“We are super excited to launch our 2024 schedule,” said MX Sports Event Director, Tim Cotter. “Working with over 60 venues and organizers across the country is a difficult task. We want to thank the organizers and the AMA for their cooperation in this effort. It is the goal to provide a schedule that gives geographic saturation to our rider base as well as working with the best AMA organizers and venues in America.”
“The 2024 Road to Loretta’s features many iconic venues like Budds Creek, Pleasure Valley and High Point Raceway in the Northeast to Washougal, Prairie City and Fox Raceway on the West Coast and many more throughout the United States,” Cotter continued. “We are especially happy to welcome several new venues and organizers to the Loretta Lynn family such as Diamond Back in New York, Next Level 101 in South Carolina, Valley MX in Michigan and Dream Chasers in Montana.
