I watched a classic movie. Supercross: The Movie. Kidding of course. But in that movie they have the Supermoto race and that got me thinking about what happened to it? There in the mid 2000s it seemed to be growing in popularity. Guys like Ward, Henry, and Pingree were all competing. It was also a popular X Games event and the likes of McGrath and even Reed would compete in the middle of his Nationals schedule.
So I guess my question is what happened? Economy? Popularity dropped as quickly as it rose? I think it would be a cool thing for RacerX to cover (if they haven’t already) since they have a contributor there in Pingree who lived it first hand.
Anyone have any info on why it’s not talked about at all anymore?
