to Barcia, and end the moto in 5th.

It was much of the same for #94 in Moto 2. He would get off to a great start in the early laps – as he has done all season. He would battle in the top 5 for the entire moto, eventually finishing 5th and taking 5th overall for the day.

250 CLASS

Moto 1 looked like Shane McElrath's to win, as he started to gap the field early. However, Austin Forkner kept pushing, working his way into second. Lap by lap, he would eat into McElrath’s lead. Eventually, reeling him in and making the pass for the lead. Austin then held off a late charge from Alex Martin and Aaron Plessinger to take the first moto win. Joey Savatgy suffered a crash mid-way through Moto 1 and finished 32nd. 

Austin and Joey both had excellent starts in Moto 2. Austin took the lead early - going from 3rd to 1st in a single straightaway - and kept a blistering pace for most of the moto. However, late in the moto, he would come under pressure from Alex Martin. As the two riders battled for the lead, Alex would go for an aggressive pass and the two riders would come together with both going down. Austin had the wind knocked out of him and would stay down for a while. He would eventually get up and finish the moto in 20th. Joey put in a good ride finishing 5th

This past weekend the National Motocross series made its way to Tennessee. The riders would line up at the Muddy Creek track to do battle in what many thought would be a mudder. Heavy rains the week leading up to the event had teams and riders fearing the worst for Saturday racing. As it turned out, the rains let up giving track builders time to get the facility dialed for the big show.

450 CLASS

Ken Roczen got out to a good start in the first moto, working his way to first and leading several laps in the early stages of the race. He would eventually finish 3rd in Moto 1.

In Moto 2, Ken got out to another good start. Once again, he would take the lead and stay at the front for the early stages of the race, eventually finishing 4th. With moto finishes of 3-4, he ended up 4th overall for the day. 

250 CLASS

Garrett Marchbanks suffered a knee injury at last weeks round. He would sit out Muddy Creek, hoping to make his return at Southwick. That left team riders Joey Savatgy and Austin Forkner to battle the rest of the 250 field in Tennessee. 

Joey and Austin struggled at the start of Moto 1. They would complete the first lap at the tail end of the top 15. However, by the end, both riders would work their way into the top 10. Austin would finish 5th with Joey right behind him in 6th.

Moto 2 was much of the same for the Monster Kawasaki Pro Circuit riders. They would have to work their way through the pack for the entire moto. Joey would eventually finish 6th with Austin coming home in 8th. This would match their overall finishes on the day.

Next up for the series is the famed Southwick sand track.

The Industry Hills Expo Center – thirty minutes outside of Los Angeles, CA -  played host to the Fox Stampede. We were incredibly proud to be the presenting sponsor, but much more than that – we were just excited to see some racing. We weren’t disappointed.

Flat-track racing is one of the most exciting sports you’ll ever be part of. The greatest challenge, successfully sliding a 300-pound bike around a 180-degree turn at top speed – all while looking for slip-second openings to make a pass. Race classes ranged from minis, tank shift, vintage singles to open twins, ladies, hooligans and more. It was loud, fast, and rowdy.

The Fox crew, family, and friends were there for all the action. In the pits, the event team handed out Fox pins and pennants and even raffled out a full gear set. The grandstands were packed with "Fox Heads" cheering their faces off. And on the track, we were represented by Frankie Garcia #24, Ricky Rinauro #249 and Fox friend and Atwyld founder, Anya Violet.  The crowds were excited, the competition was intense, and the action was relentless. Still, the event was just pure fun.

This past weekend marked the 4th round of the MX National series. The Fox teams came to Pennsylvania ready to do battle at the famed High Point Raceway.

 450 CLASS

Heading into the weekend at High Point, Ken Roczen was coming off his best result of the year in Colorado, finishing 2nd to Eli Tomac - he continues to build strength and speed as he recovers from a hand injury suffered during the 2018 Supercross series. This momentum would carry over to High Point as he posted the 5th fastest time in qualifying.

Ken got a good jump out of the gate in Moto 1. But, as the field entered turn one, he collided with a group of riders and went down.  When the dust settled, he found himself in the back of the pack and would have to mount an epic charge through the field to finish 7th.

The Honda rider would get the holeshot in Moto 2. And he would battle Eli Tomac in the opening stages of the first lap, trading the lead several times. Ken would continue to put in a strong ride, finishing Moto 2 in 3rd place. Moto results of 7-3 would see Ken end the day 4th overall.

250 CLASS

Monster Kawasaki Pro Circuit riders Joey Savatgy, Garrett Marchbanks and Austin Forkner put in great rides in the qualifying session finishing 4th, 6th, and 8th.

As Moto 1 got underway, Austin Forkner and Joey Savatgy got out to good starts, finishing the first lap in the top 10. Garrett Marchbanks was mid-pack and working his way through the field. Austin and Joey would continue to work their way to the front, eventually finishing 4th and 6th. Garret ended up twisting his knee and nursing his way to the finish - he would not line up for the start of Moto 2 due to his knee injury. 

Austin got out to a great start in Moto 2, battling at the front of the pack for much of the moto. He would eventually finish 2nd, fighting off a hard-charging Dylan Ferrandis on the last lap, and end the day 2nd overall. Savatgy would have a big crash forcing him to pull out of Moto 2.

GEICO HONDA RIDER CHRISTIAN CRAIG TO WEAR FOX RACEWEAR

On the dawn of the 2018 motocross series, Christian Craig finds himself on the factory Honda CRF450R via Geico Honda. The premier bike supported by the best team in the industry. Christian’s path has been far from ordinary. A broken back suffered in a practice crash in 2009 forced him to miss the entire 2010 season. Numerous injuries throughout his 5-year professional career saw Christian make the tough decision to retire from racing in 2013. He would check back into reality, get a regular 9 to 5 job, and slowly try to come to grips with life after racing. However, his racing spirit wouldn't let him stay away for long. He would be pulled back to the sport he grew up in and become a fill-in rider for Geico Honda in 2015. Fast forward to 2018 Motocross, Christian finds himself on a great team and in Fox racewear.

“I think it’s every rider’s dream to wear Fox I’ve actually never put the gear on until a couple of weeks ago and it was kind of surreal. The comfort and style are unlike anything else on the market and I am honored to be able to wear it this summer for outdoors.” – Christian Craig, Geico Honda

“Connecting with a rider like Christian felt like a great fit for us. His work ethic, family commitment and genuine love of racing falls right in line with our values as a brand. We are looking forward to a great outdoor season with Christian on the 450” – Chris Onstott, Global Sports Marketing Director

Christian will fill in at factory Honda on the CRF450R for the entire outdoors series. He will make his debut in Fox at the opening round of the 2018 outdoor series at Hangtown on May 19^th.

2018 JR. Motocross

Motocross families from across the United States swarmed the Lazy E arena this past weekend for the 3rd annual JR. Motocross event. Nestled in Guthrie, OK the Lazy E arena is the largest horse arena in North America. The dirt inside the arena is the best dirt a motocross racer could ever imagine riding on.

A small group of the Team Fox family was on hand to do damage within this arena on Saturday night.

