Title: AMA Red Bull Rookies Cup Pulled Post by: DesmoDiva on January 20, 2009, 07:19:26 AM I just ran across this (http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/557/2225/Motorcycle-Article/Red-Bull-AMA-Rookies-Cup-Cancelled.aspx).
I'll admit I didn't really follow this series much, but after seeing them all at Indy, I was happy to see such a great development program/opportunity for young riders. I was looking forward to following the series more closely this season, but alas it won't happen. :'( Discuss.
