We received a message this morning from a motocross fan who could use a lift to Budds Creek this weekend. His name is Marek Vaňo and he hails from Slovakia but is spending this summer working near Leesburg, Virginia (20147), which is about 80 miles from Budds Creek. He can't afford a rental car and there's no direct bus or train route, so he asked if we could help:
"Hello. My name is Marek Vaňo and I am here on summer as a visitor from Europe and I watch every AMA motocross race. Now I have big chance to really to see American motocross because I live only two hours with car from Budds Creek track, but I don't have a car and I can't find optimal bus or train from here to Budds Creek. So I want only to ask if some good guys going to race have one free place in car and maybe can take me with them if they journey past or around Leesburg or Ashburn in Virginia? Thank you very much for answer, sincerely Marek Vaňo, Slovakia."
If you can help out, contact Marek through Facebook.

Hopefully, we will see this guy at the races!

Coincidental story: Twenty years ago Jeff Cernic and I went to Slovakia for the MXoN at Sverepec (Team USA lost, Belgium won and I think Pit Beirer won motos for Germany). On Friday night we were heading back to town and ended up picking up five hitchhikers that turned out to be part of the PAMO Honda team that missed their ride! Two of them got in the trunk because we were full but I still remember it being hilarious and probably a little illegal, or at least it would have been in America... Good times.

Going to be an interesting ride...
Good that the Vital community does this, nice!
And to everyone that wanted to help (paypal) thank you, but this one is on me.
