It’s hard to believe the it’s been three years since Kourtney Lloyd took Team Canada over to Italy for the 2016 MXON’s. Up until then, Team Canada had never experienced a MXON event like they did that year at one of the most famous tracks on the planet. They stayed at an Italian villa, had a chef to cook their meals and their own bikes to ride, and three highly motivated riders that were all looking forward to racing on the Maggiora track. Other than the accommodations and the local scenery, the highlight of the weekend had to be the ride of Kaven Benoit as he let the entire motocross world know who he was. It was an unforgettable weekend and one that all of Canada could be proud of. With the 2019 MXON’s this weekend in Assen, let’s look back at one of Canada’s most successful days on the world motocross stage. Here are some James Lissimore photos from Maggiora in 2016.
