I haven't seen too much on Motocross on this part of the forum and was wondering if it was as popular as it seems to be in America and France. Sebastian Tortelli, David Vuillemin, and Stephane Roncada all hail from France and are all very fast having proven themsleves in the tough European series and now are all contending in the AMA Motocross series here in America. I don't recall too many other foreign riders other than South African Greg Albertyn. I know Trials are very popular in England, but do they run much offroad circuit racing? How about Down Under?

Motorcross is reasonably popular in Australia. There are regular events both indoor and outdoor. Gary McCoy is an ex-motorcrosser.
Must be why he likes to back a bike in to the corner http://ten-tenths.accelerator.org/ubb/smile.gif
Reasonably popular here in NZ to,i think one of the King brothers from here was racing AMA this year. all the events here are all out door motorcross and enduro.
i think its reasonably popular here in Oz ..but it doesnt get alot of tele so many people dont get to see it...Im not big into it myself as i prefere road racing but it is great to watch on the odd occasion.
