Round one of the third annual Road to Mammoth (RTM) qualifier series proved to be a successful day of motocross racing last weekend at Competitive Edge Motocross Park in Hesperia, Calif. Bishop and Mammoth locals arrived at the high desert motocross park to join the many motocross families that have followed the Mammoth Motocross spirit throughout the years.

With a new Racer X Illustrated team partnership along with Monster Energy, the six round RTM event series allows racers to get a head start on entries into the 2012 Monster Energy Mammoth Motocross which will be held this year from June 22-July 1.

Round two will continue at Porterville MX in Porterville, Calif. on March 11. For more information on the RTM series visit www.mammothmotocross.com or 2xpromotions.com.
