Round 14 Minneapolis Supercross | Photo Report
Round 14 Minneapolis Supercross | Photo Report
April 18, 2018
by Dawn McClintock The same storm cell I spoke about in the Canadian Triple Crown AX Barrie report seemed to have wreaked havoc at the Minneapolis supercross round as well. Crazy amounts of snow left people spending extra time in airports with delayed flights. Despite the weather, the show went on and Minneapolis was another round of the Triple Crown format for SX. This again meant a short day for some of our hard working privateers who lay it all on the line to qualify. Let's take a look at some of the action from MN.
