Everything you need to know for the San Diego Supercross
Round 2 of the Monster Energy Supercross season takes place this Saturday night at Petco Park in San Diego.
Coming off of his win at Anaheim, Ken Roczen will be aiming to carry his momentum into Saturday’s event, which will play host to the fourth annual Military Appreciation Night.
Riders usually sport military-themed liveries at the event. Following the race, several pieces of gear worn during the event will be auctioned off, with all proceeds going to benefit the USO San Diego. Since the program’s inception in 2014, the Military Appreciation Race has raised over $100,000 in direct support of various military service organizations in San Diego.
Unfortunately, one top rider who will not be on hand at the event is Trey Canard, who sustained an injury in Anaheim.
