Dew Tour FMX Contest to Air Live on Spike TV

For the first time ever, FMX fans will be able to catch an AST Dew Tour event live on Spike TV.  This weekend’s PlayStation Pro FMX finals will be airing on Sunday, Oct. 19 from 12:30-2 p.m. ET.  It’s all thanks to the corporate synergy that comes from MTV buying the AST earlier this year (MTV Networks owns Spike).

Normally NBC Sports airs five of the six contests that make up each AST Dew Tour stop, with FMX being one of the more popular.  Last season, one of the FMX contests was also webcast live.

This year, everything changed with FMX — the tour announced that the event would be cut from two of the five stops (with Demos filling the gaps).  Blake Williams won the first stop in Baltimore in June, while Adam Jones won in Salt Lake City last month.

Jones leads the overall AST Dew Cup race with Williams a close second.  However, Williams was injured at the X Games Mexico contest last month and is expected to miss the final stop in Orlando — but these moto riders are pretty resilient, so anything’s possible.
