2011 Supercross: before it began, A1 &Oakland

Pre season for the 2011 supercross season was what it should be, all the hype for what is now referred to as the greatest season in the recent history of the sport. Thanks to the wonders of the internet, we were given tickets to a pre season small press event with the past two champions Ryan Dungey and James Stewart. It was fun to see the two of them less than a week before the opening round sharing a love seat and answering some fun and some serious questions.
How often do you get Stewart and Dungey that close to each other and not banging bars?


Since we did hit the road and drive through the night to make it to that event and it was so close to the first race, we just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to stay for the opening round. Anahiem 1 did not disappoint. I think I took as many pictures with riders/industry people as I possibly could. RC, Hill, Tedesco, Hart, twitch, Short, Reed, Mitch Payton and others!
RC= the Goat

Some of the other greats

Mitch Payton, the man behind the PC success

Once again thanks to the internet (Facebook I think) we got tickets from a Toyota dealer for Oakland SX. Track walk and JGR Toyota rig tour. Race 2 of 6 for 2011.

Next stop: A2 goes PINK!