First rider out of the gate was Jeremy Ryan. Jeremy suffered from a massive cold a few days before the event. Even spent Thursday in the hospital he was so sick. Jeremy sucked it up and went out in his first race and placed 2nd over-all in the Supermini 2 class. Jeremy's big heart didn't stop there. Next in line was the "Jesse Cup". Jesse Cup" is a race that features the top 6 athletes from the Supermini classes. The coveted " Jesse Cup" is a race in memory of Jesse Masterpool one of the best up and coming motocross athletes that past away years ago. With the focus of a sharp shooter, Jeremy went out and lead the "Jesse Cup" race from start to finish, claiming his first ever victory at the JR. Motocross event.

Another amazing feat was Fox team athlete Jesse Flock cleaning up all 3 classes he entered with authority. Jesse never hole-shoted a single event. Rather he started mid pack and would quickly slither his way through the narrow, tight one line track. His aggressive, smooth style made the event more than exciting for the crowd on hand. Jesse collect the Schoolboy 2, Open B and the 250 B title giving him a perfect score on his motos for the weekend.

Other outstanding rides were put in by Thor Powell in the 65cc 10-11 class. Thor was able to secure the holeshot and lead the race for several laps before getting passed. Thor ended up 2nd over-all on the night. Lastly, newest Fox team athlete Grant Harlan put on an amazing show within his main events. Grant lead most of his races at the JR. Moto x only to get edged out by friend and his Fox team mate Jesse Flock.

FOX Off-Road Athletes Taddy Blazusiak & Manuel Lettenbichler set to take on the ultimate challenge in the inaugural 2018 World Enduro Super Series

In 2018, the all-new World Enduro Super Series, aka "WESS," will aim to answer the age-old question of "Who is the best Off-Road rider in the world?" For the first time in off-road motorcycle racing history, this groundbreaking series will combine multiple racing disciplines including Hard Enduro, Classic Enduro, Cross-Country and Beach Racing into one ultimate championship. The series will take a uniformed points system to 7 of the world’s most well established and supported enduro events, maintaining the unique spirit and regulations of each race. Riders are free to compete on their preferred size of motorcycle, and entry to all events is open to both Amateur & Professional racers. 

With a series of this magnitude being established, our recently retired off-road legend Taddy Blazusiak has elected to return to racing with his eyes on the WESS title. Polish born Blazusiak hung up his boots back in December of 2016, after winning his final Super Enduro on home soil in Krakow. Being the most decorated off-road rider of all time with 6 FIM Super Enduro Championships, 5 AMA EnduroCross Championships, 4 X-Games Moto-X Enduro Gold Medals, and 5 wins at the Erzberg Rodeo, Blazusiak could not just sit idly by as the WESS gets rolling in 2018. Taddy is arguably more inspired and focused than ever thanks to the new level of competition set forth by WESS, and he is a definite favorite to take the championship.

“I’m super stoked about the WESS Series, and it’s a huge inspiration for me to make my return to racing. This is the type of championship that I’ve always dreamed about, and I’ve never been more focused than I am right now. Preparations have been going great and I’m feeling really comfortable on the bike. Time to go racing!” – Taddy Blazusiak

Joining Blazusiak in the WESS is fellow FOX off-road athlete, Manuel Lettenbichler. At only 19 years old, German born Lettenbichler is surely one of the rising stars in the off-road scene. His aggressive and varied riding style will serve as a big advantage across the different categories of racing that the series will offer.

“I’m really excited going into the WESS series. It’s going to be a busy race season with lots of events ahead of us. I think it’s a big motivation for myself with all of the new races we’ll be doing, like the Red Bull Knockout beach race. It’s a good chance for me to show what I’m capable of in all of the different types of riding. I’m all fired up for Portugal as I just returned from a warm-up event in the Dominican Replublic called the Machete Hard Enduro where I took 3^rd.”

See below for the full 2018 WESS Schedule:

May 11: Extreme XL Lagares, Portugal Hard Enduro

May 31: Red Bull Erzberg Rodeo, Austria Hard Enduro

June 8: Trèfle Lozérien, France Classic Enduro

July 24: Red Bull Romaniacs, Romania Hard Enduro

September 8: Red Bull 111 Megawatt, Poland Hard Enduro

As the second main started, Austin was off to a good start, sitting about 4^th as they rounded the first turn. As the riders entered a rhythm section on the first lap, Austin ran wide and landed on a tuff block on the side of the track going down in the process.

SEATTLE, WA - SUPERCROSS RACE RECAP

As the 2018 series reaches the final stages, the riders made their way to Seattle with just 5 races left for the 450’s and 2 races left for the 250-west class. There is always a chance of wet conditions in Seattle...This year was no different.

Rain hammered the stadium throughout the day forcing organizers to change the practice schedule during the day and shorten the main events for the night program.

For Fox riders, Seattle marked the debut of the all new Airline racewear. The Pro Circuit team would be in the navy/white with Chad Reed in the black. 

250 –

As the 250 riders entered Seattle, Fox Monster Pro Circuit Kawasaki riders Joey Savatgy and Adam Cianciarulo where sitting second and third in the points. Managing the tricking track conditions would be key for both riders as the night program got started. 250 heat 1 would see Adam struggle in the mud, going down and not able to recover to a qualifiing position. He would have to go to the last chance qualifier on a night where anything could happen with the tricky track condictions.

Joey had a great ride in heat race 2, finishing second. Adam would go on to win the LCQ to get himself into the main event.

As the main started, Joey was off to a great start, running in 3rd place. A fall mid way through the race would all but end Joey’s main event and any chances at the 250 west title. Adam would get out to a slow start running mid pack in the early stages. Adam would pick up the pace, geeting himslef in the podium postion in the late stages. On the final lap, Adam was able to make one last pass to finish 3^rd on the night and keep his slim championship hopes alive.  

450 –

Chad had a strong ride in the heat race, managing the muddy conditions perfectly to finish 3rd.

As the main got underway, Chad jumped out to a good start managing to exit the first turn in the top 10. Chad would ride a smart and consistent race running in the top 5 for most of the main event. As the race came down to the final stages, Chad looked to have his best finish of the year in hand starting the last lap in fifth place. The adverse conditions had taken their toll on Chads bike. As he rounded the last turn, battling to hang on to 5^th place, his bike finally gave in. Chad, never one to quit, immediately jumped off his bike trying to push it the final 5 yards to the finish. As smoke poured from his bike, Chad continued to hold it wide open slowly working his way across the line to finish 7^th, still his best finish of the year and continuing to solidify his place as a fan favorite.     

One of the most iconic moments of the year, two-time Champion Chad Reed pushes a smoking bike over the finish line at Seattle Supercross..

2018 Freestone Spring Championship

Wortham, Texas

March 19-24^th, 2018

The Freestone Spring Championship, for many, was the final stop of a long run of Spring racing over the month of March.  Taking place at the iconic Miller Ranch in Wortham Texas, this premier venue continues to draw the top talent from across the nation to prove themselves amongst the amateur ranks.  It’s unusual to run this entire event without a single day of rain, though the windy conditions proved it difficult for the crew to keep enough moisture on the track with the wind blowing all week long.  Luckily Friday and Saturday came with some cloud cover and kept the course in prime condition.

