The Way of the Motocrosser by Davey Coombs, Editors of RacerX Illustrated
Book Description: Motocross--which involves competitors navigating
their exotic motorcycles over tortuous terrain, including double- and triple-jumps,
whoops, tabletops, hills, rocks, mud, dust, and anything else that Mother
Nature can throw at them--is massively popular. In the United States alone,
more than 1.2 million fans attended the AMA Supercross and National Motocross
Championship Series in 2002. The sport has also generated an IMAX film,
best-selling video games, and regular programming on ABC and ESPN.
MX: The Way of the Motocrosser is a photo-driven essay that documents
this explosive sport, its major personalities--including Jeremy "Showtime"
McGrath, X Games champion Travis Pastrana, and record-shattering champion
Ricky Carmichael--and the subculture that surrounds the pro circuit. This
extreme trek through the world of motocross will be sought after by every
follower of the sport and offers a great introduction to this rapidly growing
phenomenon for new fans.

Open : A Life in Supercross by Jeremy McGrath
Book Description: Jeremy McGrath is an unlikely champion who
became a legend in Supercross, and helped bring the sport out of the backyard
and into your living room. With a flair and personality all his own, he
dominated the track like no one had before, proved you could win with both
style and substance, and raised the bar on what any single rider could
achieve.
From Jeremy's first entry and initiation into Supercross to his ultimate
rise, Wide Open gives fans a stadium view of his life, on and off the racetrack.
There are great on-track battles with the likes of Jeff Emig, Jeff Stanton,

Motocross Association; overseas competitions; prizewinning purses; and
