After a very competitive 2009 motocross season, which saw Honda Red Bull Racing's Ashley Fiolek take the championship, MXSports announces the 2010 Women's Motocross (WMX) schedule.

The 2010 AMA Women's National Motocross Championship series will visit two new venues in 2010: RedBud & Spring Creek.

"The action in the WMX Class during the 2009 season exceeded all of our expectations. Fans could always count on riders like Ashley Fiolek and Jessica Patterson to provide some of the best racing on the schedule and thanks to the commitment of our title sponsor Lucas Oil, they were showcased on national television. By introducing two new events for 2010, we expect to continue broadening the national exposure by visiting new parts of the country" said Davey Coombs, vice president of MXSports.

The WMX season will kick-off at the season-opening round from Hangtown on May 22 and will conclude Labor Day weekend from Steel City on September 4.

King of Genoa 2009 - Justin Brayton!

Team San Manuel L & M Racing Yamaha rider James Stewart, the defending AMA Supercross Champion, will withdraw from competing in the upcoming Genoa Supercross (Genoa, Italy) and Brisbane Super X Supercross (Brisbane, Australia) due to medical reasons.

James was forced to withdraw from the third day of racing the recent Bercy Supercross (Paris, France) and forfeit his potential win as a result of contracting a severe case of food poisoning. After returning back his home in Florida, James took minimal time to recover before getting back to training and testing for the upcoming races and 2010 AMA/FIM Supercross season.

After recent medical evaluation, his doctor and L & M medical staff found his immune system to be dangerously compromised and James was advised by his doctor and team that he should discontinue any strenuous activity, and not travel out of the country at this time.

When asked about the decision, James had this to say: "I am really bummed about not being able to race in Italy and Australia. I've had such a great experience racing internationally. The fans are incredible and the race organizations really go out of their way to support me. I really wish I could still go, but after talking with my doctors and team it's not in my best interest to jeopardize my health before the upcoming 2010 AMA Supercross season starts."

Said Larry Brooks, Team San Manuel Manager "At this time, James will be focusing on getting healthy and preparing to defend his AMA Supercross Series championship title. Taking time to improve his health and well-being is our first priority."

James will continue to undergo medical evaluation and refrain from any kind of strenuous training activity until his doctor and medical staff advise him that he is fit to resume.

This is the new, highly anticipated 2010 KTM Factory 350. Officially, it's designated as the "350 SX-F Factory Racing".

Why is it highly anticipated? It's the first 'real' machine with a 350cc (cubic centimeters) motor designed specifically for supercross, motocross, and off-road racing.

Who are some of the names of rides you might know that will be riding this bike in 2010? MX1 World Motocross Champion Tony Cairoli, and Mike Alessi.
