It’s got nothing to do with what you personally ride, nobody cares about that.
Your salary relies entirely on the public buying bikes and gear, watching the races and coming here to discuss it.
If the bikes and gear don’t sell, and nobody’s here talking about it, where’s your salary coming from?
2.) It was the first round of the 2018 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship and there was lots to do for a lot of us, including an Arts & Crafts initiative where we spent the lunch break thinking about ways to not just make but market tinfoil hats.
3.) Each promoter was supposed to run their own All-Star race, and with it being Dirt Diggers' 50th Hangtown, they were all pretty slammed and some things got away from them, including a list of riders/numbers for the announcers.
4.) MX Sports will take over managing the individual events, as last year we were fortunate enough to have Joey Lancaster of the OG Dream Race helping out and solely responsible for the events. (He would have come in handy here, maybe next year we can actually budget for him to come and help out).
5.) Guy B. asked us all not to post any results or show anything to build traffic on Vital MX.
6.) The TV crew works from about 7 a.m. until past 6 p.m. and the All Star race fell on their short lunch break. The overtime would have cost about five times the purse of an unsponsored exhibition race.
7.) I made #5 up (it was actually Michael Lindsey, not Guy
8.) It was hard to hear the PA in the press tent and several news media outlets missed the start (yes, I mean you Simon Cudby).
9.) The fact that there are now four pages on this forum about this poorly planned MEDIA BLACKOUT shows me that #5 should let #7 run this site when he's not doing #2....
10.) Vital needs a BLACKOUTS MATTER T-shirt to sell with those custom tinfoil hats.

Octopus X
You’re obviously not one of them, but hey.. nobodys perfect right..lol
Everyone around us was enjoying the 125s. Hopefully it can continue and expand.
Congrats to Aiden!
Could just call it the 125 mystery race, sort of like Miller blind date concerts.
It makes sense why it wasn't covered. Now the mystery is solved and we can go on with our motolives.
Pit Row
Just glad to see and read about this wonderful sport we enjoy.
Carry on.
Even got a little hiking in as we checked out all parts of the track and vendor row. Our phones logged 5 miles...probably more than even the 125 race.
That’s ok though! We’re glad we went. On the way home we talked about Tomac, Osbourne, Martin, Roczen, Forkner etc. and, yes, the 125’s. Going to be another great year for the Nationals.
Any-hoo...
This is just like the Stones tour in 1981...Tattoo You...everyone raved about the opening act, George Thorogood, & that's what the people wanted to see more of...but...the damn octopus wouldn't allow it to happen. That octopus was Bill Graham. So, at-least Octopus X is in good company.
Fight the Power.

Those guys were hauling ass, and having fun and so were the fans.
