Walton - The big show is here!

 

The Monster Energy Motocross Nationals will see the end of the 2010 season in the usually subdued Southwestern Ontario town of Walton this Sunday. But the entire week, known as the Walton TransCan Grand National, is anything but subdued. Hundreds of amateurs kick off the event with opening ceremonies on Tuesday evening, to be followed by four days of racing which culminates with the final round of the Pro Nationals on Sunday.

 

With an annual pilgrimage of more than 900 competitors, and spectator turnout that have been estimated up to 20,000, the Walton TransCan Grand National has, without a doubt, earned the right to be called Canada’s “Motocross Classic”. Not surprisingly, Walton is a magnet for hundreds of riders from across Canada and the United States. Riders from Europe, South Africa as well as Mexico have graced the track.
