THE
COVER
After winning his second consecutive Superbike race at Pikes Peak, we'd guess it's
one of Eric Bostrom's favorite tracks. Photo by Brian J. Nelson. Ricky Carmichael
picked up right where he left off at the end of last season by winning both motos of
the AMA National Motocross opener at Hangtown. Photo by Steve Bruhn. Cycle
News off-road assistant editor Brendan "Junior Mint" Lutes has ridden the new KIM
250 SX-F, and his first impressions are on page 38. Photo by Blake Conner.
