Thursday night MX readies for start

Motocross series at PIR is long-term success

Portland's Thursday Night Motocross series is set to begin April 13 with its 57th year at Portland International Raceway.

"The Greatest Show on Dirt" has become a Portland tradition, with nearly 200 riders competing weekly under the lights, and over 90 percent of the track can be viewed from the main or surrounding grandstands.
