Northern California is a hotbed for off-road motorcycles and
Motocross and on Saturday, June 9th, the GEICO AMA EnduroCross
series, presented by Lucas Oil will make a first ever visit to this
region. The Dirt Diggers North Motorcycle Club, which does an
amazing job promoting the opening round of the Lucas Oil Pro
Motocross Championship at Hangtown, will be helping the EnduroCross
team make this first visit to Nor Cal a big success by providing
insight on the area and getting members involved with the
event.
