I've seen various guesstimates on here and on social media that the attendance at this years MXoN will be off the scale, some claiming 100,000 plus!
but what do you think a realistic figure will be ???
They are saying every hotel/motel is sold out in a 70 mile radius and all the Gold and Silver VIP packages are sold out.
Is the attendance at the July 4th ish AMA National clouding the issue? How many of the drunken fans, lining the track screaming Redddddd-Buddddd back in July are actually hardcore motocross fans?
I do hope for Tim and Amy Ritchie they get a massive turnout but feel the true figure will be in the 38,000 to 45,000 range at best.
Sadly I can't be there this year as got a house sale going through around that time but hope it is another true classic and best wishes to every team and their fans who go!

The Shop
Viewing is going to an issue I’m guessing. Have they built the new grand stands by the leap yet?

Honestly I cant see it being more than 55,000 because you wont get that many Europeans flying over as people still do't have a lot of money to be wasting like that.
