Morning guys,

Well we have a ton of epic Supercross/ Motocross action for you today! After what was simply the fastest passing weekend i can remember haha, how is it Tuesday already?! wow...

Wo0ho0! The Red Bull Straight Rhythm has landed and it's time to brraaappp some 2-Stroke blue smoke down the unique half mile track! We have stars from the past and the present ready to do battle and man it's gonna be awesome. The battle of the Ryans is on and it's great to see these two former rivals back headed up against each other.

The line up

There will be twenty eight riders taking part in the qualifying section and sixteen will emerge in the 250cc class and eight in the 150cc class. As reigning champ Gared Steinke will back and leading the group in defense of his title and he has some serious competition this year. Let's check out the riders in each class.

250cc Class

Ryan Dungey, Ryan Villopoto, Gared Steinke, Shane McElrath, Ronnie Mac, Jordon Smith, Ryan Sipes, Christophe Pourcel, Mike Alessi, Tyler Bowers, Vince Friese, Josh Grant, Ryan Morais, Cedric Soubeyras, Mike Brown, Darryn Durham, Johnny Jelderda, Cameron McAdoo and Kyle Partridge.

150cc Class

Gared Steinke, AJ Catanzaro, Colton Aeck, Carson Brown, Christophe Pourcel, Luke Renzland, Ryan Surratt, Chance Fullerton and Chase Marquier.

As you can see Gared Steinke is competing in both classes along with Christophe Pourcel so there is going to be a ton of action going down at this event. It will be interesting to see how they find jumping between the two bike sizes and if it effects their game...

Enough chat now though guys, it's race time!

MX World Season one Episode 1 - The Drive to Compete - Full Video HD

Don't worry though guys, i have something here which is just the ticket to chase away those Monday Blues. From the creators of MX Nation, one of my favorite shows none the less, comes a brand new journey outside of America and into the MXGP world. We get up close and personal with the worlds fastest racers, sure the Americans here might disagree but facts are facts and this years MXoN showed that.

We get to see how Herlings and Cairoli grew into the sport and some of the challenges they faced cutting their teeth on sandy tracks and beaten up old bikes. The drive was always there though to push through and win.

So guys, grab yourself a coffee, tea, beer or whatever and check this out :)
