The Atlas Cycles / Stickman Graphx offroad race team traveled to Kentucky for round 5 of the Amsoil Grand National Cross Country Series.  Heavy rains throughout the weekend made for extremely slick, muddy conditions. The am and pm races were combined into one single 2 hour race in an effort to maintain the best possible track conditions. However, this also made for more racers in the evening race to contend with. The Atlas/Stickman team was up for the challenge with all 4 pm riders finishing in the top 40 overall with career best finishes. Matthew Nix finished an impressive 13^th overall and 3^rd in 250A after a first turn crash left him fighting his way forward all day. Dylan Stout also competed in the 250A class where he finshed 8^th and 37^th overall. Wes Keller rode the 4 stroke A lites class where he finished 3^rd and 29^th overall just behind XC2 rider Lucas Statom who rode to a season best 7^th place class finish.

Additionally Super mini rider Braxton Mcgee made his presence know once again in the youth race where he finshed 4^th overall and in class after a first turn crash in the mud left him charging from behind all day to score valuable points and maintain his points lead while minimizing the damage.

The team will be back in action in Indiana for Round 6 of the GNCC Series.  As always, we'd like to thank the following sponsors for all their support!
