David Bailey rides again!

With the tragic accident of James Marshall this past weekend I thought it would be appropriate to post some good news on a very related subject. It turns out that one of the greatest ever, David Bailey, was riding on a specially fabricated bike and by watching the video he still has more style than I do.

For an interview with David and a bit more footage - check out the Transworld MX video.

James, we at Universal wish you the best and a speedy recovery.

David, congratulations... it is great to see you riding again!!

Please help the WMXF help James Marshall

The Women's Motocross/Supercross Foundation was created to help those in our industry. It has come time for us to do just that. Log onto www.wmxf.org to donate to James Marshall. All donations will be given to James and his family.

Keep in mind that the WMXF is a non-profit organization, therefor all donations can be used for tax write-offs for your company.

James underwent over 8 hours of surgery last night to remove his C6 C7 vertebrate, come in from both sides and put plates, rods and a bone graph in place. We have heard from James’s mechanic Dave who said James is still recovering from surgery last night and is doing well.

Help out a fellow racer now! Log onto www.wmxf.org and donate!

Amp'd Mobile Supercross San Diego

While walking around the pits at the Amp'd mobile supercross in San Diego we noticed several Universal MX product on bikes and saw Universal monocoque stands give a well deserved rest to the bikes. The most flashy stands we found at the RedBull/KTM 18-wheeler where Mike Alessi's and Nathan Ramsey's factory bikes were stalled on the orange Monocoque stand. Mike (#800) ended up finishing 4th behind Nate (#25) in the Lites class at the Qualcomm stadium. The race was visited by 69.500 fans who all need Universal product now.