Garrett Marchbanks has been paving the road to his soon to be professional career for years now, and this week was no different as Garrett won both 250 A Pro Sport and Open A Pro Sport premier classes!  This was especially tough, as these two classes were a 3-moto format, 6 motos total, Garrett had to stay consistent all week, and battle back from a first moto crash.  Brazilian Enzo Lopes, also put a great performance together in 250 A and Open A Pro Sport classes, ultimately winning 1 moto, and 3 motos on the podium until an unfortunate crash in his final race as he was heading into the 250 A Pro Sport with a 3-2 score.  Freestone also marks the 2^nd round of the WMX Pro Women’s series. Rookie Jordan Jarvis dominated the field with a 1-1 finish and her first overall WMX win!  An early present to herself, as the young lady also celebrated her 17^th birthday during the event.  Oklahoma native, Jesse Flock, had his hands full this past week, as Jesse lined up for a total of 5 classes.  Jesse came away with 2 moto wins, and three overall podiums in the 250 B and 450 B classes.  Hardy Munoz, from Chile, also battled his way to 2 podium finishes in the 250 B and College classes.  Out of the Northwest corner of the US, Levi Kitchen made the trip to Texas worth while with a 125cc (12-16) third place finish, along with NorCal’s Enzo Temmerman in the 85cc (9-10) Limited class landing a silver medal ride with in second place.

Congratulations to all competitors that lined up at this event, as the pool of talent was exceptional.  Below is a list of top 3 performances by the Fox team.

Indianapolis, IN - Supercross Race Recap

This week saw the Supercross series make its way to Indianapolis for the 12th round of the 450 class and first round of the East/West Shootout in the 250 class.

Indianapolis would be a special event for Fox 450 and 250 riders, as they would dawn our Flexair Preest LE racewear, while Dean Wilson debuted the all-new Red Vue goggle. 

250 –

For the first time this year, the 250 class would have Fox Monster Kawasaki riders Austin Forkner, Joey Savatgy and Adam Cianciarulo battling for the win in the East/West Shootout. Martin Davalos would sit out due to injuries.

The weekend started out great with Joey Savatgy setting the fastest time in qualifying. The heat races would go equally as well with Cianciarulo and Forkner winning both.

As the main event started, Cianciarulo and Savatgy got off to good starts, finishing the first lap in the top 6. Adam would work his way to the front while Joey had a small crash that put him back in the pack.

Austin would get a mid pack start and battle all night to stay near the front. He would eventually finish in 5^th, one spot ahead of his title rival Zach Osbourne. 

Adam would go on to finish 2^nd on the night and gain valuable points in the Championship, leaving Indy in 3^rd in the west series, just 12 points behind series leader Aaron Plessinger.

450 –

Chad Reed put in strong heat race with a 4^th place finish putting him directly into the main event. Dean Wilson would finish 8^th and transfer directly to the main as well.

RYAN DUNGEY | PREEST LE

We recently caught up with Ryan Dungey at the Bakers Factory training facility in Florida. No surprise here, but retirement is treating him well, and some quality time with the Dunge is always a bonus for us. It was awesome to see him ripping some laps on the track in our all-new Flexair Preest LE kit and V3 Helmet with MVRS. 

St. Louis, MO - Supercross Race Recap

This weekend saw the Supercross series make its way to St. Louis for the 11^th race on the schedule for the 450 riders, and the 5^th round for the 250 east series. Austin Forkner entered the weekend tied with Zach Osbourne in the championship standing. The two riders would share the red plate for the night.  

250 Class –

Both Fox Monster Pro-Circuit Kawasaki riders started the day strong with Austin Forkner qualifying 2^nd and Martin Davalos setting the 4^th fastest time heading into the night.

As the night got underway, Austin and Martin were both lined up in the first heat race of the night. Both riders got off to great starts with Austin grabbing the holeshot and Martin close behind in second. Both riders would put in great rides finishing in the same order and getting great gate picks for the main event.

The main event would see Austin get out to a great start rounding the first turn side by side with series co-leader, Zach Osbourne. As the series leaders lead the pack into the first rhythm section, it looked like Osbourne would have the preferred inside line coming our of the section. The riders were still side by side mid-way through the rhythm lane when Forkner uncorked the tricky quad on the exit of the section. This move would see Austin clear Zach in the next 180 left hander and start to build a nice lead for the first half of the 15 minute main event.

With 7 minutes to go in the main and Austin still holding onto the lead, Zach started to apply pressure. That came just as the riders started to encounter lappers. As Austin tried to work his way around a lapper and hold off Zach, he came up short on a small dragon back double. This would see Forkner go down and Osbourne take the race lead. Austin would remount in 6^th, working to gain as many points as possible in the closing laps. Austin ended up 5^th on the night with Zach taking the win and an 8 point lead in the championship as the riders head to the first east/west shootout in Indianapolis next weekend.  

Davalos would not have the night he was looking for in the main event. A hard crash midway through the main would see Martin walk off the track under his own power but in obvious pain.

450 Class –

Chad Reed qualified directly into the main event finishing 7^th in his heat race. In the main, Chad tangled with another rider mid-way through the race damaging his bike and forcing him to pull out of the race after completing just 9 laps.

Daytona RCSX 2018

It was a wild weekend of events at the World Center of racing at Daytona International speedway. Over 1200 entries graced this racetrack, compiling hundreds of laps on this Ricky Carmichael designed course. The track changed only a slight bit from Pro night into the amateur event morning. The MX sports team kept the same layout as the Pro SX but did tone down the jumps to cater to the amateur MX crowd.

Sunday's qualifying went extremely well. Weather was excellent and the racers took to the course to gain their starting positions for the main events happening the following day.  There were several division races within the schedule, which meant we would have close to 15 LCQ's within Monday morning’s program, before the main events would start. Rain also decided to show its ugly face for the first half of Monday's finals making for challenging track conditions.

The Fox Am MX team performed extremely well during these trying conditions. The first winner of his main event was Garrett Marchbanks. Garrett went out in the 250 A event and killed the field. Garrett rode well during the trying conditions of the Daytona course, but pulled off the victory in the end. Our newest member of the Fox Brigade, Casey Cochran was the next champion to rise to the occasion during the challenging event. Casey went out and dominated the 85cc 9-11 class with silky smooth style. The rider from Florida knew all about the tricky conditions of the Daytona course and used it to his advantage to benefit his race, and coming in 1st place during his event.  John Grewe took the win in the 50 plus class. He rode hard all day long in all 3 classes. Excitingly enough, John was able to win his final main event in the 50 plus class, bringing home the gold for that event. John was challenged all weekend with the tough conditions of the Daytona course. These muddy and slick conditions tested all the racers out there.

Other Fox team standouts for the event were; Jesse Flock hammering his Pro Circuit Kawasaki to a 2nd place main event finish in the 250B class. Thor Powell jumped on a Factory Cobra 65cc for the first time in his career and placed 3rd over-all in the 65cc 10-11 class. Gage Linville put up a huge fight in the 125 12+ class to claim 3^rd over-all.

