After a highly successful first year the crew decided to continue the tradition as it's a great way to remember what Lusk meant to the sport of FMX. It also serves as a reminder to not take life for granted as what these guys do day in and day out may come with severe consequences.

This past Saturday was Round 5 of the 2012 AMA Supercross series and the second stop at Angels Stadium in Anaheim, CA. With tons of complaints about the track at Anaheim 1, the track crew stepped up and gave the riders a great track for A2. The main points of A2's layout were the many places to pass, a nice long whoop section and numerous rhythm sections that gave the riders optional flight paths around the track.

ANAHEIM, Calif.(February 4, 2012) - Monster Energy Kawasaki's Ryan Villopoto, of Poulsbo, Wash., became the first rider of the 2012 Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, to win two races, leading all 20 laps of the Main Event tonight at Angel Stadium in front of a sold-out crowd.

Just when you think it's safe to start betting on your favorite rider, things get all discombobulated. Now four weeks into the series and we have four different winners in the premier Supercross/450 class. Crazy! Less than a week ago, the naysayers were telling James Stewart to put a fork in it--he's done. He is proving them wrong. By week one in the series we all realized top riders such as Davi Millsaps or Mike Alessi will be main..]]> 32580 http://www.grindtv.com/moto/blog/32575/heath+frisby+lands+first+ever+front+flip+on+a+snowmobile+during+x+games/ Sun, 29 Jan 2012 20:46:28 PST

This latest injury is the fourth in less than 12 months. It's unknown if this injury could be a career ending and/or if Trey Canard can make a comeback again. Only time will tell now.

Round 3 of the 2012 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series was something out of a spaghetti western: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. There was that moment when I witnessed Trey Canard getting landed on where I felt sick to my stomach and was in a temporary..]]> 32490 http://www.grindtv.com/moto/blog/32488/2012+monster+energy+supercross+results+los+angeles/ Sun, 22 Jan 2012 17:49:37 PST

Two weeks into the 2012 Monster Energy AMA Supercross series and we already have a race for the title in both classes. Yet few will remember who finished 2nd or 20th in Phoenix on January 14. The only thing they will remember is what color bike won and who was riding it. On any other night, the motorcycle manufacturer rarely overshadows who was riding it. However, on this special day it..]]> 32425 http://www.grindtv.com/moto/blog/32423/injured+lavallee+and+bodin+will+miss+winter+x+games+2012/ Tue, 17 Jan 2012 11:12:40 PST

Anaheim One always breaks the ice as the first Supercross round of the year. In a way, it's a lot like your first day of school; many of the riders have new teams and new bikes as well as a different program. Everybody on the track wants to impress at A1 and sometimes we see guys crack under pressure because they don't have all of the jitters worked out of their system. Basically, Anaheim One will tell you a lot, and..]]> 32388 http://www.grindtv.com/moto/blog/32360/post+race+interview+with+ryan+villopoto+winner+of+anaheim+1/ Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:23:06 PST
Last year was an epic season and Ryan Villopoto emerged the victor despite some bad luck, yet that luck also swung his way as well, which helped secure his first premier title and Monster Energy AMA Supercross and FIM World Supercross Champion of 2011. RV kicked off 2012 just like he left 2011--a winner. He almost made it look easy.

It was the defending class champion Ryan Villopoto that made it look easy and ran away with the win at the opening round of the 2012 Monster Energy Supercross Series at Anaheim Stadium in Southern California. Are we going to see a repeat of Villopoto's domination at Phoenix and beyond? 12.2 seconds behind Villopoto was TwoTwo Motorsports rider Chad Reed who tried to minimize the gap but was not able to do so before the checkers.
