Another 31 races… Damn it feels good! I’m beyond grateful and fortunate to be in the position I’m in, and with each passing season I realize it more and more. So much so that imposter syndrome sets in at times, but we keep it pushin and get ready for the next weekend’s race. Each weekend feels like a blur sometimes because we’re in and out of each city so quickly, but we still have a ton of fun with each other and we’ve made some insane memories over the years.

Shoutout to my crew @octopi.media! Love my team and all of our clients. Thank you all for letting me do my thing 🙏🏼. Also, a huge thank you to @yamahamotorusa @starracingyamaha @racekawasaki for the hospitality all year long and of course thank you to the riders!

One last thing, @zaynemaeda I love you so much! Thank you for letting me do my thing with my cameras all over the country, while you’re at home with our two babies. They’re lucky to have such a badass mom! Love you my queen!

… Till next year 🫡

Who doesn’t love a good @brett991 yarn spin? No one, that’s who!

Brett Lee came with me to Round 1 of the @supermotocross Playoffs in Columbus, Ohio, this past weekend. Were there a few bumps in the road? Of course. Can anyone tell the tale better than Brett? Nope.

Head over to the site to read his story as he took the reins for this week’s Monday Morning Coffee column.

Find the link in our Stories post or in our Linktree labelled “Brett Lee.”

Let’s hope we can talk him into doing a regular column for DMX.

The @rmatvmc Summer School Presented By @worksconnection and @bludlubricants is up on all podcast platforms.

This week we go over the happenings from @springcreekmx with @aden_keefer47 and @mrskeefer165. We will break down the track changes and how they raced, how Aden and I did without PNH at the race, moto one highs (and lows), moto two’s swollen private parts, the mental aspect of racing professional, Millville fans, and A LOT more from the inside of the PHX Racing Team.

If you weren’t there it will feel like you were! Come join the family and I for some extra circular activities from Minnesota won’t ya?

Listen 🎧wherever you get your pods or head to our website now. See you at Washougal!

As the team owner, securing the top independent team result at this week’s round of the SuperMotocross World Championship is an nice feeling. But if we are being completely honest, we want more.

Race day threw absolutely everything at us. It was a weekend filled with just as many brutal challenges and setbacks as there were hard-fought successes. That is the reality of racing at this level.

Regardless of the obstacles, I am extremely proud of our entire team and partners. The way everyone put their heads down, worked through the chaos, and maintained absolute focus all day long was inspiring.

It is awesome to feel some serious momentum building right now. But make no mistake, we are just getting warmed up. The best is yet to come.

Luck had nothing to do with it! Whole lot of blood, sweat and tears went into getting here and I’m damn proud of the journey. It’s a badass job, but it ain’t for everybody.

Another very successful SX season with my bros @garthmilan @ryneswanberg @trevornelsonmedia. Another 17 rounds done and dusted, just like that. Massive thank you to @octopi.media and our clients that make this thing happen.

Shoutout to my wife @zaynemaeda for holding down the homestead. I know it’s not easy with two babies. Love you my queen!

The journey continues… one way or another.

See ya outdoors! 🫡

To say that the last two weeks have been a whirlwind would be an understatement. One day I was riding moto and mountain bikes, and the next I was in the hospital wondering if I was going to make it to my daughter’s wedding. Had a heart health scare (damn genetics) and I’m really blessed to have caught the clogged artery before I had a real emergency. Five days of wondering in a hospital bed was scary but in the end I had one stent inserted into my heart and I’m good to go with my normal everyday routines! I had a pretty amazing support system…thanks to all who made my time there easier to bear! Was so happy to walk Meg down the aisle and spend some unforgettable times with my family only two days later. Then it was back to “work” in Salt Lake City for Supercross! (And a couple rides with help from @ari.bikes) I live a blessed life and I know it. I’ll never take this for granted!

Behind the build in Cleveland.

Rain in the forecast has this one changing by the hour. From prep to execution, the Dirt Wurx crew is putting in serious work to manage moisture, protect the base, and keep the track race-ready for a full Triple Crown format.

@mxgoldenboy caught up with @dirt_wurx_alex from @dirt_wurx to break down the build, the strategy, and what riders could be facing if the weather rolls in.

Conditions could turn this into something we have not seen before. Stick around to the end for @elitomac on what a muddy Triple Crown might look like… possibly a first.