What an epic couple of days of racing at Daytona for these youth riders over all. Just to experience the venue and the sights of Bike week in Daytona are priceless. Congratulations to all the racers that attended the event.

Daytona, FL - Supercross Race Recap 

The 10^th round of the 2018 SX series saw the riders tackle the infield of the famed Daytona Motor Speedway. Known as the toughest and longest track of the season, the riders had their work cut out for them.

250 –

Daytona marked the 4^th round of the east coast 250 series. Coming off of two wins in a row, Fox Monster Pro Circuit Kawasaki rider, Austin Forkner was coming into Daytona just 2 points out of the series lead.

Austin started strong, posting the fastest time in both timed qualifying sessions during the day.

Heat race 2 saw Fox Monster Pro Circuit Kawasaki riders, Martin Davalos and Austin Forker lined up on the gate.  Both riders were off to good starts and finished the heat in second and third.

As the main event started, both riders got good starts coming out of the first turn near the front of the pack. Martin rode a solid race ending the night in 5^th. Austin had the speed to stay at the front of the pack finishing 3^rd for the night. The strong finish from Austin has him tied for the series points lead as they head to St. Louis next weekend.    

450 –

Chad Reed is still searching for the right bike setup and riding into shape after a preseason injury. He was able to qualify directly to the main from the heat race. Chad put in another consistent ride in the main event with a 12^th place finish.

Atlanta was the second Triple Crown event of the year. A format that forces riders to qualify directly into the main events via timed qualifying during the day. If you do not make it in on your time, you must race the last chance qualifier during the day program.

250 CLASS

The 250 class saw some amazing racing during the night. Both Fox Monster Pro Circuit Kawasaki riders, Austin Forkner and Martin Davalos running at the front in all three main events.

Main 1 – Davalos grabbed the holeshot and looked to have control of the race until a mistake saw him go down handing the lead to points leader Zach Osbourne. Osbourne would go on to win with Austin Forkner finishing 4^th.

Main 2 – Austin Forkner and Martin Davalos both got great starts in the second main, with Austin pulling the holeshot and Martin right behind him in second. Mid race saw Austin holding off a charge from Zach Osbourne for the lead with the riders coming together. Osbourne would go down while Austin retained the lead. As the race reached the closing stages Martin closed on Austin and passed for the lead on the last lap. Austin would finish second.

Main 3 – Martin Davalos came out the first turn in 3^rd with Austin buried mid pack. Martin quickly worked his way into second. A mistake in the whoops would end Martin’s bid for a win. Austin worked his way through the pack needing to pass one rider in the closing stages to clinch the overall. He was able to make the pass on the last lap and get his second win in a row and close to within 2 points of championship leader Zach Osbourne as they head to Daytona.

450 CLASS

Chad Reed continued to build on his all-time main event starts record with his 229^th main event start. Chad had consistent rides in two of the three main events on the night, finishing inside the top 10. A rough second moto had Chad ending the night in 10^th overall.

SHOP MX19

Austin led 20 pressure-filled laps to his first career Supercross victory. The 19-year-old professional was in the zone, riding under constant assault from the rest of the field. On the final lap, he was able to build a comfortable gap before the last turns and took the win in Tampa.

“I came into this season coming off a wrist injury and I’m feeling really good right now. The team has a good setup for my KX250F. Going after my first win was a challenge, but I was up front early and I tried to sprint to build a lead. I managed the pace to try and keep a good gap. I have to give it up to my team for staying behind me.”

Congrats to Chad Reed for breaking Mike Larocco’s all-time 450 SX starts record. With his at Tampa SX, Chad Reed set a new record of 228 - 228 starts spanning 16 years! You're a Legend, Reedy!

Arlington, TX - Supercross Race Recap 

250 –

Dallas was the first round of the much anticipated east coast 250 series.

The day started great with Fox Monster Pro Circuit Kawasaki rider Martin Davalos setting the faster qualifying time and Austin Forkner setting the 8^th fastest time.

Qualifying set the tone going in the night event with Austin Forkner taking the win in the first heat race and Davalos taking the win in heat 2. Both riders put in dominating performances.

As the main event started, Davalos had a great jump and looked to be in line for the holeshot heading into the first turn. As the riders started to brake for left hander, Martin was hit from behind causing a chaotic first turn crash. Davalos was thrown across the track taking several riders with him along the way. Luckily, he was not seriously hurt and will be ready to race at Tampa.

Austin Forkner was able to miss the first turn carnage and start the main near the front of the pack. A mid race collision with Zack Osbourne put Austin on the ground. Austin remounted and charged through the pack, and eventually finishing 7^th.  

450 –

Unfortunately, the Dallas Supercorss marked the first round that Ken Roczen had to sit out with a hand injury he sustained at the San Diego round last week. Ken had  surgery to repair his hand on Friday. Surgery went well with Ken already starting therapy this week. No timeline on his return just yet.

Dallas also marked Chad Reed’s 227^th main event start. A number that tied him for all time SX starts with Mike LaRocco. Chad looks to take the all-time starts lead with his 228^th start in Tampa this coming weekend.

San Diego, CA - Supercross Race Recap 

250 –

Both Fox Monster Pro-Circuit Kawasaki riders Joey Savatgy and Adam Cianciarulo debuted our military inspired San Diego 180 SE kits for the San Diego race.

Once again, Joey and Adam got off to great starts in the main event. Joey with the holeshot and Adam in third. Adam quickly worked his way past Justin Hill to get into second, with his sights set on Savatgy in the lead. Adam put some great laps together to close in on Joey and make his move for the lead in the right hander, just before the triple.  

Justin Hill was also on the move, passing Joey for seond and setting his sights on Adam in first. The two had a great battle for the lead with Justin eventually taking the win.

Adam finished second with Joey in fourth. Both riders making up points on points leader Aaron Plessinger who finshed 7^th.

The west coast guys take a break now as the east coast will kick their season off in Dallas this weekend.

450 –

Round 6 of the AMA Supercross series brought the riders to San Diego. Ken Roczen paid homage to the armed forces with a set of custom Camo Preest Flexair Racwear. Ken’s gear may have been the highlight of his night.

As the main event statrted, Ken got tangled with a couple riders going in to the first turn and went down. As he picked himself up and started to work his was through the pack he became engaged in a heated battle with Cooper Webb… Both riders not wiling to give an inch. The final move came with Ken getting more traction than he anticipated, trying to dive under Copper in a left hand turn. His bike rocketed out of his grasp and into Webb. The ensuing crash had Ken’s right arm get caught in the swingarm and rear wheel of Webb’s bike, injuring his hand and bringing his night of racing to an end.

Ken will most likely miss a couple of rounds with a hand injury. We are hoping for a speedy recovery and hope to see Ken back to racing soon.

Oakland, CA - Supercross Race Recap

250 –

Fox had another strong showing from Monster Pro-Circuit Kawasaki rider Joey Savatgy. Joey got out of the gate strong, running second for the majority of the race. The closing laps saw Joey slip back to third as Justin Hill was able to pass for second. Joey fought back to pass Justin and land in 2^nd place on the podium for the night, and retain his second position in the point standings.

