Monroe NY Is Home to This Pro AMA Supercross and Motocross Racer
Are you a fan of Supercross or Motorcross? It is a sport that I had a friend introduce me to now every Saturday night during the season, we are both looking forward to seeing all of our favorite guys go round the track, hopefully without fighting, running into each other or getting hurt.
There are many names that you will hear because they are great racers, be it on a 250 with Jett and Hunter Lawrence or on the 450's with Eli Tomac, Chase Sexton or our man, who is affectionately known as Bam Bam.

What made Justin Barcia's ride at the MetLife NJ race so important?
Justin has a comfort with riding in the mud and that particular Saturday in April, it poured at MetLife Stadium in Rutherford NJ. It rained so much that the organizers of the event actually called a rain delay. There was talk of holding the rest of the race the next day, it was a complete mud fest. After the rain delay, the races got underway, the 250 Main and the 450 Main.
