Would You Jump a Motorcycle Over a Giant Hamburger Grill?

Find out what motocross riders plan to do this Friday at the fair.

Four motocross riders will try to jump across Juicy's Outlaw Grill, which is the largest grill in the world, this Friday at 12 p.m. at the fair. 

The huge grill has seen more than its share of barbecuing action over the summers. Besides cooking burger after burger for hungry fairgoers, the grill has the exclusive distinction of cooking the world's biggest hamburger, which weighed in at 777 pounds and set the new world record in the Guinness Book of Records in 2011.

According to Angel Moore of the Alameda County Fair, the four freestyle motocross riders will try to jump over the grill at noon on June 28 in the Verizon Action Zone at the fair. 

Of the Friday jump, Jeff Tilton of TNT FMX said, “The risk factor is high because we are jumping over the World’s Largest Grill.”
