New Zealand will head to the Motocross of Nations at Matterley Basin in Winchester, England, on September 23-24 with the same team that saw them finish in 4th positions in 2005.
Josh Coppins, Ben Townley and Cody Cooper will make the trip to the UK with the King brothers Darryll and Shayne both accompanying the team as support and backup.
Over in France the big news is that David Vuillemin, has been left out of the French team. World MX2 Championship leader Christophe Pourcel and his brother S̩bastien will join veteran Yves Demaria in their attempt to capture world glory. In 2005 they finished in second position with the team of Vuillemin, Michael Pichon and Sebastian Tortelli.
