MXstore’s Own Moto Insider #5
AMA 2014 Outdoor Nationals:
AMA riders had a weekend off after 4 long weeks straight of racing, but considering the level of intensity at the season openers there are sure to be some long hours put in at the gym and the test tracks.
Riders from around the country will be looking to gain a competitive edge before the next round at the Tennessee National on June 28th. Keep an eye out in the 250cc class for Blake Baggett on the Kawasaki and also Jeremy Martin on the Yamaha as both riders have shown dominating speed in the earlier rounds.
In the 450cc class Roczen Dungey and Bubba Stewart are all showing glimpses of brilliance making for an exciting start to the series, from here it is anyone’s game so it will be interesting to see who made the most of their time testing and comes back with an ace up their sleeve!<
Rockstar Canadian Motocross Nationals Round 4 – Regina:
It was a war of attrition this weekend with a rain effected race day after the heavens opened up turning Moto Valley Raceway into a quagmire.
AMA rider Bobby Kiniry proved to have the skills in the mud taking the win over Tyler Medaglia and Colton Facciotti. Mike Alessi and Kyle Chisholm finished in fourth and fifth while Josh Hill did not finish but with the treacherous conditions less than 20 bikes completed the race!
