The Enduropale du Touquet Pas-de-Calais is still scheduled for January 22, 23 and 24, 2021. Pending a little more visibility, the start of registrations is postponed until December.

The Yamaha YZ250, KTM 250SX, Husqvarna TC250 and TM 250MXe are the cream of today’s two-stroke crop. All are modern bikes with state-of-the-art suspension. The only things that are old-school are the sounds of the motors and the faint wisp of blue smoke. The Husky and KTM are related. The TM is the only electric-start, electronic powervalve bike in the class and the Yamaha is the most successful racer in the history of motocross.

Not that it's somethings new but this is account suspension Nr. ?? the past 2-3 month. And for no reasons. Wondering if they are to intellectual limited to tweak the crawler/robot throwing out this false suspensions or they just do not smaller places like ours to participate on their platform. Shame on you #Twitter, you stink seeing how you thread honest and loyal users.

Many people like to draw their own name in the sand on the beach, for example as fun for children or a love greeting. Here in Kent, UK, there is a professional intent behind it. In order to make visitors aware of the dangers on the beaches, vehicles were equipped with tailor-made tires that imprint safety messages on the sand: the emergency number, for example, and the abbreviation of a sea rescue organization. And the automaker will certainly not complain about the advertising space either.

The MXGP of Italy was the first of three events taking place at the Monte Coralli circuit in Faenza that saw Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Jeffrey Herlings take his 90th Grand Prix win in MXGP, while Maxime Renaux of Yamaha SM Action M.C Migliori – J1 Racing took a career first overall win in MX2.

Just a reflection of the times it seems - the world is upside-down cause of #Covid19 and the "attached" economic fall-out of the shut down. So might as well we put a Class1 racer upside-down going into the weekend ;)
Keep your guards up, wear a mask!!
