| HOT AND COLD IN HELSINKI | 04.02.2012 |
|---|
It was minus 13 outside, but the action was hot in the hall as supercross hit Finland last night with the opening night of the Helsinki Supercross. Shock winner was Jurgen Wybo on the Rabbit Racing Kawasaki though the Belgian was a class act on the track rendered rutted and tatty as the frozen earth thawed out; Jurgen won his heat, only lost out late on in his semi to Kimi Raikkonen runner Dean Ferris, and ran down Florent Richier in the Main even before the Frenchman made a late error in the difficult going. Wybo's teammate Jack Brunell was consistent all night to place fourth behind Fabien Izoird. The can catch a taste of the action, with pretty much the same cast which will race at Herning in Denmark next weekend by clicking http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKobvtv1N8c&feature

|---|
Jake Nicholls, preparing for the upcoming 2012 season with buddy Ben Townley in Kiwiland, has sent us a cool tape from his GoPro around BT's personal practice track. "Check the big step ups !!!" advises Jake. And C Jake avoid the stake across his path when he decides to get smart and try a few alternative lines ;-) Check it all out by clicking http://youtu.be/on7mOtsqEjc

| DEANO SLAYS 'EM | 15.01.2012 |
|---|
U can already watch Deano slay 'em in the Phoenix Lites. Already on the opening lap the Scot switches tight in turn three to pass both Rattray and Musquin in one sweet move. And kudos to Zach Osborne; he was all over Tyla through the early laps. Watch it @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w13UKfIBh4Q

| THE NAMUR LEGEND LIVES ON | 23.12.2011 |
|---|
Grown men's eyes have been seen to water when mention is made of the Citadel in the Wallonian capital of Namur. For 60 years the ancient fort overlooking the Sambre and the Meuse was THE home of motocross, but since the final GP there in 2007 the track has laid dormant to the magic sound of motocross bikes. However it has not been totally devoid of sport and recently a round of the UCI Cyclo Cross World Cup was held there. Winner was Stefan Everts' buddy Sven Nys of the Landbouwkrediet team, and you can see the action by clicking http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJdFHTT4C1E&feature=youtu.be The first race u c is for the girls and is a real laugh, but then u get to the real action. Enjoy !

| PRO CIRCUIT ENGINE PORTING | 16.12.2011 |
|---|
You don't win 28 AMA championships and over 200 race wins by riding a stock motorcycle with over the counter parts. You win it by customizing your bike to get the best performance possible. The professional technicians at Pro Circuit have built a winning dynasty through innovation and dedication. Riders of most 2 and 4 stroke engines can experience increased performance with Pro Circuits race tested engine head modification. Check out this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BfVF0wPli4&feature=youtu.be for a real insight into just a fraction of the work which goes into all of those titles.

| DUTCH "SUPERCROSS" | 10.12.2011 |
|---|
Whilst America reserves the term "Supercross" for the elite events which count for the 17 round AMA series and the Monster Million, just about anything where bikes race over dirt with a roof over their head seems to carry the title in Europe. To get some idea of what the Dutch get excited about, take a look at Michel Benjamins' raw tape of close-up action with a static trackside camera from last night's race at Venray by clicking http://vimeo.com/33441022
U can even let Michel know which are your favourite bits before he edits the material for placement on http://www.mxactive.com/ My own favourite LOL bits are the clips with the camera in the berm and u can c the massive pillars holding up the roof in the background. Scary :-(

ROLE SWITCH
Change of scenery for Ken Roczen and Jeffrey Herlings
| 02.12.2011 |
|---|
Ken Roczen jetted back into Europe yesterday ... and Jeffrey Herlings is currently in Socal with KTM USA. Don't worry, KTM plans for 2012 have not been turned on their head, and by mid-December both 17 year olds will be back in their own playgrounds as the German teenager goes for gold in the States and the Dutch youngster chases the MX2 world title.

NO CHANCE
Reed and Barcia top Genova as Soubs fractures his pelvis
| 20.11.2011 |
|---|
The Europeans never stood a chance as Chad Reed and Justin Barcia swept into town for the Genova Superbowl on Saturday; solid whoops on both sides of the arena gave the AMA regulars an overwhelming advantage, and their duel in the second Main took them more than half a minute clear of the battle for third between Cyrille Coulon and Maxxis champion Arnaud Tonus, the only "locals" to avoid being lapped, and even they only salvaged their pride by a matter of feet ! Fractured pelvis for Euro champ Cedric Soubeyras !
