The BikeSportNZ.com crew have left the building.

Once again, determined not to just give you other people’s words and pictures, some of the staff from BikeSportNZ.com and Kiwi Rider magazine are heading off to distant shores to be there personally to record all the action, this time to the United States and the final Motocross World Championship race of the season.

The web site may or may not be updated on a daily basis while we’re away … we might just decide to take a well-deserved holiday as we visit friends in California and elsewhere … but rest-assured we’ll be back up to speed soon after we return and, of course, you can read all about it in Kiwi Rider magazine in the weeks that follow.

We’ll reluctantly brave the 30-plus degree temperatures over the weekend of the MXGP at Glen Helen to give you the background as Kiwi riders Ben Townley and Cody Cooper go head-to-head with the best riders that America and the rest of the world can come up with.
