Here I am up early on an off day, but I gives me time to finally post my MXdN pics with thought behind it. Many days and weeks I wasn’t interested, and I think you know why. But what a great moto weekend it was! Sat/Sun for me and a couple bros - plus the bros we ran into by plan or not. There are no Lot B pics so don’t expect any; sorry hahaha. Posting these reminds me of each pic's story, so i'll diarrhea thru some. Read it or not i hope ya'll enjoy the pics.

Being from about 3 hours away between Pontiac and Flint I attended as Team Cuba (this is not a political or religious post). I was searching my extensive wardrobe collection for Red, White, and Blue and among it was my Cuba soccer team shirt, and my the Bald Eagle wearing a R,W&B flag helmet I wore to REDDDDD BUUUUUDDDDD on the 4th. The Cuba theme comes from a construction/mission trip to Cuba I was blessed by in January ’18, but that’s for another post. Carrying on as I do… carry on, and i hope you enjoy me pics and me dribble




Notice the fast guy on the bike looking back. That's about the only time he looked back over the weekend. This was before Saturday practice, and before (EDIT) most Yanks learning he is a very very fast guy.

Cool pics ?

BTW us in Europe already knew that Prado was one of the fastest riders in the world.
Thanks and I don't disagree about Prado. I knew he was fast but wow

You beat me to the punch. If you've followed GP motocross for 50 years, like I have, you knew this Tsunami was coming for a while. It was an ass kicking royal'.

Our guys were looking the other way when the wave hit them. US had nice team jackets though.

Hopefully we can recover and deliver an ass kicking like the 1980's, but I have my doubts.

Can't wait for Anaheim1. Go Rob Wageman!

'Merica!


At least 6 of these guys were running/rolling/wrestling around in the mud, and they were hilarious. While walking the pits we were chatting with a couple from Utah, and they said their son (21 as i recall) is wearing a bald eagle head and tights, and took off when they parked. We all laughed




Go Team Mexico! Go Team Cuba!






The gent on the left was having a tough time of it after making it up, and looked better before our attempt down



Team Netherlands knew how to party, and for good reason



Announcer: "WE WILL NOT DROP THE GATE UNTIL YOU GET OFF THE FENCE"
The crowd... "yo, get off the fence"



You meet the nicest people at the MXdN!

Agreed my mistake on that wording and I'll edit it LOL. The US (who don't follow GPs. I do) who didn't already know. I surely did as did everyone NOT from USA!

Great pics and story line. I'm still bummed that the weather took such a lousy turn. Michigan can also have some beautiful weather in October and we came up snake eyes instead. I was also disappointed with the track changes. I'd love to have the big boys from MXGP come race the National on the 4th of July weekend. The two series should have a mini "Trans-Am" series during the summer where we race over there 2 or 3 times and they come to the states for 2 or three rounds with each counting towards their respective series points. Also let me point out motomad724 that there is a couple pictures in there that can't be unseen Unsure

Seems like a year ago already. I know it took me a while to come down from that high. Even if the weather was good, I don't think it could of gotten any better

Great pictures and story I never did finish mine as I was having too much fun and time went by.

I think you just might have put the bug in me to finish up my Moto D experience. Cool
