Motocross World & British Championship Team STR
Motocross is one of the few professional sports to immerse spectators in the action, allowing them to get within inches of the top riders as they thunder around the demanding motocross circuits and with each major event consisting of at least four races throughout the day the action is almost non stop. When there is a short break in the action this allows the fans to wander freely around the paddock chatting with the teams and their riders and studying the meticulously prepared motocross machines as the mechanics give the bikes their undivided attention.
STR KTM will be competing in the Maxxiss British Championships and the World Championships in 2012. Remember to look out for our Facebook and twitter pages.

He was forced to relinquish his lead to rival Brad Anderson several laps later, but continued to push hard until disaster struck. Read the rest of this report »