Adam Cianciarulo had a tough start in the main event, going off the track in the first turn. Adam battled his way through the pack to finish in 7^th, leaving Oakland 4^th in the championship points standings.

450 –

In what turned out to be one of the best races to date, Ken Roczen came so close to capturing his first win of the season at Oakland SX.

The track turned out to be the most demanding and technical we have seen this year. Ken got off to a great start, behind his teammate Cole Seely. For a moment, it looked like it was going to be a factory Honda sweep of the top two podium spots. Seely ended up going down in one of the technical rhythm sections with Ken taking over the lead. Ken put in great ride to hold the lead for the majority of the race. As the race came to its closing stages, points leader Jason Anderson was on the move, closing to within striking distance with two laps to go.

What ensued was an epic battle to the finish. Ken and Jason swapped the lead several times in the last two laps, coming down to the last rhythm section where Ken made a small mistake that allowed Jason to pass for the win.

Ken’s great ride moved him up to 2^nd in the points standing as the series heads to San Diego.

250SX CLASS

Adam Cianciarulo #92

Continuing his impressive season, Adam Cianciarulo entered the main in the third qualifying spot. He started the main event in sixth, and from there methodically picked off riders. By the sixth lap, he found himself riding in fourth and was able to take advantage of a mistake by Joey Savatgy to secure third, where he would finish the race.

Joey Savatgy #17

Joey Savatgy started the main event with an incredible holeshot from the outside starting gate. He stayed with the front pack for several laps and was keeping pace in third, but a late mistake in the final few laps would lose him a few spots. He recovered quickly and battle back, ending the night in fourth.

Adam and Joey are sitting 3^rd and 4^th in the Championship as they head to Oakland.  

450SX CLASS

Ken Roczen #94

The 450 class saw Ken Roczen put in an excellent rebound ride after a tough night at the A2 Triple Crown event. Working his way past title contenders Jason Anderson and Marvin Musquin to finish third on the night and gain valuable championship points. Ken leaves Phoenix in 3rd place in the points, just 12 back from the leader, Jason Anderson.

Chad Reed #22

In Glendale, Chad Reed found himself in the LCQ for the second week in a row as he continues to fight through his ankle injury. The dramatic LCQ saw Reed exit the first turn in third. After losing some ground, he would fight back to second; the crowd loved it. Reed would finish 19th in the main. His results aren’t there yet, but there's no quit in #22. Chad dawned a custom set of 360 Preme racewear to celebrate Australia day.

Now that round 4 of Supercross is in the books, it’s about time we met up with some of the guys from the Pro Circuit Team. In this Tuesday’s Gear Check, you get a breakdown of the Fox equipment worn by Joey Savatgy and Adam Cianciarulo at Glendale SX....

Carey Hart's Good Ride hosted an exclusive industry party here at Fox Racing Headquarters, bringing the Moto-X and V-Twin industries together on behalf of our American troops. Good Ride's "Tanks for Troops" showcased the original work of a variety of artists who transformed Indian Motorcycle tanks into one off works of moto art. The tanks will be auctioned off with all proceeds going to Good Ride, benefitting the Infinite Hero Foundation.

The event also showcased some of Carey's Indian Motorcycle custom creations, along with customs from Carey's friends at Roland Sands Design and more.

If you would like to bid on a tank or make a donation, go to https://one.bidpal.net/goodride/welcome The Auction ends on Wednesday, January 31st.

Check out the photos from the event below. 

The Gear Check is back with another round of recommendations from our pro athletes. Today, we’re joined by Fox SX/MX rider Ken Roczen. Take a look below for a full rundown of the equipment he wore last weekend at Anaheim 2 Supercross.  

Anaheim 2 Supercross – Race Recap

Anaheim 2 marked the first round of the Triple Crown format for the 2018 Supercross series. The Triple Crown features a unique 3 main event format that would see good starts being more critical than the traditional single main event SX format. Shorter main events meant less time to come through the pack.

250 SX –

The 250 class saw both Monster Pro-Circuit Kawasaki Fox riders Joey Savatgy and Adam Cianciarulo getting great starts in all 3 main events. Savatgy would go on to win 2 of the 3 mains giving him the overall Triple Crown victory for the night. Joey’s strong performance had him leave Anaheim tied for the Championship points lead.

450 SX –

In a night where starts were critical, Ken Roczen struggled to get off the line in the first two main events. A good start and a solid ride in the third main saw Ken finish in 4^th place. Ken leaves A2 in 4^th place in the overall championship.

Still riding himself into race shape after a preseason injury, Chad Reed won the last chance qualifier during the day to get into the night program. Gutty rides in the 3 mains saw Chad come him in 14^th overall for the night.

Ken Roczen views the world through a different lens. After what would have been a career ending injury for most, Ken Roczen saw himself back on the bike and back at the gate. We worked tirelessly with Ken inside our MOTO-X LAB to create a goggle to suit his vision. The Vue goggle features unmatched field of vision, an injection molded Polycarbonate lens and our exclusive TruLock quick change lens system. Now, you can see the same possibilities as Ken Roczen.

“Getting the widest field of vision was really critical for me. We went through several rounds of samples to get it right. I am really happy with the final product.” – Ken Roczen.

“Ken really pushed the team on the Vue goggle project. His input and direct communication with our design and development team really elevated the entire process. We are very proud to see the Vue goggle come to life at A1 on Kenny.”

46^th Annual Winter Olympics

Gatorback Cycle Park

Gainesville, FL.

November 21-25^th, 2017

The 46^th Annual running of the Winter Olympics kicked off this past week at the iconic Gatorback Cycle Park. This unique event features 2 race tracks, Supercross during the first half of the week, followed by the outdoor Motocross portion of the event.  At the end of the week these scores are combined to crown the overall Olympiad.  The unpredictable Florida weather hindered the schedule this week, cancelling racing for the entire day of Thanksgiving, ultimately causing the promotors to cut LCQ’s out of the event, making for a cut-throat make-it-or-break-it sense of urgency each moto.

In the A/Pro classes, Garrett Marchbanks won the 450 Pro Sport in both SX and MX, this also being his debut race in the A class!  Brazilian, Enzo Lopes, was also on fire in the first half of the week with a 250 Pro Sport win in SX, yet Enzo having a bad get-off ended up unable to finish out the week.  In the B class and still new to the 250f transition, Stilez Robertson was killing it with a 250 B Limited SX championship, along with a handful of podium finishes.  Oklahoma’s Jesse Flock was also a contender in the B class all week with a 450 B Limited SX title.  JJ Jarvis was riding great in the Girls and Women’s classes as well, taking the gold in SX and MX in the Girls Sr. class, and just missing the top spot in the Women’s 14+ with 2 second place finishes, though she was chipping away at the leader each lap, but ran out of time during the reduced number of laps due to the rain delay during the week.  In the SuperMini class, Jeremy Ryan claimed the SuperMini 2 (13-16) class title in the MX half of the week.  John Grewe took a permanent residency on the podium this week!  John won 10 of his 12 motos, wrapping up all 4 Overall Olympiad titles in the 35+, 40+, 45+, and 50+.  At the end of the week John was given the Vet Masters Award, with the only blemish on his record was having the 35+ SX gold medal taken by RedDog Timmy Ferry.

