Starting this thread to share/assist locals plan and meet-up at the upcoming 2010 Red Bull FIM Motocross of Nations at Thunder Valley Motocross Park facility, just outside metro Denver, in Lakewood, Colorado on September 25 & 26.

Who's going? (I'm trying my best to). Here's a great Google Satellite view of the track and area.


Updated Announcement: TEAM USA. (Dungey, Canard, & Short)

I'm trying to make a week trip out of this on street bike. The plan is to trailer the bike to TX state line then ride from there into Colorado. I'm thinking opportunity at Pike Peak while heading that way too. Camping one night then hotel another if the weather permits. That's the plan anyways...

Johnny, if you ride up, try to make a scenic route involving Hwy 160, 50 and 115. Also, pack some warm close for the Peak. I went up there the first week in August, when it was 90+ in the Springs. It was snowing and cold as h#$% up top. But the view was well worth it.

And Steve, you gonna do any street riding while up there?

No not that trip Josh. Maybe some day when I have a license I will do a trip like that, ha...
Hope all is well with you. Love the 950. Fixing to head out for a little road trip this morning with Paul, and Bobby N. Weather's been great here in the mornings lately, so going to take advantage of the cool temps.

Stay in touch.

Josh, That worry's me about the cold (yikes). The Avg weather said low 40°F to 70°F high that time of year (per Colorado Springs.) I know Pikes Peak will be the exception due to the altitude.

Stage 1 Route - Truck & trailer

Stage 2 trip route if all goes according to plans - Bing Map
