Charli Cannon, a four-time Australian motocross champion, is setting her sights on the WMX Championship in the United States for the upcoming season. This year marks a significant milestone in the sport as it will be the first time that all six rounds of the WMX Championship are televised, thanks to a new broadcast deal. This exposure is expected to raise the profile of women's motocross and inspire young girls to pursue their aspirations within the sport.

At just 20 years old, Cannon has already made a name for herself and is considered a rising star in women's motocross. Originally from Maroochy River, Australia, she grew up riding dirt bikes and has now made the leap to compete at the highest level internationally. Cannon aims not only to achieve personal success but also hopes to pave the way for future female riders, stating her ambition to bring another Australian to the championship podium.

Cannon's move to the U.S. follows the success of Australian brothers Jett and Hunter Lawrence, who achieved notable victories in last year's US motocross championship. As the landscape of motocross shifts towards greater inclusivity and television exposure, Cannon's journey could be pivotal in enhancing the visibility of women's motocross and encouraging a new generation of riders to take to the track.
