Round 3 of the MONSTER ENERGY MOTOCROSS NATIONALSPosted by: Paul Rak |Tagged in: Teddy Maier , Paul Rak , Paul Carpenter , Motocross , Monster Energy , Jack Carpenter , Edmonton , Dean Wilson , Colton Facciotti , CMRC , Castrol Raceway , Bobby Kiniry
(Castrol Raceway, Edmonton Alberta, June 21st)
The Pro practice on Saturday really showed the speeds that were possible. Surprisingly, as the day progressed, the Monster Energy Kawasaki Cernic’s Team was nowhere to be found. Finally the familiar faces of Paul and Jack Carpenter and Bobby Kiniry began to appear on track although too late for practice.
The team was not discouraged; only more excited to get the job done.
Following closely and charging hard was Teddy Maier aboard the Leading Edge Kawasaki. Teddy is now sitting pretty in 2nd is looking forward to dominating the rest of the rounds as the series moves east. Up until now Colton Facciotti has won every moto since this stop last year but his winning streak came to an end with fast performances by his teammate Dusty Klatt and Monster Energy Cernic’s team rider Paul Carpenter.

Round 2 “SEND IT” PARTY (CALGARY, AB): Lasers light up SnatchPosted by: Joanna Majcherkiewicz |
This post comes on the eve of the Round 3 party. I’ll blame it on the 6 days it took to wipe the laser dust from my eyes. Snatch Nightclub, whose name can make even an exotic dancer blush, hosted the 2nd round of the SEND IT party series. Snatch is a beautiful big venue, lavishly decorated with rock n’ roll tapestry like motorbikes, snakeskin, leopardskin, zebraskin, and bare skin. And for this night only, a massive striking laser show; with lasers typical of large stadiums and even larger rock star egos. But this headlining act is made up of humble djs that are bestowed with mad skills. They stepped to the plate armed with 45s (7” records courtesy of DJ Vinyl Ritchie) and a donkey mask (courtesy of Mat the Alien). While most of the crowed was dancing feverishly and oblivious to the musical manifestation surrounding them there was a particular loyal audience present just for these guys. Hanging on to every scratch and juggle in particular was a young guy, and his birthday entourage, who turned 18 that exact day and arrived at the venue promptly at 9pm to not miss a beat. Legit! And not missing a beat, or anyone’s gaze, was Calgary’s premier radio personality Miss Ange, Canada’s famous breaks dj Mama Miche and their sassy female entourage. They were dressed like a bowl of festive fruit and summed up the fun dance vibe.
Now both the lasers and motocross schedule are pointed northward. The SEND IT Party, Round 3, unfolds at Union Rock Bar in Edmonton, Alberta. City of Champions, home of the 2nd largest mall in North America and 1st ranked dance floor on Saturday. See you at Castrol Raceway or among the lasers and hasers at Union Hall Nightclub this Saturday, June 20.

Round 1 “SEND IT” Party: Podiums are for Sports Stars and Speakers are for Bar StarsPosted by: Joanna Majcherkiewicz |
The 2009 Monster Energy Motocross Nationals had one of the most anticipated starts in recent Canadian motocross history. Athletes from Hungary, South Africa, United States and the host country collected at the dusty and sun flushed Whispering Pines motocross track. The field was uncharacteristically stacked at the first stop of the tour and made the final podium hard to predict. It was also hard to predict how many speaker dancers there would be for DJs Mat the Alien and Vinyl Ritchie at the Monster Energy “Send It” Party.
![]() That was just a warm up kids. See you in Calgary on Saturday, June 13, 2009. SEND IT PARTY – ROUND 2 is at SNATCH Night Club, not too far from the track. Mat the Alien and Vinyl Ritchie are back. And so is one massive light and sound show. Facebook Event page: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/event.php?eid=90674219474

Round 1 Monster Energy Motocross Nationals, Whispering Pines, Kamloops, BC June 7/09Posted by: Joanna Majcherkiewicz |Words by Paul Rak.
Finally at noon the gates dropped and the 2009 season is under way.
Following closely was Iowa’s Teddy Meier. Riding again for Leading Edge Kawasaki Teddy finished 3 and 2 with a third overall. Great start for both of these Monster Energy riders.
Paul Carpenter on the Monster Energy Cernic’s Kawasaki team finished a comfortable 3 and 5 with a 3rd overall.
Paul is very happy to be in Canada again defending his Championship from 2007. "Today didn't quite go as planned," commented Paul Carpenter after the race. "I didn't ride the race that I thought I could but we still came out with a 3rd overall for the day. I know our team will be ready to go next week and I'm looking forward to battling with these guys again."
