Michael Byrne, 450 Supercross, Muscle Milk/ Toyota/ JGRMX
Byrner, a three time Australian National Champion, came into this season without a ride. He started out racing the California rounds on a borrowed KX 450. When JGRMX's Josh Grant got hurt Byrne was quickly added to their roster. Byrne has more than 10 years of experience as a professional racer and has been a solid performer for the team this season. He finished 13th at the last round in Indy and sits 12th in points.

Erick "Big E" Bartoldus, Supercross- Four Legends
On February 28 (1 pm EST) a new show will air on CBS Sports featuring the most dominant riders in Supercross. The careers of Jeremy McGrath, Ricky Carmichael, Chad Reed, and James Stewart will be the main focus as the show defines the sport and how it became the greatest off-road motorcycle series of all time. It will take you behind the scenes of each rider's career and what they endured to become legends. This one-hour show, produced by the same folks that created Motocross Files, has been much anticipated and may change every viewers opinion on their favorite or not so favorite riders. Big E has been involved in the inner circle of Supercross for years and was instrumental in the production of this program.

Trey Canard, Supercross West Coast Lites, GEICO Powersports Honda
Last weekend at Indianapolis Trey lined up for his first ever 450 Supercross race to fill in for the injured Red Bull Honda Racing's Andrew Short. He showed impressive speed qualifying 8th in timed practice. He had some mishaps and didn't finish the race but proved he has the speed and skill set to run in the 450 class full time when he is finished with the 250 class. Currently the West Coast Lites class is on break and Trey has won two rounds this year and sits second in points.
