Basics to Passing
This next weekend at Seattle will be one for the history books.� The weather is starting to clear up, but the ruts will still be present.� Even more important than that, making those crucial passes stick will take timing and persistence to make sure each rider gets every critical point.� In any form of racing, [...]

WMX Rider Insight: Sayaka Kaneshiro
At the 13th annual 'A Day in the Dirt' I got a chance to talk with Sayaka "Teriyaki Sauce" Kaneshiro, WMX Pro #15
How was your racing today?
It was good, I thought we had a practice first, I went out and it was actually a race. I was just racing and riding around, I felt like ... WOW!
Photo by Heather Majcherek
What did you think of the event overall?
It was to difficult racing for me, because I didn't ride my pace. I rode about 6th place, less than I wanted to. I got the same number as last year, I just tried to do my best.

Interview: AMA Women's Motocross Champion Jessica Patterson
Jessica Patterson is the 2010 AMA Women's National Motocross Champion. Here is Supercross.com's latest interview with JP$.
Jessica, congratulations on your 2010 AMA Women's National MX Championship. You walked away with some amazing trophies from this summer's race wins .... where do you put all those great awards, and what does it mean to you when you see them?
Thanks Annj. I usually go straight to my parents house and drop them all off and let my mom decorate the house with them. But recently she told me that I have started to bring home too many, and to figure out where to put them at my place because her place is now full.
Her suggestion to me was to rent a storage unit if I didn?t want to keep them all over the house. They are all just hanging out at her house right now, and eventually when I decide where I want to move, then I will take them with me and start the decorating.
To see the trophies is pretty cool. It is what I have been working so hard for, and after struggling for for two years and now coming back and winning the championship in 2010, it makes it that much better. Seeing that I have all those number 1 trophies from each race except for two, it reminds me of how good of a year it really was, so it makes me really happy and makes me want to keep pushing.

DC Moto TF Ride Day with Josh Hill
In the 2010 AMA Supercross Championship series, Josh Hill consistently found himself on the podium. He ended the season sixth overall in points, in which he finished second in 5 of the 17 Main Events. In July, Josh spent time preparing for the 'Speed and Style' event for X Games 16. His practice session went from 'landing a backflip on his first attempt' to 'under rotating the next time around.' This horrific crash sent Josh to the hospital with a list of injuries and a whole new respect for the sport of Freestyle Motocross. I caught up with Josh, at Pala Raceway for the DC Moto TF Ride day, where he talked about his rehabilitation, his plans for Supercross 2011, and more!
Josh Hill at the DC Moto TF Ride Day
Angela: Hey Josh, you are looking good. How are you feeling?
Josh: Yeah I am getting better, everything is starting to heal up and I am getting to where I can function normally again. So it is getting better, but I need to focus on getting my body stronger. That is my main thing right now.

AMA Motocross Round 5 Lakewood Colorado Preview
The 2011 AMA National Motocross Championship series heads to Thunder Valley MX in Lakewood Colorado for Round 5 this coming Saturday, June 25.
There are three championship battles that will be racing on Saturday - the 450 Motocross class, the 250 MX Lites class, and the Women's class.
In the Motocross class, two-time AMA Supercross Champion Chad Reed, riding the number 22 Honda, is making it look easy, as he's won three of the four rounds to date. He leads Supercross Champion Ryan Villopoto, and current AMA Motocross class Champion Ryan Dungey in the point standings.
In the 250 MX Lites class, former MX2 World Motocross Champion Tyla Rattray, riding the number 28 Kawasaki, is leading the series over teammates Dean Wilson and Blake Baggett.
In the Women's class, it seems to be a two way battle between the current and former champion - Jessica Patterson and Ashley Fiolek.
Photos, results, and points from the 450 and 250 men's classes will be here.

Courtesy American Honda Racing announced today that Kevin Windham will continue competing in the 2011 AMA Motocross Championship with the factory Honda team at select events.
