Hey fellow MX fans,

With the Motocross of Nations just around the corner, we’ve got our boys Eli Tomac, Cooper Webb, and Aaron Plessinger gearing up to represent the red, white, and blue on the global stage! These riders have given it their all throughout the season, and now they’ll take on the world’s best in a race that’s more than just about skill—it’s about pride, unity, and flying the American flag high.

As an American MX fan, how do you feel when these riders go out there and represent the USA? There’s something special about seeing our nation’s best take on riders from all over the globe, and the pride that comes with hearing our anthem at the top of the podium is unmatched.

For those of you who are active service members, veterans, or first responders, I’d love to hear from you too! What does the flag mean to you as a patriot and while serving your community and country? How does that feeling translate when you see our riders carrying that same flag on the world stage?

Let’s get behind our team and show them massive support. Who’s with me in cheering these guys on as they battle for America at the Motocross of Nations. I’m sure they’ll appreciate what it means to each and every one of us!

#TeamUSA #MXoN #PrideandPower

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences, and if you’ve got a negative opinion, keep moving on, this one is not for you.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I'm excited about this team!   Win lose or draw, they want to be there and will leave it on the track,

Tomac on the Honda was something else, thanks for sharing this, I don't often go back and watch old races but I will be looking for races when Eli was on Honda. My jaw was on the floor when he was railing those berms.

Hangtown, Glen Helen and Lakewood - right up until the crash in moto 2 - were all absolute master classes in how to ride outdoor motocross by Eli.

His rides on the Geico Honda 250 were great too. He rarely holeshot that year.

It was a long time ago, and he still became one of the best ever...  But that short stint, before his injury was the best/fastest I have ever seen in outdoor MX.

To the OP, and at the risk of annoying our foreign brothers, representing the flag is instilled in our DNA. I know that other countries take pride in their flag as well. It seems we as Americans have a bad rap for being nationalist but like I said it’s in our DNA.


So,… I’m excited and may the best team win. Nothing but respect to all the teams/racers who are participating

Not a thing wrong with waving/representing Old Glory with pride....if some candy-ass is offended, they can piss off.          I have no issue with any country waving their flag with pride during these races.

Let's see some good racing.

I feel good about this team. They will have to ride their best to compete for a win, but it’s not out of the question. Coop with a big chip on his shoulder is just what you want for this race.

It was. Those 5 Motos were some of the most dominant Motos of any rider ever. He was so far ahead of everyone in that class in speed , it was like he was in a different class.