Congratulations to all finishers and champions!  Below is a list of Fox team top 3 results, along with a link to full event results.

2017 Loretta Lynn’s Amateur Motocross National

Hurricane Mills, Tennessee

This year marked the 36^th annual running of the AMA Loretta Lynn’s Amateur Motocross National in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee. The prestigious land of Loretta Lynn’s Ranch makes for an incredible backdrop for this week-long event. Close to 1300 racers were able to qualify to do battle for the 32 national championships awarded at the ranch.

The Fox Am team had an incredible week’s worth of racing claiming 5 Amateur National Championships and 12 more podium positions. Also, on site was the current and 3 time WMX Champion Kylie Fasnacht who took home the victory with a 1-1 score in the final round of the WMX’s series. 

The 2 highest scoring athletes on the Team this week were Garrett Marchbanks with double moto victories in the 250 B class and the Schoolboy 2 (12-17) class and, Ty Masterpool with double moto victories in the most prestigious races within mini bike racing the SuperMini 1 (12-15) SuperMini 2 (13-16) classes. Both riders outperformed all the other respected racers within the Amateur and Youth classes thus earning them The Amateur (Garrett Marchbanks) and Youth (Ty Masterpool) rider of the year awards from the AMA. Youth Rider of the year is based on his or her performances in the Youth classes at the Loretta Lynn’s National. The Amateur Rider of the year is based on the non A class rider that is predicted to have the most success as an A rider in his or her following year. 

Garrett struggled with starts in his first couple of motos having to work his way through the pack to win. Shortly thereafter, Garrett would figure out the fast-right hand turn of Loretta Lynn’s and started to hole-shot and walk away with the win. Garrett went on to win 5 of his 6 motos for the week in very impressive fashion. Ty Masterpool on the other hand made life easy on himself in the early motos posting 3 podiums right off the bat. Ty struggled with horrible starts later in the week and was forced to claw his way back up from practically dead last to win each title. It was full on racing drama all the way to the end. Congratulations to Ty and his privateer victory winning on a TM branded motorcycle. A brand which has never won an AMA AM Motocross National event. The last history making moment is the three Masterpool boys are the only trio of brothers to have all won Championships at the ranch. Ty made that history making moment come true this past week for the family.

There was a ton of other great moto action amongst the team. John Grewe was able to capture another championship at the Ranch in the 50+ class and second in the 40+ class. As the series finished up at LL with the final motos of the WMX series, Kylie Fasnacht was able to bring home another event win to top off her 2017 Championship season in the WMX class. Ethan Mann was able to hammer down his final motos of the week in winning fashion claiming two 2nd over-all finishes in the Schoolboy 1 (12-16) and 125cc (12-16) classes. Jordan Jarvis had a great week of racing coming back from a major bike issue in the first moto of the womens (12+) amateur class to go DNF-1-1 and then 3-3-3 for 2^nd over-all in the girls (11-16) class. Enzo Lopes (Brazil) had an epic week early on running down and catching the Horizon award winner Justin Cooper during a couple of motos. Enzo showed everyone what he was capable of under the pressures of the AM Nationals. Lastly, the father and son duo of Don and Preston Boespflug were on site to go racing. Watching this father and son work together to discuss lines on the track and moto finishes was a very cool story to follow throughout the week. Preston would end up 3^rd OA in the 65cc (7-11) class and Dad (Don) would end up coming home 4^th in the 50+ class.

MX18 | DREAM ON

Every year we have to shoot photos and video of our top riders for our upcoming season. Due to their heavy schedules, we usually end up shooting each rider by themselves. This year we assembled all of our available riders in one location at one time. Having this many bad dudes in one spot usually only happens on race day. This time: no opening ceremonies, no racing, no motos, no training; it was time to have fun riding dirt bikes. Shooting photos for an entire catalog and a full video in one day is a tremendous task; but in between all of the chaos, the crew would stop and reflect on the how special it was to have this roster in such an amazing spot. It was a surreal day for everyone involved. It’s only fitting the place is called Dreamland.

The 2017 MXGP series made a visit to the Crossdromo Internacional de Águeda facility in Portugal over the weekend for Round 12 of the circuit. Visiting Agueda for the first time since the last GP held there in 2014, the riders were greeted with the classic hardpack racing surface although the track layout has been changed slightly.

Saturday brought the MXGP Qualifying Race and HRC’s Tim Gajser looked to get the weekend off to a strong start after struggling through injury in his return to racing in Ottobiano last week. After a strong start he was able to push through the pain to 5^th place to set himself up nicely for Sunday’s races. Gautier Paulin finished 10^th and Evgeny Bobryshev salvaged a 15^th as he continues to ride through injury as well.

The first MXGP moto on Sunday brought a challenging task for all of our athletes as Gajser was 8^th, Bobryshev 11^th and Paulin 12^th. Gajser looked to turn things around in the second moto when he flew out of the starting gate and grabbed the holeshot, leading the field out onto the circuit. Some mistakes early on in the race cost him a few positions and he slipped back to eventually finish 6^th for 6^th Overall on the weekend. We can see that the Slovenian is beginning to get back to his old form and should be standing atop the podium in the very near future. Bobryshev was 9^th, giving him 10^th Overall on the weekend and Paulin was 11^th which gave him 12^th Overall.

HRC MX2 fill-in rider Anthony Rodriguez scored the first top 10 finish of his MXGP career with an 8^th Overall for the weekend.

The series now takes a two-week break and resumes with the MXGP of Czech Republic on 23^rd of July.

2017 Mammoth Motocross

June 16-25^th, 2017

Mammoth Lakes, California

Mammoth Motocross kicked off this past week for the 50^th time in history, continuing the tradition and still the longest running motocross event in the United States.  Sitting at roughly 8,000 feet of elevation, and Mammoth being at the base of their premier ski resort, an overactive winter and high snow levels left parts of the track under water just weeks before the event.  After running miles pipe and pumping literally millions of gallons of water, the crew pulled it off and the event went off without a hitch.

Garrett Marchbanks was on fire this week, claiming all 3 of his classes in 250 B, SchoolBoy 2, and 250 B/C Open. Ciaran Naran in that class group as well, had consistent week with all 3 heat races on the podium.  Enzo Lopes was running fast in the A class, taking 2^nd place in both the 250 Pro and Open Pro.  Tristan Miller also came out to Mammoth with his beast of a 500cc machine to dominate the FMF 2-Stroke race.  North Carolina’s Jordan Jarvis made the drive all the way to California, not only to win the Women’s 12+ championship, but also she placed in the top 10 in the SchoolBoy 1 and 125cc b/c boys classes!  The SuperMini classes were heated to say the least, Stilez Robertson collected some big bear trophies winning final motos in SuperMini 1 & 2 during the 2 mini race days!  NorCal’s Jeremy Ryan also had a good week in SuperMini classes consistently on the podium, while Levi Kitchen from the NorthWest was battling with some sickness issues still managed to stay within the top 5 in SuperMini 1.65cc pilot, Enzo Temmerman, won day 2 of the 65cc (7-9), along with Preston Boespflug in the older 65cc (10-11) classes having a successful week on the podium.

