Team DMX Rules North American International Motorcycle Show

Team DMX took on the North American International Motorcycle show this past weekend with Martin Anderson-Clutz, Sean Bowker, Angie Parker, Arley Orosz, Jason Michael, Cassondra Greene and Jamie West all sporting DMX wear and working our magic. Thanks to help from Parker Brothers KTM, Rocher Husqvarna and Limenine graphics the DMX booth was the ultra hip place to be and be seen at the show. Unfortunately the lighting in the International Center sucked for photos, so squint a little. The show was a great success and a real 'Tour de Force' for DMX. Here's my take on how it looked.

Can you believe enduro riders used to actually race these things?

Go fast, turn left. Think your 450F is the fastest thing on dirt? Think again.

The only way we could get Jay off this Aprilla 450F was with a bucket of cold water.

Angie at work capturing a sea of Orange. KTM had a huge presence at the show.

Ontario off-road icon Lance Matthews accepted a well deserved award on the Hall-Four stage.

Mark Perrin kept himself busy promoting the MX Stars of Tomorrow.

Marty talks to Arley before her Gnarly office chair racing crash.

Cassondra and Jordan Szoke were watching 'Rough Cuts' while my cousin Jamie was watching them both. Marty appears to be wondering just what the hell I talked him into.

Jay tries on the DMX helmet cam. A few minutes later, with help from the Welland County Speedway crew, he crashed through the charm barrier at Hooters.

Not a big motorcycle, just a groovy little motorbike.

There was no shortage of attractive DMX fans.

National E1 Enduro Champ Patrick Beaule brought along his own mini-me to cover for him whenever he went on stage.

'Endurance' author Theresa Ortolani was at the show signing books and telling everyone how awesome DMX is.

It's worth adding that everyone we talked at the show was really happy with how the show went off. One of the moto dads from the "MX Stars of Tomorrow" mentioned that his son had signed hundreds of signatures, which is great exposure for their sponsors. The dealers we spoke to sold more bikes than they expected to, and though the majority of the crowd that came out didn't fit the mold of your stereotypical motohead, we think we won over more than a few converts. It's by reaching out to new audiences that we're going to grow the sport of motocross, and this weekend's show was a fantastic venue for that.
