Hey guys. I was lucky enough to be able to go to Maggiora for the GP last week. I took some photos and footage of the event that you might like to see.
Yamaha had this Dodge van out for their 60th anniversary celebrations.
Van Horebeek and Febvre had two holeshot devices, which I thought was cool.
A few of the teams had a truck and trailer set up, as opposed to an articulated lorry, which I hadn't seen before. My dad is big into this sort of stuff and was well impressed!
The HRC bikes were looking sexy as always.
Marco Maddi was riding in the EMX300 class. In true Italian style, half the awning was for the bikes, and they were selling their own brand of olive oil out of the other half.
This guy and his friend made an appearance in my video above.
The track was in a state early on in the day on Sunday, but it came round a bit towards the afternoon. This corner had a nasty rut with a vicious hook in it for the first MXGP race.
These guys were the life of the party in the camping area. That's some manner of straight 4 in a frame, with a huge cone on the exhaust. They were throwing beer in the cone which would light on fire and throw flames out. They were very... enthusiastic... They had this going until well in to the AM on Friday night.

My dad lives about 30 minutes from Maggiora, which is why I went to that one, but I'm toying with the idea of going to Mantova now, because Maggiora was so good! And the weather in northern Italy would be a bit more predictable in August than June!
Thanks Crush!
