Ash, one of the Metal Mulisha marketing “Guys,” headed out to Mammoth last week with team riders Josh Hansen and Daniel Sani for the annual Mammoth Motocross race. Here’s his report from the weekend:

Last week I got a call from Josh Hansen. When I answered he immediately said “We’re going to Mammy guy!” Josh hooked up a deal to race the Mammoth Motocross on a Factory Troy Lee/Red Bull Honda for the weekend. Next thing you know we’re sitting in a black Escalade on 26” heading up to the 2008 Mammoth Motocross!

Sitting in the passenger seat, we had a lot of catching up to do since Hanny’s recent move back to California from North Carolina. From his departure from Yamaha Joe Gibbs Team to his plans for the 2009 season…Hanny laid it all out. Check the video for more from the man himself.

We got to the mountain Wednesday night. When the sun came up over the snow covered mountain peaks, it was time to hop in the Caddy and meet up with the Troy Lee boys at the track. When we rolled up, Jeff Ward and Josh’s Mechanic were sitting next to his Factory Honda CR450F ready to get the weekend rolling. Josh immediately geared up and charged practice. With his bike already dialed in for the high altitude, Josh left the track with some of the fastest lap times of the day! The Mulisha rider was ready to dominate!

With the sun blazing and a day off until race day, it was time to have some fun. Some highlights included Hanny’s Mini Bike victory at the 1st annual TransWorld Mini Bike Supermoto held in the Village of Mammoth. With a large attendance, his main competition included MM teammate Daniel Sani, Chris Gosselar and some other industry “Yeah Guys.” Other than that there was a session at the skate park, a bar fight where we laced up a 5 local snowboard dorks, and some good laughs with the Rockstar boys, Carey Hart and Sani.

When race day finally arrived, Josh was in 3rd place off the start. He ended up swapping into a tree and cart wheeling his bike into the bushes on the first lap. He was bummed but didn’t let the bad luck bring him down and finished the race with some hard laps. Next year Josh will be racing the Supercross Lites Class. He is pissed and has some big things lined up for the ‘09 season. So look out for Hanny in the Summer X games competing in the Moto X Racing event with something to prove. Check out the video clip and some pics from the weekend below.

Metal Mulisha celebrated the 4th of July the only way we know how…partyin’ wide open poolside!

Check out more photos of the debauchery in the photo gallery!

Potter, Fitz, Fluff and Ox (sounds like a group of confused pornstars, huh!?) were riding yesterday down at the Del Mar Fair near San Diego, CA. Fitzpatrick and Ox will be down there riding demos until July 6th, so if you’re in there area get over there and check ‘em out!

Last week Deegan made the long trip to South Africa for the Masters of Dirt South Africa event. Not a bad excuse to get outa town and see friggin’ Africa while doing a little riding on the side! Here are a few photos Deegs sent after the trip…oh yeah, and he ended up winning the event too!

Deegs poses with a giraffe and a Bear!
