Much blood and treasure has been expended in the ageless struggle for supremacy between California and Nevada, and this weekend the latest chapter in the saga unfolds at Harrah's Rincon Casino, San Diego in the form of the FMX Team Energy Cup.  Four Nevada FMX riders will be taking on four from California in a competition that is if not drenched in the trappings of a premiere affair, at least looks to be original in its format.  


Team CA is (slated to be): Adam Jones, Mike Mason, Brian Foster, Matt Buyten Team NV is (slated to be): Jeff "Ox" Kargola, Cam Sinclair, Blake "Bilko" Williams, Rob Adelberg This event marks the beginning of the 2009 ASA Action Sports World tour.
