I will take a look. What class was he in and brand bike he was on?   That might make it easier for me to find a photo.

Yes, thank you ! #50 KTM, MX2 class.

I will look . I may not have a chance until over the weekend. But I'll look and post what I find.  I have some photos on DVD's that I'll have to look through.  I'll post any images I  have of him. 

 

  KTM offered  support for  any of the teams with a rider on a KTM  there was this giant lineup of KTM's before the teams put their stuff on them.

went with my dad. it was beyond epic. never witnessed anyone ever ride a bike harder than RV all weekend, he was on a mission.

DC was a great experience as well. we hit all the major museums, saw some fatties wreck on a segway, drank with some crazy guys from Norway at a little bar downtown, checked out the night-life across the river, rode a subway for our first time ever...

amazing trip.

I was there too and completely agree about RV. The fastest I’ve ever seen ANYONE ride. Waxed the field of 450s on a 250!

Made the trip over the pond for the weekend. First ever MXoN. Missed just a few since then.


I took this picture at our Team Germany Truck. Little guy in a yellow shirt photobombed my shot though 😜

I'm sure Sasquatch will have some shots of Arnaud but here are a couple photos of Arnaud Tonus from the 2007 MXdN, I also put a bunch more photos of him in my photo gallery.
Here is the link to my 2007 MXdN  photos  https://pbase.com/thomasef/2007_motocross_des_nations 
 
I made up a folder with just photos of  Arnaud in that gallery.

Great pics! That was a truly epic event. Villopoto's domination of his respective motos were some of the greatest motosports competition performances in history. His terminal velocity crossing the holeshot line was just shy of 450 kph. What's that comec2013BuddsCreek 011.jpg?VersionId=Sy2PYd9nJXi 2P5CzNQTxKP1NFDRXe to in mph? 👀😬
