Motocross is a young sport that dates back to the late 1940s and early 1950s. Originating in France circa 1948, it has since made the leap across the Atlantic to the United States. Of all the places you might expect to find freestyle motocross shows, Wisconsin is an unlikely hotbed that features some of the greatest motocross in the country. - Freestyle motocross (FMX) cyclist Travis Willis is the mind behind Team FMX. His specialty is motorcycle stunt shows and though he is not based in Wisconsin, his troupe frequently brings their show to the Green Bay area. Featuring a mobile FMX ramp that travels the north, central, and southern regions of the country, Team FMX has made appearances on popular TV channels such as ESPN, Fuel TV, The History Channel and The Speed Channel. The organization offers a fan-friendly experience, filled with exciting and professionally run stunt biking. There is also a question-and-answer session after the event, and guaranteed fan interaction where autographs are signed. As of 2010, to book an event, Travis requests that you send an email to teamfmxINFO@aol.com. Pricing will depend on the riders and date requested.
- For Wisconsin freestyle motocross shows that are state specific, you may wish to check out Fantasy Moto. Fantasy Moto promotes competitive FMX events all across the state, specializing in three key areas: Tigerton, Wittenberg and Eagle River. Fantasy Moto isn't family motivated, but it is certainly family appropriate. Specializing in competition rather than stunt riding, Fantasy Moto hosts the Northern Cup Motocross Series, which has become a staple in Wisconsin. Featuring over a half-dozen competitions per year, information about how to register for competition or how to find the next sponsored event is available from the Fantasy Moto website, fantasymoto.com.
- Not only is Pine Ridge Raceway a great place to see some of the state's best competitive freestyle motocross shows, it is also the perfect place for up-and-coming freestyle bikers, from beginners to amateurs, to learn their craft. Pine Ridge Raceway features two to three races per year open to entrants as young as 4 years of age. It is a union of family and competition that makes for great all-ages entertainment. If you want to find freestyle motocross shows that place the focus on education, safety and sportsmanship, stop by Pine Ridge Raceway to register or watch. Don't forget to stop by the Pro Shop if you're interested in gear or souvenirs.
