Frid’Eh Update #2 | Marshal Weltin | Presented by Troy Lee Designs By Billy Rainford Photos by Bigwave Welcome to Week #2 of the DMX Frid’Eh Update this week presented by TLD Canada. Unfortunately, I’m not typing this Update from Oakland, California. Instead, I’m sitting in my office back in London, Ontario, in the cold, snowy weather. I flew out to the first round instead of flying because I just

10 Top Stories of 2021

10 Top Stories of 2021 By Billy Rainford It’s that time of year again when we get to make Top 10 lists out of just about anything we feel like. I grew up as a massive David Letterman fan, so countdowns are something I just can’t stay away from (…from Wahoo, Nebraska…). To be honest, I’ve pulled over to catch the top 2 songs of a countdown while driving across

Monday Morning Coffee

By Billy Rainford I’m sitting here in -8C drinking my first cup of Monday Morning Coffee of 2022. It’s a pretty big Monday because it means I’m supposed to be loading up the DMX Van for another trip south and west for some Monster Energy AMA Supercross! And I will be, but it’s been a really strange lead up to this departure. It seems I managed to pick up a

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | December 2021 By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans! Happy Festivus! You already know I wait all year to use that line!  Haha  The weekend after the Mini O’s we decided to head to Tampa MX for the last round of the I-4 MX Triple Crown Series. Old school per usual as Sunday morning my dad, boyfriend, and I hop in the truck at 3:45am and

Monday Morning Coffee

By Billy Rainford Welcome to the last Monday Morning Coffee before Christmas. Emily and I made our last trip down to my buddy’s restaurant before Christmas, so I’m a little behind on my coffee ramblings this morning. I think, since we’ve got the LRX Alberta Arenacross Championships to talk about in more detail later, I’ll spin a little yarn this week, if you don’t mind. I’m going to tell this

Frid’Eh Update #50 | Julien Benek | Presented by Troy Lee Designs By Billy Rainford Welcome to Week #50 of the DMX Frid’Eh Update this week presented by Troy Lee Designs Canada. Week 50 means we’re very close to the end of another year. We saw a lot of new riders crack the top 52 and make it into the Intro Interview, so that’s always cool. It also means we’ve

Monday Morning Coffee

By Billy Rainford Hello from a sunny and 7C day in London. Emily and I were actually able to get out for a nice cycle yesterday and it looks like we’ll take advantage and head out again today. When I looked ahead at the forecast, my plan was to put the snow tires on Em’s car on one of these nicer December days, but it seems we’re too busy getting

Monday Morning Coffee

By Billy Rainford Hello and welcome to another Monday Morning Coffee to start the week. Now that the Mini O’s are done, we find ourselves heading straight for the Christmas/Holiday break before we hit the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season in full stride. It looks like we’re going to have a few Canadians either competing in the entire series or doing a few races in 2022. Let’s have a look

Call it what you will, give it to God, Buddha, the universe, a higher power, or whoever you believe in.  Maybe you don’t believe in anyone, but have you ever
