Southern California traffic is legendary, and almost never in a positive way. For this week in California, though, I loved every minute of it. You know that positive affirmation stuff you see on Instagram? Yeah. During Anaheim week, I don’t have to get stuck in traffic; I get to get stuck in traffic. I will never, ever complain about going to this race or seeing the inner workings of the moto industry. With that in mind, here’s my week doing just about everything you can do in the Monster Energy Supercross world, located for one week almost entirely in Orange County.
We are deeply rooted in Moto—We’ve been here all our lives. Back in 1998 when we turned an underground newspaper into a shiny color magazine, it immediately changed the game with its unprecedented depth of coverage, sense of humor, and access to the sport’s biggest names. Today, our readers know they can go to Racer X Online for all the news, race results, and event coverage they need, and then enjoy even more detail and perspective in the pages of Racer X Illustrated. The mag offers a chance to learn something new on every page and stay connected with the people and personalities that shape our sport—the competitors out on the racetrack, as well as the ones behind the scenes—through our exclusive deep-dive stories and columns.
Our trademark has always been insider knowledge from the experts who are at the races and around the sport. We have long prided ourselves on our unparalleled race reporting and detailed storytelling. We go deep with the riders and teams to provide comprehensive coverage you won’t find anywhere else—all with first-class photography and design. It’s a full education in motocross past, present, and future.
