    As 2011 winds up and we look forward to 2012, I thought I would share some of my observations of 2011. Like any year, we have had highs and lows. Motocross isn't a cheap sport to be involved in. Motocross is down in attendance, no two ways about it. Tracks are feeling the crunch, race promoters are struggling, track owners are hurting, and shops are barely afloat.
