Americans Jeremy McGrath and Travis Pastrana will both appear in England late this year. A promotional team in Britain will run three Supercross events, one in London on September 29-30, another in Sheffield on October 14 and the final in Manchester on November 18. McGrath is the 7 time AMA Supercross Champion and is considered the best in the world at indoor supercross, Pastrana is one of the hungry young lions that competed in 125cc Supercross and pushed the established riders this season. Both of these guys are good. McGrath is so smooth and calculating and can seemingly lower his lap times at will. He is the Michael Schumacher of supercross racign in America. Pastrana is lightning quick and certainly a daredevil on the back of a bike. He has multiple freestyle stunt, state and regional championships on his CV.
if any of you get a chance to check out these guys, give it a go. I guarantee they will put on a great show.
