WMX Rider Insight: Jackie Ives

In only her second season as a professional Motocross racer, Jackie Ives is currently sitting in 16th position for the WMX point standings through the first four rounds of the 2010 AMA Woman's Motocross Championship Series.

Jackie Ives (17) cheezing on the line at Thunder Valley

You might think 'How cool is it to be racing professional motocross all over the USA!' But it's a lot harder and a lot more work than you might think! Not all racers get the big bucks and the factory rides like James Stewart, Ryan Dungey, and Chad Reed. As a matter of fact, most of the woman racers in the USA have to work quite hard during the week just to make it to the race track!

20120516 mcgrath bethematch 10 Be the Match Bone Marrow Drive

Today was the second bone marrow drive for Jeremy McGrath's wife Kim at the Monster Energy Headquarters in Corona, CA. Kim was recently diagnosed with "Leukemia Cutis", which is Leukemia of the skin and will likely undergo a bone marrow transplant soon. Jeremy has taken to social media outlets in an effort to get more people registered as donors. The event was filled with friends and fans of the Motocross industry that were all willing to help "be the one to save a life." Joining the registry is a simple, and painless process - we truly have the power to save lives!

casey stoner retirement 2012 Casey Stoner Just Announced His Retirement
Casey Stoner just announced his retirement on the Le Mans press confereces today. This Australian rider was told that there were much time has been sacrificed on race, especially MotoGP, now its time to stop as the passion is lost. 
Casey Stoner:
"Over the years there have been things in the sport that have disappointed but also things I've loved. now the balance has tipped" said Stoner. This has been coming for a couple of years now but at the end of this 2012 season I will be not racing in the 2013 Championship. I will be finishing my career at the end of this season in MotoGP, and go forward in different things in my life. It has changed a lot and to the point where I am not enjoying it. I don't have the passion for it and so it's better if I retire now"

It would be nice if I could say I would stay one more year, but then where does it stop? So we decided to finish everything as we are now

This 2012 will be the last season for Stoner. Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo told that Stoner's retirement is a big loss for MotoGP

The Hypermotard series is growing long in the tooth, and while everyone expects the Ducati’s smaller Superbike to get revamped in 2013, here is some evidence to suggest that the big news at EICMA this year will be an all-new Hypermotard model. Expected to have a water-cooled motor, best guesses would have the new Hypermotard using the 849cc Testastretta power plant, which would dovetail nicely with the supersport-sized Superbike getting an ~800cc variant of the ...

Casey Stoner’s Statement on His Retirement: “The Sport Has Changed, And I’ve Lost The Passion For It”

At the start of the pre-event press conference at Le Mans, Casey Stoner made the following statement:

"Afternoon everyone.

"Basically, this has come after a long time of thinking, a lot of time talking with my family and my wife. This has been coming for a couple of years now, but at the end of this 2012 season, I will be not racing in the 2013 championship. I will be finishing my career at the end of this season in MotoGP and go forward with something different with my life.

"After so many years of doing the sport which I love, and which myself and my family made so many sacrifices for, after so many years of trying to get to where we have gotten to and this point. This sport has changed a lot, and it's changed to the point that I'm not enjoying it, I don't have the passion for it. So at this time, it's better if I retire now. There's a lot of things that have disappointed me and also a lot of things that I have loved about this sport, but unfortunately, the balance has gone in the wrong direction, and so basically I won't be continuing any more. It would be nice if I can stay that I will stay for just one more year, but then when does it stop? So we decided to finish everything as we are now."

R4TC: 2010 Ride for the Cure at Cahuilla Motocross Park

I haven't hit the track much in 2010, but knowing that the 4th Annual Motocross Ride for the Cure Event was coming, I dusted off the KTM, dropped it off at Malcolm Motorsports for some fine tuning, hit Milestone Motocross Track for a handful of warm ups and I was ready to enjoy the funnest event of the year hosted by motocross enthusiast herself, Laurie Carey, who is constantly raising the bar for fundraising, support, education and interaction for Breast Cancer Awareness!

20101002 mxrideforcure 26 R4TC: 2010 Ride for the Cure at Cahuilla Motocross Park

The morning started off amazing, perfect day to moto! The sky's were bright blue and littered with dark fluffy rain clouds! Dropping rain in perfect track watering patterns, the day was in full swing and the pits were packed! Tons of Factory support lined up for the event, they even had a never ending Freestyle show in the works! Mike Metzger, the God Father of FMX was doing his thing and dozens of other talented riders busting out tricks for the fans.

20101002 mxrideforcure 4 R4TC: 2010 Ride for the Cure at Cahuilla Motocross Park

I pretty much settled into a pack rat of MXGirls, WMA Pro Rider Elizabeth Bash, Race Techs Michelle Marshall, and Mission Motorsports Brooklyn McClendon. We had a blast mixing it up on the main and vet tracks, sporting our decorated "Ride for the Cure" Bra's and having a blast spinning laps, saving boobies!

In the end I was amazed at the growth this event has accumulated over the years, by far the most impressive outcome I've seen. I'm looking forward to next year's event, but more importantly, it's touching to see all the work Laurie Carey puts into the Support and Awareness of Breast Cancer.

Champion Stoner: I’m quitting as MotoGP has changed too much

2012 Le Mans MotoGP Thursday Round Up: On Casey Stoner’s Retirement

It is hard to upstage Valentino Rossi. It takes something large, significant, to take the limelight away from the nine-time World Champion, and the man who has been the charismatic heart of MotoGP for the best part of 15 years. To do that, you have to "Go big or go home," as British road racer Guy Martin likes to put it.

At Le Mans, Casey Stoner upstaged Rossi. The press conference - usually a rather staid affair, with the usual niceties about the track, each rider's chances at the circuit and a couple of witticisms - started unusually, with Nick Harris, the veteran commentator who leads the official press conferences, saying that Stoner would like to make a statement to the press. Stoner then proceeded to press the big red button that set Twitter, the internet and newswires ablaze. In the process, he did not so much ignite the 2013 MotoGP Silly Season, as douse it in liquid oxygen and set a flame thrower to it.

Stoner's announcement that he will retire at the end of this season has been covered in depth just about everywhere - see transcripts of his statement to the press here, and his detailed responses to questions here - but the question is, what happened to the Australian's denials exactly two weeks ago at Estoril of the stories that emerged in the Spanish press? Was the report in Solo Moto correct, and had Stoner already decided to retire at Jerez, or was Stoner being truthful when he denied any decision had been made. Piecing together the puzzle of what happened over the past few weeks, the following picture emerges.

2012 Le Mans MotoGP FP2 Result: Stoner’s Reign Continues

Casey Stoner's domination at Le Mans continues. After taking top spot in the morning, the Australian spent the first part of practice further down the standings before finding his feet towards the end, and punching in three laps in the 1'33s. He ended the session on top of the timesheets, a quarter of a second ahead of his Repsol Honda teammate Dani Pedrosa. Factory Yamaha rider Jorge Lorenzo finished in 3rd, within four tenths of Stoner, and three tenths ahead of San Carlo Gresini's Alvaro Bautista, who was impressively quick throughout. Bautista got in front of the second Factory Yamaha of Ben Spies, while Andrea Dovizioso won the battle of the Monster Tech 3 Yamahas, but only by twenty-five thousandths, Cal Crutchlow ending behind Dovizioso in 7th. Hector Barbera led the Ducatis, the Pramac man finishing in 8th, ahead of Valentino Rossi and Nicky Hayden.
