It’s time to grab another Monday Morning Coffee and chat about some of what happened in our sport of Motocross over the weekend. By Billy Rainford Grab yourself another cup and let’s chat about the weekend. I decided to stay local this weekend and miss the Nashville round of the 2024 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series in order to get my first look at a bunch of Canadian Pro riders
By Billy Rainford A look at some of what happened in the world of Motocross over the weekend with a heavy dose of story-telling thrown in… Driving to Boston, Massachusetts, from London, Ontario, for one day of Monster Energy AMA Supercross racing may seem a little bit crazy to the average person. And you know what? It is. It made more sense when I was going to be there for

Be sure to check this Canadian performance company out. You’ll be seeing more and more teams choosing them at the races this season. Well, where do I start?

By Billy Rainford Another Monday, another weekend spent learning how to do things around the house for this pretty major renovation. This time it was popcorn ceiling removal. Yep, we’re hitting all the classic jobs around here. Last week it was removing the hardwood and this week we looked up to the roof and attacked that. I asked last week if you’ve ever done hardwood removal because it was so

Welcome to Week #14 of the DMX Frid’Eh Update brought to you by RP Race Performance. This week off in the 2024 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series could not come at a better time for me. We’ve been talking about doing some renovations at our
By Billy Rainford Sorry I’m late… I didn’t get out on the dirt bike this weekend, but I managed to sneak in a couple bicycle rides. This is the first year in a while that I didn’t head out to California for January and into February so let’s just say my cycling “base” is a little less than what’s it’s been.

By Billy Rainford It’s Monday morning and when I look at the forecast on my phone it tells me the days where the temperature starts with a “-” are in our rearview mirror! We had to deal with some brutal weather here in southwestern Ontario the past couple weeks, but I think we can see the grass at the end of the semi-permafrost! Yesterday, it actually snuck up above zero
Frid’Eh Update #12 | Sebastien Racine | Brought to You by RP Race Performance By Billy Rainford Welcome to Week #12 of the DMX Frid’Eh Update brought to you by RP Race Performance.
