Track was gnarly!

Great event as always, fantastic racing all 3 motos

Big Ken did the business just there, interesting that a lot of his countrymen on here would have preferred strijbos on the team. Personally I'm on Ken's train, he's a big event player and did his country proud!

going to be a long winter waiting for motocross to kick off next spring!

Amazing how little old Belgium is such a powerhouse in motocross, particularly at the MXDN.

Congrats to them. Great race.

Proud to be Belgian.

Big Ken really delivered.

Hope Desalle will be alright though.


Picture tells it all, we finally took one home again, after last year's disappointment in Lommel.

I'm so happy for them. They've had great teams that came so close the past 9 years since 04. They deserved this one for sure. Congratulations to Team Belgium.

I concur......Congrats to Belgium! Dudes put in a solid 5 motos and deserved that big ol' shiny trophy today!

Also huge props to AC222 today as well........what a friggin' day that guy had! And Kroc for winning his 4th consecutive year in his class!

I'm proud of our boys even if we didn't win. Little bummed with RD and how hard he pushed ( or lack of ).......but it is what it is and the best team won.

Congrats Team Belgium!

Allot of great rides made it well deserved and very entertaining!

While I would've enjoyed another USA win, this was one of the most competitive and memorable races I've seen.

Germany, Italy, Australia, France and US should be proud, there's only one first place, and in a world class event you're not gonna get it every time. It was truly an awesome event.

As far as ALL the other bullshit, ahh fuckit

Proud to be Belgian..... i had nothing to do with the win though :D

You guys should've seen what was on our national television station when Belgium won the nations race. The idiots aired the world championships beach soccer in Tahiti. Morons.....

Pumped for Belgium and especially for van Horbeek who has only missed one MXoN since 2006. They did what they needed to do.

Holy crap, just watched the race, have been hiding from the net, to avoid any spoilers. Amazing win by Belgium, happy for Ken in particular, seems people didn't believe in him, but after that two stroke ride in the Belgium nats, I figured he found his mojo! LOL!

Typical Belgium. We win a few soccer matches and everyone is a big fan of the national team again. the female hockey team wins a few matches and everyone is huge fan of them. Seriously, grass hocky?? No one even knew we had a national team before they got a weee bit succesfull... But hey Belgium for the win, right? We have to stick up for our nations team! (but only if we win, otherwise we don't know them)

Belgium wins the most prestigious race of the sport. Has a legendary status in that sport plus it is basically the only sport we are fucking good at on a world level of competition. No coverage what so ever! Laughing

Belgians are fucking idiots. They have no pride for their country, at all.

And here I am thinking that a much larger percentage of the population there knows moto than here in the states.Laughing Sounds like MX is circling the drain worldwide.

Congrats to Belgium though!

Always a threat to win.

And....

Two thumbs up.

Belgium is the reason "Europe" always has a chance to win at the MXdN. Pound for pound inch for inch they are the greatest motocross nation no doubt! How a country that small is always a threat to win almost defies logic.
