The AMA Supercross series is flat out awesome and is hard to beat in terms of the excitement per dollar ratio, and this weekend they were in San Francisco at AT&T park for round #4 of the 2010 season. What’s more is that courtesy of Live 105, tickets in the left field bleacher seats were only $10.53! Unfortunately two of the top riders didn’t make the San Francisco round, those being Chad Reed (I’m not really a fan of his anyway) and James Stewart (what a bummer!). But the fact that those two weren’t there didn’t seem to matter much as the racing in both the Lites class and Main classes was close and exciting. We sat out in the bleachers, bundled up for warmth and happy it wasn’t raining, and took in the night’s events. Ming and I showed up a bit early and naturally started the night off with a few beers, some nachos, chicken fingers, garlic fries, etc. Joe arrived just in time for the start of the first Lites qualifying heats, and the three of us sat riveted as we watched Trey Canard take top honors in the Supercross Lites class and after an awesome race we saw Ryan Villopoto take the checkered flag in the Supercross class. Good times were had by all and I know that Ming and I are already thinking about once again making the trip out to Las Vegas to see the final round in May!
Joe, Ming and yours truly
