ESPN The Mag just came out with The Body Issue where they feature naked athletes doing their thing. So ladies, pick up the mag and check out the Mulisha guys poppin’ wheelies in all their nakedness glory.
The nominees have been announced for the 1st Annual TransWorld Motocross Awards presented by Rockstar Energy Drink, and it’s no surprise that there are a ton of Metal Mulisha riders on the ballot! The winners will be named October 8, 2009 at the Joint at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas the day before the 2009 U.S. Open begins.
The Readers Choice Award is probably the most prestigious of the awards because it all up to you, the fans, to vote for your favorite rider of the year. It goes with out saying, but I’ll say it anyway, get over there and vote for your favorite Metal Mulisha rider!

Transworld Motocross Dirt Days at Milestone MX Ranch (directions) is coming up on September 12-13. You better make sure to cruise out to ride, get some Mulisha gear at our booth and meet the riders. Oh yeah, and there will be Metal Mulisha FMX demos on each day, with autograph signings after each show!
Well, Red Bull X Fighters didn’t quite go as planned. Twith got taken out by young Levi in the quarters because he messed up on a cordova flip. Without the mistake Twitch definitely would have been heading to the semi’s and the finals. Oh well, not bad for not riding after X Games and just coming straight to London!
Robbie Maddison made it to the semi finals. He beat Rebeau in the quarters. Unfortunately Rebeau cased the back side of a landing on a flip after getting a flat front tire. Rebeau is fine other than the big hole in his bottom lip. Next up for Maddo was Nate Adams. It was a close call, but Adams beat out Maddo and eventually won the event.
Sucks the boys didn’t finish better, but they rode like bad asses and all in all it was a good event.
Sorry for lack of cool photos. Was mostly filming video for the next web vid and the upcoming Metal Mulisha DVD…that’s right, the new Metal Mulisha DVD is in the works!
