Just catching thunder on YouTube. How has the AMA managed to market this so poorly that it can’t attract a 40 man gate of well qualified riders? Seems outrageous that these wouldn’t attract the best up and coming talent.

Ditto the other questions. I have a Denon AVR-720 and use the rear two channels for speakers in another room of the house. The cable run is at least 40ft with no sound quality issues. It would be helpful to know what receiver/amplifier you’re using.

Haha yeah thanks I was being a bit sarcastic. For anyone that's interested they have rentals up near houghton Michigan. It's a helluva drive up into the upper peninsula though. From what I've read they're almost a bust unless you live in an area with a large amount of powder.

The AMA were probably early adopters for the potential untapped money. My gut feel is that it's a motorcycle with tracks but I suppose if you get technical... mo·tor·cy·cle ˈmōdərˌsīk(ə)l/ noun a two-wheeled vehicle that is powered by a motor and has no pedals snow·mo·bile ˈsnōməˌbēl/ noun...

Up here in Michigan it's the same thing but I'm also a part of the problem. I would much rather fork up $35 to ride for 6 hours during a practice session than spend triple that for a few classes and a tenth the track time during race day. Even worse... I bought the "season pass" off road sticker...

I'll give you a 2013 450sxf with 20hrs for $4,500. May even include a spark plug wrench for that price.

Mansfield motorcycle club; harescramble. XR100. Circa 2000. First and last harescramble for about the next 8 years. It was 35 degrees and I froze my butt off. Went on to ride exclusively MX/Indoors up until 2 years ago.

I have a 2006 specialized epic comp that might be right up your alley. It's a full suspension cross country style mtb.

So I'm going to draw on the experience of many years of designing tracks for video games for various platforms. What is most highly regarded are uphill and downhills, natural whoops, jumps built into natural terrain, or a combination of the prior 3 (ideal). It's no secret that what is fun in a...

Is it common for the city to enact penalties like that for unpermitted jobs? I'm about to break ground on an outdoor kitchen and don't plan on getting permits. I've researched different codes about distance from house/property line and foundation requirements. Figured that should be good, but...

We stayed at The Hostel right in Teton village. Flew into the Jackson Hole airport. It was definitely one of the nicest small airports I've ever been through. The hostel was just big enough to sleep 4 and that was about it. Not even a TV. I'm not going to say it was cheap. Lift tickets were in...

Just ventured out to Jackson Hole last week. Half of their runs are expert runs. I highly recommend it. Can't beat the aprés either!

If you want to invest time into researching various combinations of obstacles before laying down 21,000T of dirt I might suggest reaching out to the MX Simulator community. I realize this is foreign territory for most but there are literally thousands of tracks that have been developed by a lot...

I've read that Dungey runs a 13/51 instead of the 14/52 stock, possible Short is doing something similar?

Ian Trettel was dominant as an amateur but suffered some unfortunate injuries. http://motocross.transworld.net/1000111787/news/personal-letter-from-ian-trettel/

Before doing anything, make sure you're not recording at 4k. On the 4-Silver, 4k mode records at 15 frames per second. This will be noticeably choppy with fast action footage. You'll want to have the correct SD card as was mentioned above. This is from GoPro's website. I use a Sandisk Extreme...

Still to this day I remember a kid at the 05-06 Red Bud Regional who showed up in a mini van pulling an open trailer with 1 bike strapped in. They slept in sleeping bags right by the trailer, no tent. With bent levers, no graphics kit, age old gear, and incredible natural talent he went out to...

I had an excellent experience with Epik. I do know that he's (possibly still) a one man shop and I don't think it's his full time business. On the radio this morning they talked of a USPS worker who horded 40,000 letters in the last 6 years, maybe he has your graphics.

I didn't participate in voting this year but if it was anything like last year's contest, we rallied the entire community of MX Simulator to vote for 1 specific video. OAP is right in saying it's not so much about video quality but online social backing.

For those of you who don't browse Popular Science, here's a good read on DARPA's funding of a hybrid motorcycle running on a potential myriad of fuels ranging from gasoline to JP 8 jet fuel. The body is based on the RedShift MX which has been around for a little while. It will be interesting to...
