Motocrossed is a 2001 American sports drama film released as a Disney Channel Original Movie about a girl named Andrea Carson who loves motocross, despite the fact that her father finds her unsuited for the sport, being that she is "just a girl". When her twin brother Andrew dislocates his knee just before a big race, their father is forced to go to Europe to find a replacement rider. In the meantime, Andrea secretly races in Andrew's place with her mother's help. The movie is a loose adaptation of William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night.[1] The film also had a lot of product placement as many of the clothing, motocross gear and bikes seen were from real extreme sports companies like for example Vans, Suzuki, No Fear and Fox Racing.[citation needed]
