  • Racer X Films: The Untold Story of Cairo, Georgia: Part 1

For more than a dozen years, Cairo, Georgia has filled the entry list as the most popular town in amateur motocross, with more entries at Loretta Lynn's hailing from that small spot on the Florida/Georgia line than any other. But while Cairo has provided the training ground for famous residents like Millsaps, Carmichael, Barcia and more, it was still a town very much at odds with the sport. In part one of our in depth look at Cairo, hear the story of how the town nearly pushed the tracks away completely--and you can find all the the data behind the tracks, the town, and the economic study that proved the sport's worth in the June 2016 issue of Racer X Illustrated, on sale now.
