Motocross, California State Fair 2015 |
Due to California's severe and ongoing drought, the lagoon (large pond) at
Cal Expo has been drained, leaving an empty, concrete basin. What better use during the
State Fair than as a location for some daredevil stunt motocross riding?
There are three sessions each day of the fair: 3 p.m., 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. I caught the show at 7 p.m. yesterday, before the Led Zepagain show. Fast-moving bikes, high in the air, a low but very-bright sun, and a large, crowded audience.

The riders do some OMG stuff on these bikes: up a steep ramp, fly through the air, spin the bike or stand up on the seat or do a handstand or some other gymnastic move, land safely on the down-ramp, then
go back around to do it all over again...