Congratulations to all who came out to compete at this historic 50^th annual event!   Below is a list of top 3 performances by the Fox team, and link to full race results.

2017 Junior Moto-X

Guthrie, Oklahoma

May 10-13^th, 2017

The 2^nd Annual Junior Moto-X returned to Lazy-E Arena in Guthrie Oklahoma this past week.  Lazy-E Arena is the largest equestrian arena in North America and a first class facility.  The Junior Moto-X is a youth focused event limited to competitors 18 years of age and under, and bike size 250cc and below.

This unique track is a hybrid of supercross and motocross style, specifically designed with rider safety in mind.  Along with the diverse features and multiple option lanes, this arena consists of some of the best around.

On the big bike portion of the event, Oklahoma native Jesse Flock put in a hard charge in the 125cc two stroke class championship.  Ethan Mann rounded out the podium in the 250 B Limited class with a third place, while North Carolina’s JJ Jarvis won the Women’s 14-18 title.

Ty Masterpool, the youngest of the Masterpool family, along with Fox teammate Jeremy Ryan were both on fire!  Ty took the championship in the SuperMini 2, and Jeremy earned a silver medal finish in the SuperMini 1 class.  Ty and Jeremy also finished 1^st and 2^nd in the Jesse Cup race, which is a combination of the top 8 fastest racers in both SuperMini 1 and SuperMini 2 classes.  The “Jesse Cup” is a race dedicated to the spirit and memory of Jesse Masterpool.  Jesse was a Fox team athlete we lost to a tragic motocross accident in 2010.  Jesse embodied the passion and dedication for the sport of motocross that we all remember him for today.  Jesse’s legacy lives on through our racing community and families.

Congratulations to all in attendance of this great event.  Below is a list of top 3 finishes by Fox team athletes.

Sam Boyd Stadium – Las Vegas, NV

Round 17 of 17


May 6, 2017

Congratulations to Fox Racing athlete Ryan Dungey who won the 450 SX Supercross Title on Saturday night in Las Vegas. Dungey survived a wild 450 SX main event to finish fourth on the night and clinch his third straight title, and the fourth of his career. Dungey entered the night with a nine-point edge over Eli Tomac in the standings. The final saw an incredible race with several lead changes, where twice he collided with Eli Tomac, including one during a tense final lap, but Dungey still finished high enough Saturday at Sam Boyd Stadium to get it done.

Ryan Dungey had this to say following his win, “This season was one of the toughest of my career, so it means that much more. We went through a lot of tough times, battles and adversity. I can’t thank everyone enough for sticking behind me.”

Congrats Ryan!

Babes In The Dirt 3 - Hungry Valley OHV - Gorman, CA

“Coming from someone who rides BMX and Harley's and whose always wanted to see what  dirtbikes were about, I definitely had SO much fun! The Husqvarna crew was amazingly patient with me and everyone else who was new to the game. They made sure we were safe, were so helpful and very nice. I cant thank Fox enough for bringing me out to my first ever Babes in the Dirt. I'm proud to be an ambassador for them. It's so rewarding and inspiring. Seeing all the Fox marketing women holding it down all weekend at the booth with free giveaways for every single lady there and hosting gear demos throughout the weekend for all of us to try on our rides made everyone feel protected and the vibes were great. Riding was way more fun than I could have ever imagined. I made new friends, saw old ones, and now I’m excited to get a dirtbike of my own… as soon as possible, haha! I’m already looking forward to next year!” – Nina Buitrago, Professional BMX rider

We want to send out a big THANK YOU to Anya & Ashmore of Babes Ride Out for putting on such an amazing event and bringing so many women together. All for the love of moto!

2017 California Classic

April 6-9^th, 2017

Pala, CA.

Located in North San Diego County, the California Classic kicked off this past week in Pala, California.  Springtime sunny California weather held out for the week making for great conditions.  The Cal Classic runs on a 3 moto format, not only rewarding the fastest, but it takes consistency to put together a championship at this event. 

Garrett Marchbanks was clearly on a mission this past week, winning 4 of 4 championships in all his classes!  Garrett cleaned up the 250 B, 450 B, SchoolBoy 2, and Open B/C classes on his Team Green ride.  In the A/Pro classes, Michael Mosiman was on a blistering fast pace, though a couple miscues left him out of contention for a good overall finish, even though the speed was crystal clear as he leads into his professional debut at Hangtown in May.  Eldest of the Mosiman brothers was on hand as well to claim a podium spot in the Open Pro class, along with Brazilian Enzo Lopes consistently finishing within the top 5.  Tristan Miller was aboard his 500cc beast for the FMF 2-Stroke Challenge.  Headed into the last moto with 1-1 scores, Tristan had a small mistake in a corner and handed over the gold for silver, taking home 2^nd place overall.  In the SuperMini classes, Jeremy Ryan and Levi Kitchen were both chasing down podium positions over the 4 days of racing.  65cc pilot Enzo Temmerman won 3 motos in the 65cc (7-9) mod and limited classes, ultimately earning himself 2 second place trophies in each class.  In the older 65cc (10-11) classes, Preston Boespflug traveled from the Pacific Northwest to battle for 4 podium finishes spread between his three 65cc classes he entered.  The Cal Classic also marks round 3 of the Women’s Pro Motocross series, where 2 time champion Kylie Fasnacht was on the gas winning both motos.  Kylie is leading the WMX Series points as she pushed forward with her sights set on a 3^rd straight WMX championship. 

Congratulations to all competitors, and a big thanks to the 2X Promotions crew for a great event, and thanks to the Pala Tribe for the use of their land.

2017 Daytona Ricky Carmichael Amateur Supercross

March 12-13^th, 2017

Daytona Beach, Florida

The 8^th annual Daytona Ricky Carmichael Amateur Supercross went in full swing on Sunday morning, immediately following the pro race on Saturday night.  35 classes of athletes battled for 2 days in the iconic Daytona International Speedway, a privilege in its own to be racing at such a facility.  On Sunday, some mid-morning rain threw a curveball to a number of classes leading into the day.  On the other hand, Monday’s weather prediction had everyone scrambling to prepare for bad weather, yet not a drop fell during the race day making for perfect race conditions.  Shortly after the event wrapped up and the last moto was off the track, the sky opened up and poured.  Couldn’t have been timed any better.

