After a week off from racing, the Lucas Oils Motocross Championship returned to Spring Creek MX in Millville, Minnesota where racers were greeted by an amazing track (many said the best its been in years) and excited fans. The Rockstar/Makita/Suzuki camp made their presence known by taking the wins in both classes as well as a third overall in the 450 class (Michael Byrne).

It’s Monday, and it’s back to the grind, but you might as well start it off with some moto. Be sure to check out the highlight video too, if you haven’t already.
