2006 AMP/GFI Winter Series Kicks Off this Weekend
For motocross racers, the holidays are a time to rest, eat too much
and hopefully, find lots of moto goodies under the tree. Whether you
need to burn off some of those calories, put some Christmas presents to
good use, or both, the 2006 AMP/GFI Winter Motocross series is the
place to do it. Both northern and southern California have full 5-round
racing schedules starting as early as this weekend.