Making his way from California, Stilez Robertson collected both championships in the SuperMini 1 and SuperMini 2 classes!  Stilez’ Team Green teammate, Garrett Marchbanks, was also charging in the B class, coming home with the 250 B title, and silver medal in the 450 B.  In the SchoolBoy 2 class, Marco Cannella made the journey down from Canada to claim second place.  Dirco van der Westhuizen, hailing from South Africa and living recently full time in the states, was able to take the College (16-24) class championship.  Ethan Mann was on fire aboard his 125cc machine, claiming a 2^nd place in SchoolBoy 1, and a 1^st place victory in the 125cc (12+) class,  with Hardy Munoz from Chile rounding out the podium in 3^rd in that class.  In the 65cc (10-11) class, Preston Boespflug came all the way to Florida from the Pacific Northwest to battle out for an impressive 2^nd place finish.  Jordan “JJ” Jarvis was looking fast as always!  Taking a commanding 1^st place in the Women’s Am (12+) championship.  In the WMX Women’s Pro Series, Daytona marks the 1^st round of the 2017 schedule.  2016 defending WMX champion Kylie Fasnacht got a solid start and claimed 2^nd place to gain some valuable point for the 8 round series.  In the Vet class, Michigan’s John Grewe had a TRIPLE championship clean sweep of 40+, 45+, and 50+ Masters! Congratulations to all who came to compete at this great event.  Below is a list of Fox team champions, and top 3 finishers.

Fox kicked off the 2017 season opener with an action packed Saturday!

Our HQ retail store opened up their doors to the public with free giveaways, raffles, in-store promotions, a live DJ and the Culver City Fire Department on the BBQ.

Shift hosted a Pre-party across the street from the stadium at Golden Road Brewery with beer specials, one of a kind giveaways and gourmet pizzas for their guests.  

In true Anaheim 1 tradition, the Fox bus posted up in the parking lot at Angel Stadium for our annual Chill N Grill before the race. With brats and dogs on the grill and plenty of drinks to go around, our employees, industry friends and guests had a great time.

What better way to end the night, than with Ken Roczen and Ryan Dungey going 1 & 2?! Cheers to the 2017 Supercross Season!

 From going to the races with his dad, to being the father of his own moto family; life has come full circle for Chad Reed. "Chad time" has now transitioned to "family time.” We are proud to have the entire Reed family in Fox Racing, and support Chad as he continues to silence his critics.

From sun up till sun down, newly crowned 450 Motocross Champion Ken Roczen likes to have fun on his dirt bike. No matter if it’s a supercross test track or the rolling hills behind it, Kenny makes the most out of everyday.

Ken Roczen Seals the 2016 450 Pro Motocross Championship with Another 1-1 Performance at Budds Creek

Budds Creek National Race Report – Budds Creek MX, Mechanicsville, MD

August 20, 2016

Ken Roczen’s dream summer reached its pinnacle this weekend at Round 11 of the AMA Pro Motocross series at Budds Creek in Mechanicsville, Maryland. The #94 earned his second premier class title with yet another commanding 1-1 finish over the rest of the field. It has been a series to remember for Roczen as he has now earned a total of 8 Overall victories and has his eyes set on a 9^th with the series moving into the final round at Ironman MX in Crawfordsville, Indiana. Rookie Pro Circuit star Austin Forkner also had a big day at Budds Creek as he solidified his 3^rd consecutive podium finish with 5-2 moto finishes.

Roczen’s big day began with the top qualifying time in the 450 Class and the German was looking primed and ready to stand on the top step of the podium. He nailed a textbook holeshot in the opening 450 Moto and controlled the race from the front for the entire 17 laps. He made it look easy as he took the checkers with a 16 second gap over second place Marvin Musquin. He just barely missed double holeshots in the second moto but was able to quickly move into the lead early on the opening lap. He showed his dominance again throughout the moto as he put another giant gap on the field and took the win to seal his fate as the 2016 450 Pro Motocross champion. The champagne showers immediately followed the victory and Roczen celebrated alongside the GOAT Ricky Carmichael and the entire RCH Team.

Austin Forkner continued his strong push to the end of the 2016 Pro Motocross series and was flying again at Budds Creek. He took a 5^th place finish in the opening 250 Moto and looked to better his score in the second Moto to earn another podium finish. The second moto began with a 3^rd place start for Forkner, and he moved into the lead by Lap 5. The Rookie led for 4-5 laps before moving back to 2^nd where he eventually finished. His 5-2 scores were good for 3^rd Overall and another trip to the podium celebrations. He’ll look to put a cap on his great freshmen campaign at the final round of the series next weekend.

It was a series high for Adam Cianciarulo at Budds Creek and he showed some amazing speed throughout the day. He pulled the holeshot in the opening 250 Moto and led a great portion of the race before finishing up a season best 2^nd Place. He backed it up in 250 Moto #2 with another great holeshot and a solid 5^th Place finish. It was great to see AC back up front consistently and he’ll be looking for his first Overall podium finish of the season next week in Indiana.

Joey Savatgy had another roller coaster of a day at Budds Creek that began on a high note with a 3^rd Place finish in 250 Moto #1. Unfortunately he ran into some troubles in the second moto and only was able to complete 12 Laps for a 34^th place finish. He was still in the top 10 with a 9^th Overall on 3-34 moto scores. Chris Alldredge returned to racing for the first time this summer and finished up a solid 10^th Overall with 12-11 finishes. Arnaud Tonus was just behind Alldredge in the Overall standings, going 7-17 for 11^th Overall.

We’ll finish off the 2016 AMA Pro Motocross Series next weekend at Ironman MX just outside of Indianapolis, Indiana and are looking forward to all of the Fox Athletes having a strong final round. See you there!

Fox Racing is proud to release Chapter One of We Race Together, an in-depth look into the lives and stories behind the team riders of Pro Circuit Monster Energy Kawasaki. In this chapter we sit down with 250 west coast championship contender Joey Savatgy and his father Joe to get a look inside the trials and tribulations the Savatgy family has made on their journey.

     Fox Europe is stoked to share its latest video project #NEVERGIVEUP featuring the Honda MXGP rider, Tim Gajser; the guy who never stops believing, never stops trying and never gives up. Tim poured his heart out talking about his true passion of life - Motocross and what makes it one of the toughest sports in the world. Teamed up with Sebastien Zanella from Desillusion Mag for the project, Zanella brought onboard his vast experience of shooting documentaries for a number of different sports and his artistic expertise added a distinct flavour to the project.
     Today is a very special day (the 24th of March) for the young Slovenian and his family. It brings with it a lot of memories and emotions to the Gajser Family and for that very reason, No. 243, that Tim has worn through out his MX career, means much more than just a number. At age of 19 yrs only, Tim Gajser made his debut in the premiere class of Motocross World Championship earlier this year in Qatar. Though still a rookie, he dazzled everyone by clean sweeping the event. With the first GP of Europe just around the corner, Tim is focused to gain his second win of the season and take charge of the points lead.

Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Ryan Dungey became only the 2nd rookie to ever win the AMA 450cc Motocross Championship (Ricky Carmichael was the first). Speaking of firsts, Ryan became the only rookie to win both the Supercross & Motocross Championships in the premier class in the same year as well.

With two rounds still remaining, Dungey is tied for most wins in a season (9) with RC and looks to break that record at the next round at Steel City in Delmont, PA this upcoming weekend. Ryan has won nine-straight overalls and an incredible 10 motos in a row. In fact he's gone 1-1 at every race since Red Bud on 7/4/10.

Congratulations on an amazing season Ryan from everyone at Fox!
