I want to hear back from you guys - all of you guys - on what you want to see (more of) on the website.
Video, right? Working on it. But tell me what you want to see in those videos. Motocross races, off-road races, bike tests, shoot-outs, world gp rounds, product reviews, etc. I know you want to see everything but give me specifics so I know what's most important to you.
There have been some unique events posted on the main site. How did you like those?
We've had some first impressions up. I assume you guys like those. Am I right?
Do you want to see more race coverage? Of course you do. What do you want to see. Motocross? Working on it. What other series interest you?
Did you guys read Destry Abbott's race reports? I think those are really cool. Tell me what you guys think.
Tell me how to make your website better for you. "Help me help you." I'm sure GoonRider can name that quote, how many others can?
Change is still slowly coming to the site, and now is the time to influence that change.

First, I think you’re doing a hell of a job. Things are looking better and better, thanks.
I would like to see articles on all the off road events. H&R, HS, GNCC, WORCS, BITD, SCORE, Enduro, Six Day, you get the idea. Maybe even a trial or two, Dakar and of course the staples MX, SX, AX. Anything to do with dirt, off road, racing.
Video is cool, even though I can’t down load them or watch them sometimes, I think the “kids” would like more.
I like the unique events because they are different. Different is good.
I like the bike tests and comparisons. But I’d like to see more than just the 5 big dogs. There are other bikes out there and they have different models. Husky, GasGas, Aprilia, TM, ATK, I even see where Maico is importing again. (not holding my breath for a good bike though)
Race coverage is always good. I like the reports from the pros too, they always have a different perspective about a race or what went on.
I know that manpower, resources and time are limited for you guys, so you can’t do everything. But what I think would be real neat would be to have an average Joe, off of dirtrideronline.com of course, get to help out (ride) on tests. I’m sure we could figure it out on how to make it work. Or maybe have a whole crew from the board come and do a test. I don’t know how that would work with out giving Jimmy a coronary, but the average guy would know how the average guys thought of a bike anyway. Well it’s just a thought. (I think it would be real cool to bring the Aprilia’s in and run a WORCS)
Well, I don’t know where the quote is from, sorry, but I’ve heard it before. It’ll come to me I’m sure. Hope this helps.

What SOV said. I like the coverage that you have been doing some mx and sx race results would be cool.

how about a health corner on the site where you could discuss different ways to train, diet, and recover from injuries. as far as videos, I think the bike tests and shoot outs would be great. I think it would be a hit because we will see not only the test riders in the video but also get to see some of the staff from DR. kinda excited about this one.

I'd like to see some video of product tests. Seeing how the product is used/installed/performs can help people decide if its worthwhile to them.
Having some video clips from bike tests would be great as well.
I would like to see a section where questions can be submitted and if selected have an appropriate "expert" give an answer. Could be a factory mechanic for a tech question, a trainer for a injury or health question; maybe a top rider for a riding question. To keep managable and prevent inappropriate ones have the questions emailed; and selected ones then appear with the answer.
