I didn’t feel like I got my entire fix of 2008 MX of Nations information in print or on the web, so this baby went straight into the player. The video is distributed by Duke USA, but the company is

When Shoei came out with an all-new helmet, it was not kidding around. The lid’s fresh look and feature-stuffed package make it like a fully-loaded new vehicle. If you’re really interested in the details, I suggest you hit up the

I’m a sucker for a cool little tool, and they don’t come much littler and more interesting than the Tube Snake from M.V. Enterprises, better known as www.mylittletool.com.Honestly, I don’t even need the Tube Snake. Changing a tire is pretty

As a contact lens wearer, I am obsessed with goggles. When I ride I don’t blink nearly enough, so any “wind” over my eyes will quickly dry my contacts and they’ll pop out. At the same time, poor venting will

I’ve always been fascinated with the Erzberg Rodeo. After all, how do you really explain punishing yourself past the point of collapse while simultaneously ruining a $6000-plus motorcycle? Thanks to Throttle Entertainment, the new Tougher Than Iron DVD brings fans

I’m always on the lookout for the perfect chest protector. I don’t like the feel of the classic “clamshell” over-the-jersey style, but I also never want to find myself injured wondering if I’d skimped on protection. I thought my only

If I told you that you could be outfitted in a complete set of gear for $260, including a gear bag to carry it all, you’d think I was nuts. Well, I was pretty suspicious of gear that could be

Every once in a while I come across something and ask, “Why didn’t I think of that!?” Such is the case with the ZAC Speed RP-3 Exotec Protector pack system.Participating in the HYR 24 Hours of Glen Helen as part

TCX isn’t new by any means; the boot just received a name change since its old name, Oxtar, was too similar to another popular boot maker. While TCX is getting the new brand established, the company decided it was time

I’m a chest protector guy. Or roost guard, roost deflector or whatever you’re supposed to call them. A lot of the cool MX guys think that makes me a kook for wearing one, but I like to be a protected

The EVS Shorty gloves are short and to the point. As such, they have inspired me to write this test in a similarly laconic manner. The gloves cost $25. Per pair. Jimmy Lewis didn’t like the Shorty at first. I

We all wish we could be the fastest rider at the track. It’s this quest that has flooded the marketplace with all kinds of riding-tip videos and instructional books. These self-help guides can be an easy way to learn the
