Just like that we close the door on another supercross season. As our athletes move on to prepare for the outdoors or are healing from injury, we take a look back at a tough season with plenty of highs and lows. No question it was an exciting supercross season and leaves us only wanting more. Congratulations to all of the FXR athletes who slugged it out on the track and here's a look at some of them who dug in for one last shot at Sam Boyd Stadium this weekend.

Blake stylin' the 'stache for Vegas.
German rider Uli Stocker putting in a heater for qualifying.
Is that Nick Wey eyeing up Blose's lit kit?
Bradley Taft would take 17th in his heat and round out his night with 17th in the LCQ.
Jerry Robin took 10th in his heat and had some bad luck with a DNF in the LCQ.
Justin Starling looked strong all day and got the job done with a 3rd in the LCQ to take him to the main.
Chris Blose had a solid finish in his heat taking 8th place.
Dylan Merriam would grab 14th in his heat race.
Bubba Pauli took 19th in his heat race and 10th in the LCQ.
AJ Catanzaro finished 15th in his heat race.
Off the start for the 250s.
Dylan Merriam would wrap things up in Vegas with 10th in the LCQ.
Chris Blose had a nasty tangle with a tough block in the main event that took him down hard.
Blose would finish his night early with a fractured radius but on a more positive note, he rounded out the series with 9th overall. Well done Chris and heal up soon!
Justin Starling had a solid ride in the main and finished in 16th place.
Set backs with injuries earlier in the season, Starling persevered and would take home 14th overall for the series.
Great season guys!
