Racing Is Entertainment

A bagger and a racetrack are not two things that really seem to go together with a positive outcome. Or at least not until 2020, when MotoAmerica hosted the King Of The Baggers invitational exhibition race at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. Purists scoffed at the concept and MotoAmerica took a lot of heat, but they pulled it off, gaining a massive amount of exposure and more

The country with the worst motorcycle death rate in the world

Posted on By sNawaWebs.ADV

The white-tiled floor of Togo’s largest trauma unit is awash with the blood of motorcycle riders.
