Thor MX Presents The Friday Ten

This week’s Friday Ten is brought to by Thor MX Gear. Thor MX Gear is worn by top riders such as Cooper Webb, Jess Pettis, Jacob Piccolo, as well as Cole Thompson. Thor MX Gear is distributed exclusively in Canada by Parts Canada.

After a solid opening round in Minneapolis, our Canadian boys are looking forward to Round 2 of the 250SX East Series this weekend in Arlington.

Last week FXR Racing released their very cool-looking 2022.5 Revo Legend LE Gear and it looked great on their riders in Minneapolis.

The Stark VARG is the first electric motorcycle to be the performance leader within its category. The new 80hp 110kg electric motocross bike is looking good and could be a game changer.

Moments after the checkered flag was waved on last weekend’s Daytona 500, construction began on the track for the upcoming Daytona SX. Tickets are still available for the most famous SX on the planet.

These days nothing is official until it’s announced on Social Media. So it was great to see this week on Instagram that Shawm Maffenbeier and MX101 Yamaha Team are officially back together for 2022.

After a few weeks of relaxation, Cole Thompson announced that he is in the process of rehabbing his injured shoulder and should be back on the bike in six weeks. Heal up Cole!

Multi-time Canadian WMX Champion Eve Brodeur debut her new Callus/ GASGAS collaboration this week and does it ever look good. Eve is excited to defend her 2021 WMX Championship this coming summer in the Triple Crown Series.

With AC9 out with a knee injury, unfortunately, the next top 450SX rider to go down with an injury is Aaron Plessinger. AP7 crashed this week while practicing and broke his wrist. He will most likely miss the remaining rounds of SX.

After having to cancel the opening round of the 2022 FIM Motocross World Championships in Great Britain last weekend due to bad weather. The gate will now drop this weekend in England at the famous Matterley Basin circuit.

Along with defending champion Jeffrey Herlings, another top MXGP rider missing this weekend is Standing Construct Factory Husqvarna Racing’s Paul Jonass. Earlier this week Jonass had surgery on his arm and won’t be back on the track until Round 2 in Italy on March 6th.
