Indiana is oft called the crossroads of America, and if you look at a map of how many interstate highways pass through Indianapolis, it’s kind of true. Less than an hour’s drive west, for the last ten years, Ironman Raceway has been the crossroads of the American pro motocross championship.

Also, it took five, count them five, attempts to upload this stupid video as NBC sports hit me with copyright strikes for the finale footage from last year. Blocked for using coverage of “Millville 2024.” Did Jett ghost ride his bike over the finish to celebrate his first 450 championship at Spring Creek? I don’t remember that. Can a guy show two brothers sharing a celebratory hug? No? Thanks NBC. Appreciate the successive late nights gnashing my teeth in frustration. I have to work in the morning dammit!
