1995 and 2013 MXoN

Motocross Illustrated
Edited Date/Time 10/2/2013 8:12am
Last week I mentioned how Team USA have often had trouble recapturing the Motocross of Nations once they lose it. They have still dominated the last 32 years of the event, winning 22 times and only losing it 10 times, but when they lose it, it usually takes them a couple of years to regain it.

This brings me to the similarities from that epic 1994 event when Team Great Britain, total underdogs won the event (thanks to an epic 125/MX2 rider by Paul Malin), then it was followed up with victory by the very strong Team Belgium in 1995.

Check out all the similarities here.

We didn't send a team in 2001, 2002 and 2004, so we only lost it seven times.

You're right.....you don't understand. If you really have only been here for two months.......I could understand why.

Because he takes a good flogging so well... sort if like a man-ho in prison.
