Motocross or MX is actually an abbreviation of “Motorcycle Cross Country”. Modern MX in the sense of the word really only evolved to having jumps because they were “built” into the natural terrain courses which in turn allowed to test and push engineering into things related to suspension travel and performance. But the reality is, it’s a motorcycle navigating cross country terrain. If you’re more interested in the history of how and why MX tracks are the way they are, just look at the 60’s-70’s Grand Prix style tracks. They were/are beautiful rough high speed tilled grass tracks.
Absolutely love these between the arrows videos keep em coming!
The transition from race to mid race rain was so good. (afternoon class)
Every WXC post race interview: “the lappers were horrible”
Move them to the afternoon
It's a constant issue while racing on tight trails in the woods.
What would you prefer them to say?
What are the chances GNCC has to go to bike only weekends if it keeps growing?
Good coverage
Cool watching woods riders for a change. Odd seeing racing with no jumps though

Great race! Need to lose the Music.
Would rather no music. But sick coverage
Can I just say that GNCC women are more hardcore than most pro, male SX racers? Why do I even watch that stuff...
