The final round of the outdoor nationals were at Pala Raceway and it was an excellent day of racing.   Two championships were still on the line even though Dean Wilson had clinched the 250 class.  The 450 title was claimed by Ryan Villopoto while the WMX #1 plate was awarded to Ashley Fiolek.   Check out the gallery below for photos from the day.

The second half of the outdoor MX season started off at Millville, MN at the Spring Creek MX track.   The day before the national brought a deluge of rain with over 5″ falling in the areas surrounding the track.  Once the rain stopped the humidity and heat crept in.  The high heat index along with the mud took its toll on the riders and bikes in the morning practice and first motos, but the day was filled with great racing in all three classes.  The big story of the day was Chad Reed’s crash, which by now everyone has seen or heard about.  To be pitched off the bike in mid-air, fall 25′ back to the ground at race speed, it was a miracle that he got up, cleared his head and breathing and kickstarted his bike to overcome a big deficit to the rest of the field and eventually finish 14th.   The day was one in which legends of the sport are made.   Complete race coverage can be found at the Transworld MX Race Report.  To see photos from the practice and racing, scroll down to the gallery below.
