Motocross Gets Big Air And Young Racers At WashMO T&C Fair

After a wet day, Sunday night at the Washington Town & Country Fair was home to the Motocross event that brought in racers of all ages, 5 and up. The younger racers were not quite as flamboyant as their more experienced peers, but they made up for it with their determination to maneuver a tough course.

The expert riders took the course jumps with as much as 10-12 feet of air. There were several times the bikes went down, but everyone got back up and finished their races. There were no injuries beyond the expected bumps and bruises.
