“Not quite the jump I wanted off the line, but I was able to make passes quickly once we were in the woods to make it into the top 5. Not long after, I clipped a log shearing off the shifter. After a quick swap, we were rolling again to claw our way back into the top 10. I had one unfortunate fall near the end of the race that really cost some time. I hit a root wrong and swapped off a bank landing 10 feet down into a creek, I went completely underwater. Definitely made the last two laps tough but we kept hammering. A huge thank you to the team for all the effort. Good results are in the future.”

“The first round of GNCC was a challenge for me. With the car accident I got in on the way to the race, my pre-race schedule was less than ideal. My teammates and team were a huge help getting my stuff loaded in their vans which gave us some relief to get to the race. I’m forever thankful for them for doing that. My race performance was subpar. I struggled to put a race together and I started getting a flow too late in the race. My Beta 250RR was awesome in the gnarly conditions, I’m looking forward to a fresh start mentally at round 2 and showing what we are all capable of.”

"I got off the line and into the woods in 4th and rode there for a few miles until I got stuck in a mud hole. That put me in the back of the pack. I played catch-up all day and was able to get into 5th place until I bent my shifter back behind my footpeg. Bad luck all day but with everything that happened I'm glad to have salvaged some points, come out healthy, and know what I need to do in order to get on the podium next race. Thank you to the team for all your hard work!
