Motocross Of Nations To Be Held In The US for 2010 at the Thunder Valley Motocross Park facility, just outside metro Denver

Youthstream is pleased to announce that the 2010 Red Bull FIM
Motocross of Nations, will be run at the Thunder Valley Motocross Park
facility, just outside metro Denver, in Lakewood, Colorado on
September 25 & 26.

 Only three years after the amazing success of Budds Creek, Maryland,
that marked the last professional motocross appearance of the
legendary Ricky Carmichael, the Red Bull FIM Motocross of Nations will
be back in the heartland of team USA, the winningest team of the last
two decades.

 Over 30 countries will send their three best riders to compete for the
coveted ‘Chamberlain Trophy’ – the equivalent of ‘Olympic Gold’, as
the Red Bull FIM Motocross of Nations is also known as "The Olympics
of Motorcycling".

 2010 will mark the 64th edition of this event, and this will be the
third time it’s ever been held in the USA, following this year’s
Franciacorta, Italy edition.

 For this exciting return to the US soil Youthstream teams up with
Thunder Valley Promotions, the company widely recognized best
motocross organizer in the country for a strong and promising
partnership.

 A statement from Mr. Giuseppe Luongo, President of Youthstream:

 “We are extremely proud to bring the prestigious Red Bull FIM
Motocross of Nations to the Denver area in 2010. In 2007, we brought
the event to Maryland, and it was one of the most successful
motorcycle races ever accomplished in the USA.

 In 2008, we promised the entire world, both fans and industry, that we
would return the event to the USA on a regular basis. Now, in 2009, we
are glad to announce that we have fulfilled that goal, with the 2010
Red Bull FIM Motocross of Nations being held in Lakewood, Colorado the
last weekend of September.

 We have communicated with riders, teams, industry, and fans. We have
analyzed every aspect in choosing the proper venue – the
infrastructure, the track promoter, the hotel availability, things to
do in the city before & after the event, airport & access for fans
that will attend from all over the world. Colorado and Thunder Valley
Motocross meet all those standards and more.

 I would like to thank both Mr. David Clabaugh, the owner of Thunder
Valley Motocross Park, and Youthstream USA General Manager Mr. Mario
Marini. Together, they have worked very hard to make this event a
reality. I would also like to thank the FIM and AMA for their support
in making this happen.

 Together, we now have much work to do to make this the biggest & best
motocross event ever in the USA, and quite possibly the world.”

 Dr. Wolfgang Srb, President of the FIM Motocross Commission (CMS) said:

 “This is a win - win - win situation for everybody. The biggest and
most important Motocross race in the world returns to the USA, only a
few years after the successful event in Budds Creek. This is brilliant
news for the Motocross community and for all the fans.

 “The Red Bull FIM Motocross of Nations is the showcase of our sport
and deserves to be staged on the best venues. Thunder Valley Motocross
Park ranks around the top venues worldwide and will be a first class
facility. Congratulations to all who made this most important deal
possible!”
