Jeremy McGrath also known as "The King of Supercross", is a household name. He can be seen on the supercross track, the rally truck track, hillclimbs, and is often seen on the Honda commercials. He has won a record 72 races on his 250cc, his plate number is 2, and he rides for Honda. The odd thing is, most people only know that he raced with Honda, but in 2003 he signed with KTM but only raced once before crashing and later retireing. McGrath has brought Supercross to where it's at today. Most fans would argue that without McGrath riders like, Carmicheal, Stewart, Dungey, and Villipoto would not be where they are at today. McGrath has a wide range of fans, from the moto track to truck track, no matter w hat he does, he will ALWAYS have his loyal fans. In 2005, his moto fans where happy to see him back on the track racing and coming in the top 5 postions, but fans also where shocked to hear that the 2006 Invitational would be the last Professional race of his career. McGrath was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. No matter if he races or not, McGrath will always be part of Supermoto history.

2010 Honda CRF450R
THE 2010 HONDA CRF450R
The Honda CRF450R has been named Cycle World's Best Motocross bike for eight years running. And the new 2010 model is no doubt doing just as well as any other year they have been on the top. The 2010 has a HRC Fuel-Injection system that allows you to adjust and fine tune the amount of fuel relased into your carb. This CRF450R also features a light-weight steering system that allows for a quicker and sharper turning. This bike is all around a top bike on the race track, but is good for any kind of riding you enjoy. It does great on the track, the trail, the hills, the mud, the sand, and anything else you throw at it. I as a rider myself would recommend this bike to anyone with experince on a dirt bike.

Ryan Dungey
Ryan Dungey.......One of the top riders on the 2010 Motocross season. Dungey rides pro for Suziki and steped up to their 450 for the 2010 season, Dungey went pro in 2006. Dungey has been taken under the wings of both Ricky Carmichael and Roger Decoster, both we have made their mark on the motocross world. Dungey has won 18 titles in just 3 years of pro racing, which happens to be a good acheivment. Dungey's other successes are leading the USA team to another win in the Motocross of Nations held in Italy last year, he also acheived being named rider of they year by both Transworld Motocross and Racer X Illustrated. Dungey is part of a family loaded with racers, his father being an amateur racer in his youth, and both of Dungey's siblings are racers in the amateur circuit. As motocross continues to grow and become more popular, you can for sure continue to see Dungey in the winning circle, don't be suprised if you see Dungey taking the win when you watch your next race.

The 2010 KTM 250 SX
The new 2010 KTM 450 SX-F is for sure a bike to look out for. KTM has come a long way from the 2009 model, the 2010 has so much more to offer. It comes out of the box ready to race, KTM has once again amazed me with their ability to make fantastic dirt bikes. the '10 has a single cylinder 4 stroke engine, a compression rato of 12.5:1, liquid cooled, renthal handlebars, ground clearance is 14.95", tank capacity is about 2.11 gallons, and the bike with no gas weighs about 230.6 Ibs. This bike is built for speed and has great handleing. It's got the ability to do both motocross and trail riding. It's a great bike for any rider, atleast if your tall enough to get on it.
