The sport of motocross is dying at the grassroots local level,
are we all just gonna watch & let it die...?
Let's start a Resurgence movement, not just sit by.
Let's start fresh & bring in new ideas, lets relook at everything and find new ways to grow the sport!
As it is right now the general public knows very little about the sport anymore, it out of sight out of mind. A lot of people don't see or think about Motocross as something that they could do anymore.
Most people know very little about motocross.
Most people these days have never tried riding a dirt bike.
I believe to fully appreciate even watching pro SX And MX racing you need to have ridden a dirt bike at some point.
(And I have a plan for how we can let more people try it)
Most people don't all know that even adults can ride and race smaller dirt bikes.
(I think mini mx and stair stepped classes are one of the answers to growing the sport)
People don't all know that riding is good exercise and creates a desire to be in good shape and encourages exercise, good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle.
Most people don't know that small 110cc dirt bikes and other air cooled bikes are very reliable and affordable.
People don't know what a day at the track is like how it gets kids outside, and how it is like tailgating or camping, its like a big family BBQ.
It has a strong sense of community, It's a brotherhood
Most People don't know that motocross creates friendships and brings families together.
Most people don't know there are ways to participate and ride motocross that are less dangerous than what is seen on TV.
Most people don't know that there are inexpensive ways to participate and race motocross.
It gets kids outside and doing something other than iPads and video games, and is an active lifestyle
Most peopledon't know that it teaches kids goal setting, responsibility and good sportsmanship.
