LOS
ANGELES, CA - FUEL TV, Fox Sports Media Group’s dynamic entertainment
and sports network for young males, announces the return of the
exciting motocross docu-series “The Moto: Inside The Outdoors,” premiering on Thursday, March 3, at 10:00PM ET/PT.
The eight-part series, produced and directed by the award-winning
motocross filmmaker Troy Adamitis, provides an intimate, inside look at
one of the most grueling professional race series in the world; the
Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship.
 
Shot
in high definition, season two of “The Moto: Inside The Outdoors”
reveals the behind-the-scenes lives of the top motocross professionals in
the world. Riders such as 2010 Champion Ryan Dungey, 2009 Champ Chad
Reed, rivals Mike Alessi and Josh Grant, and seasoned pro Andrew Short,
come together to compete on the grueling 12-stop race circuit. Going
beyond the track, “The Moto” 
also
highlights the trainers, mechanics, families and friends who serve as
the foundation for success. Rain or shine, “The Moto” follows their
nomadic journeys on the road, the track and in the pits to uncover the
lives of people who lay it all on the line; hostile rivalries, brutal
tracks, unforgiving weather and a constant goal of mastering their
body’s limitations. In this world, everything comes second to the moto.
 
"The
first season was big with our audience," says CJ Olivares, FUEL TV GM.
"It brought a distinctive voice that no one other than Troy and his
team could deliver. This season, they were embedded in the tour all
season, and with their skills as storytellers and amazing
cinematographers, they take us deeper into the emotional stories of
guys who risk everything for the love of racing. When you watch the
show, it's hard not to get sucked into this intriguing world."
 
“This
show is such a great opportunity to showcase the motocross lifestyle,”
says “The Moto: Inside The Outdoors” Director Troy Adamitis. “We have a
tremendous amount of respect for the industry, the riders, and their
families. FUEL TV has the perfect platform for this kind of show and
we’re thrilled to be working together for a second season.”
 
Adamitis
has directed more than 20 motocross films including the famed
documentary series “The Great Outdoors.” He’s considered one of the
leading filmmakers in the sport of motocross and is known for amazing
cinematography, authenticity, and compelling story-telling techniques
that transcend typical sport films. He has created motocross cult
classics such as “Wrathchild,” “Chapter 1” and “ChainSmoke.”
