In the 250A class, Brayden Nolette had a great jump off the line as the green flag waved, only to find himself down on the ground in the first corner. After picking himself up and getting the bike going, Nolette sat just about dead last in the 250A class as he headed out into the woods. With a lot of ground to make up, Nolette worked up from about 26th to 19th by the end of lap one. After struggling with arm pump the first two laps, Brayden began to find a flow and worked on minimizing his mistakes in orderto pick off his competitors and by midway point of the race he had worked his way up to 11th place. As the final laps clicked off in this 3 hour race, Nolette made his way up inside of the top ten sitting 9th in class until an unfortunate bike issue that pushed him back to 10th place in the 250A class as the race concluded. After a hard fought race and working his way up to that top ten finish, Nolette feels he knows what areas he wants to improve to help get him to where he wants to be as he stated, “I am working on my arm pump issues and speed on the first few laps. Also making it through the first few corners without being last into the woods.”
