  • Gallery: Loretta Lynn's, before the Action

With exactly seven days to go before the first starting gate drops at Loretta Lynn's Ranch for the 34th Annual Rocky Mountain ATV/MC AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship, we took a quick track track-walk on Tuesday afternoon to see how the ranch was shaping up. Incredibly, there are already quite a few families and industry friends set up and camping, cooking out, and enjoying their summer before the big race. Here's how the place looks—the proverbial "before" shots—with one week to go.
