The 2011 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship kicks off this weekend with the Hangtown Motocross Classic held just outside the California state capital of Sacramento. This 12 round series is the heart of the sport and if it is anything like this year’s Supercross series we are in for an exciting summer!

Lites riders Matt Lemoine and Nick Myers will be representing Moose Racing throughout the summer months and they will be joined by racing legend John Dowd at a handful of events. Also keep an eye out for off-road title contenders Josh Strang and Justin Soule to make an appearance or two towards the end of the season.  

Speaking of Lemoine, after wrapping up an impressive sixth place overall in the Lites East Supercross class, we took a few minutes to chat with the privateer rider. You can view the video by clicking below.

Samples of the all-new 2012 Moose Racing gear have begun to arrive and 2011 AMA Arenacross champion Tyler Bowers was debuting the M1 gear at the final Supercross race in Las Vegas. Check out the video below for a sneak peek at the racewear that will be hitting the dealership floors later this fall.
