NOVEMBER 30, 2005
By Brett Dailey
The big day is almost here. World Supercross hits Toronto this Saturday December 3rd and it looks like Canada will get first glimpse of the 2006 Ricky Carmichael, Chad Reed, James Stewart showdown. Lucky us! Do not miss this race!
With so many things going on this weekend and the huge number of posts on our site about the World Supercross rounds in Toronto and Vancouver even I am having a hard time trying to find the discount coupons and other information (my brother and I bought $600 worth of tickets last night).
So, here is a list of critical things for this weekend to make sure that you get the most out of your Supercross experience. Look for a similar update before the Vancouver Supercross on December 10th.
Press Conference:
Log on to supercross.cc.com tomorrow at 2:00 PM (EST) for a LIVE press conference featuring Ricky Carmichael and Chad Reed. Click here for more information.
