Marvin Musquin is the reigning World Motocross Champion of MX 2, racing for KTM. In 2011, he embarked on a new adventure - coming to the USA to race AMA Supercross and Motocross. Marvin has been chosen once again to represent the country of France in the most prestigious Motocross race in the world - the Motocross of Nations, this year in St. Jean d'Angely, France.

I was very impressed with the layout of the entire facility - the pits, the press, the track ... the entire presentation.
Everyone from Glen Helen Raceway - Dr. Bud Feldkamp (track owner) to Lori (track manager), their staff including Carl, Steve, Bob did a great job in representing the United States and California in having one of the greatest motocross tracks in America.
I sat with Dr. Wolfgang Srb, President of the FIM Motocross Commission, and he was very impressed with the preparation of everything as well, including the track, especially with the fact that the event was put on with 60 days notice. He thought everything was top notch, and is excited to have the event come back next year.
