What comes to mind when you think of Mexico?

That's a difficult question, there's a million different things that happen in Mexico that make it so unique. An endless coastline of uncrowded wave perfection, insane amounts of crime, tacos, tequila boom booms, cheap prescription drugs, crazy banditos, unusual animal shows, Lucha Libre's, and pretty much anything else you can possibly think of.

For these guys, it's all about cervezas, tequila and riding some of the best trails you could possibly imagine at the 2nd Annual FMF Baja Bonanza. Jeremy McGrath, Cameron Steele, Jeff 'Ox' Kargola, Cuyler Ruskin and friends, along with FMF's Don Emler Jr. (Lil D) head to the Mexican desert for some off-roading fun, thrills and spills.

You know that one time of year when your whole family gets together, your parents, all your brothers, your sisters, the cousins, the aunts and uncles, the in-laws, the whole big family.

Well that was December 7th for the DC Moto team. It's designed to be the one time of year when all their team gets together at the DC Moto Training Facility at Pala Raceway to ride, shoot photos, and talk with the media culminating in a Poker Night benefiting the Road to Recovery Foundation. The non profit organization is founded by action sports agent and former pro motocross/ DC athlete Jimmy Button, dedicated to helping motocross and Supercross athletes who have been injured.

The whole team was out at the Track including hall of fame inductee Jeremy McGrath, Travis Pastrana, Robbie Maddison, newly named rider of the year Nate Adams, Josh Hill, and more. One rider was noticeably late to the party. Maybe DC leading lady Jolene Van Vugt was too busy working out? No actually she was stuck in travel hell. Her flight from Canada was canceled, so she took a 4 hour bus ride in the middle of the night to Detroit, hoped on a plane which had to land due to an emergency on the plane. She eventually made her way to the track to deliver on her responsibilities. So not only is she ridiculously fit, she's extremely determined.

Check back for video from DC Ride day as well as exclusive interviews with Pastrana, McGrath, and Adams on the long lasting effects of injuries in motocross.

Seven-Time AMA Supercross Champion Jeremy McGrath has finally being given the nod for induction in to the Motorsport's Hall of Fame. The "King of Supercross" will be inducted August 24th and 25th in Detroit, Mich.

Soon after banging bars at the Monster Energy Powder Mountain Motocross event he'll jump on a plane to Detroit to unveil a permanent display at the prestigious Hall of Fame and for that evening's Inductee Reception. No rest for the wicked though, as soon as he finishes receiving one of motorsport's highest honors, he's back on the plane headed for Chicago in order to make the driver's meeting for the next round of the TORC off-road race series.

It wouldn't be 2010 unless HD cameras follow his every move, either. FUELtv will be shadowing him throughout the process and will be turning the adventure in to an episode of FIRST HAND.

Stay tuned for show times and more information.

Saturday at Bark River International Raceway, for rounds 7 and 8 of the Traxxas TORC Series presented by AMSOIL, seven-time AMA Supercross Champion Jeremy McGrath added another bullet to his already-impressive racing career by winning his first-ever PRO 2WD!

The second time back to Bark River proved a complete about face for McGrath who had previously suffered mechanical difficulties resulting in an unfortunate dnf. On Saturday all elements of great racing fell into place for McGrath as he had a rocket fast start and set a great race pace ultimately putting his Monster Energy/MasterCraft/Toyota/BFG truck in the winner's circle for the first time in his off-road truck racing career!

From the winner's circle, an elated McGrath had this to say, "What do you say about this Bark River track?" I think it's one year to the day that Rob got me on the last lap and ended up winning that race. We finally got to seal the deal." McGrath added later from the podium, "I gotta say thanks to the whole Greaves team, Kurt and Johnny and Brad and the whole crew. I mean, all you guys have put in a lot of work for me and have been patient and I appreciate that. This is a weekend I've been waiting on for a long time, so what better place to have it than Bark River!"

Sunday's Round 8, McGrath took a second-place podium spot, in the PRO 2WD class for Greaves Motorsports, ahead of series points leader MacCachren and set the fast lap of the race, a 1:24.762 lap, taking home his second PRO 2 Oakley Bomb award of the 2010 season. McGrath now sits second in the overall championship points race.

Off-Road Champion Johnny Greaves is proud to announce that Liquid Force, maker of premium wakeboards and apparel, is joining the Monster Energy Forest County Potawatomi Toyota Race Team for the 2010 Season of The Traxxas TORC Series. Greaves, the most prolific winner in short-course racing, will add Liquid Force to its Pro 4 and Pro 2 teams driven by himself and Jeremy McGrath.

"Liquid Force is the top name in the water sports industry and I am very excited to associate with Matt Gleason and the team there", added Greaves. "I'm a long time fan and user of their products, and that makes it more fun to add them to our team". Matt Gleason, Director of Marketing for Liquid Force, had this to say about the new sponsorship, "Johnny Greaves and Jeremy McGrath are great champions and Liquid Force is pleased to join such a great team for its entry into motorsports.

This is an excellent cross-marketing opportunity for us and TORC's great TV package and nationwide exposure offers us a great fit. We are looking forward to exposing Liquid Force products to the off-road community and TORC fans world-wide." "I attended the Crandon TORC race last fall and was blown away by the enthusiasm of the off-road fans and knew right away that this would be a great sport to get Liquid Force involved in," Gleason continued. "This is going to be a lot of fun working with Johnny & Jeremy and a great fit for our brand!"
