In 2018 I had the honor of attending the 2018 Motocross Of Nations at the legendary Red Bud Track n’ Trail in Buchanan Michigan to handle the rider support & social media content production for Leatt Protectives.
I shadowed Ryan Sipes all weekend to capture as much of the excitement as possible.
Which was pretty easy considering his team mates for the event being SX/Mx icon Kevin Windham & Action Sports Icon Travis Pastrana.
Get a little behind the scenes look at Ryan’s process on race day & how much fun these guys had.
Our Boy Cole Martinez had a crash at the 2018 Daytona Supercross that left him sidelined with a badly broken leg that required some serious hardware.
Before the crash, Cole was turning heads as he had just stepped up to the premiere class and hadn’t missed a main event since doing so.
In Part 1 we checked in with Cole over the healing months of his injury and got to find out all the details on the crash, what injuries he sustained, how the decision to keep racing wasn’t an easy one, and much more.
In Part 2 it is the big first day back on the bike & Cole starts GoPro’n his day first thing in the AM starting with his warm up routine, packing his gear bag, & loading up for the track, all with his toddler watching on.
I met up with him at Pala Raceway to catch up with him and grab some more content for this piece!
Shout out to Cole for snagging some quality shots for this video, & to Leatt Protectives for the opportunity!

Last year after working the ATL Sx for both GoPro & Leatt, I took a short flight to Orlando instead of flying home to Southern California.
I spent the week leading into the Daytona Supercross at Moto Sandbox & Bakers Factory in Florida, shooting with the Athletes Leatt Protectives had on their roster that season.
One of which was Venezuela’s Lorenzo Locurcio.
Lorenzo & his Family are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, & after hearing his story of their journey to the U.S. from his native Homeland, you’ll understand why.
You know what they say. “Dreams only work, if you do.”
One of our favorite pieces with one of our favorite riders to work with.
Michael Leib & The Palmer Brothers put on quite the show at Round 2 of the West Coast Pit Bike Championships that ended with ML getting injured & Kyson Palmer getting disqualified and losing the cash prize.
The 2020 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Series is coming to an end with 450 Rookie & GoPro Athlete Adam Cianciarulo giving it everything he has to win the 450 MX Championship in his first attempt over veteran, and tough as nails bad ass, Zach Osborne.
They once again put on quite the show in 450 Moto 2
You Can See The Green Of AC’s Handguard Left a Mark On Sextons Jersey on the Start.
Christian Craig had the best ride of his Mx season filling for Roczen over at Factory Honda with a solid 4th in Moto 2. Which can been seen from his GoPro POV right here.
CC is so smooth it APPEARS he’s going slow…
Alex Martin & his “Troll Train” have been solid this outdoor Mx season but his mediocre starts really hurt him at Thunder Valley. Still far enough up front to show us how the 250 boys go for it though!
AMart & Osborne are proof you can be 30 and worthy in MX!
I recently caught up with Mike Alessi for Leatt Protectives to get his thoughts on hanging out with & battling old rival Ryan Villopoto, what he’s been up to since Moto Fite Klub, what its like being a Dad, and what keeps him coming back to riding Dirt-Bikes.

Havoc Racing Co. teamed up with Lake Elsinore Motorsports Park to bring you the 4 race West Coast Pit Bike Championships and boy did it pour more fuel on the current Pit Bike craze.
