Is Tony going to be there to show up-and-comers how to make friends and influence people? All kidding aside, it sounds like it is for a good cause. Donating time to help riders and the environment is a good thing.

I say riding school...ok that sounds good. Helping enviro wack jobs....not so much. I went to their website and the whole cut down %10 a year on carbon emissions will eventually lead to one thing. No motorized recreation. They should have helped the whales or something.

I would agree 100% with hondarider68 that the goals of most enviromental projects like this are no friend of motorsports. Their are a lot of more noble causes out there that a person could support.

Tony is having a class for the parents on how to push their kids so that some day you can live off of their accomplishments. He will need to find a job in the near future. The Alessi boys are still fun to watch, even outside the top 10, Im sure they can relate to some of the hopefuls out there.

Lesson 1: How to crash repeatedly. Lesson 2: How to let your know-it-all father alienate every team you race for. Lesson 3: Learn when it's time to tell Daddy to shut the **** up!

All proceeds go to the 10:10 project for carbon reduction? Global warming is the biggest scam ever pulled upon the american people. This is the second biggest threat to off-road riding next to land closures and the Alessi's are supporting it. Nice PR. Know that your $75 will go toward a program that seeks to take away your riding away.

The Alessi's never cease to amuse. The 10:10 campaign is a voluntary effort to reduce carbon by 10% each year. So will the Alessi's be doing that with their race bikes? Maybe next year Mike will be on KTM's electric bike instead of the 350? How about giving $3,000 to a cause such as the RiderDown Foundation?

We all are all Carbon based life forms, funny how the Liberals have made "normal" people believe it is "evil". The whole universe is made up of Carbon. Think for yourself instead of listening to Al Gore you dumb bastards.

For the $75 fee, does Tony emotionally abuse your kids, or does he teach you how to do it yourself?
