With only a week and a half to go before the Australasian Super X series kicks off, all of the athletes are training hard to get up to race speed and get all their bikes and gear dialled in. Every year the series gains more and more momentum, which results in tougher competition, more public exposure and pressure on the riders. Guys like Robbie Marshall are taking the challenge on, and putting in the extra effort to ensure the best results. Robbie has a perfectly groomed Super X track built on his private property, and has been making some big changes to his routine to prepare. The biggest of those is the switch back to the 250 2-stroke, which he will be riding in the Lites class!! We were lucky enough to head out to Rob's personal track today to check out his form, and his new 250 2 banger, which we think has a real chance of taking Rob to the podium in this years contest!

We also invited along fellow Unit MX team riders Dan Reardon, Ford Dale, Cody Mackie and Luke Arbon to test their skills on Rob's track, and in the process capture some amazing footage of the guys riding great around the tight and technical track.

Injured Unit / Kawasaki Race Team athlete Billy Mackenzie was also on hand for an interview, where he told us all about his dissappointing injury that he sustained while competing in his very first outdoor race in the USA. With a bit of luck Billy will be back within the first few rounds of the Super X series.

Stay tuned for a full video wrap up of the day, including some awesome riding and hilarious interviews! Super X kicks off next weekend and we will have all the details soon.
