Motocross: Train with Tony

  • 15 years ago
Red Bull Train With Tony is a unique workshop for keen amateur motocross riders, run by reigning MX1 world champion Antonio Cairoli.

Thirty lucky youngsters were handpicked by Cairoli for the latest edition in Montalbano Ionico based on their ‘CV’ and video demonstrating their skills on a bike over the rough stuff. Train With Tony participants are inducted into the ways of competition and shown how to hone their skills with one-to-one tuition from three-time world champion Tony and multiple Italian MX champion Claudio Federici.

"I don’t know how good I'll be as a professor,” Cairoli commented before the first Train With Tony, “but I’m sure that, with the passion for the sport that unites me and my fans, these two days will turn into lessons that are anything but boring."

The first workshop took place in Cremona on November 15, with the latest following on two weeks later.

“Cremona and Montalbano Ionico were two fun days, but we made some progress as well,” Cairoli said afterwards. “Motocross is the only sport where you can see such a direct relationship between riders and supporters. This is why I want to make all of them enjoy the 2010 season – I will do my best!"
