Team All Access KTM Race Report:
Hi Everyone
After a two week break we had some time to train and test a little more, and that really helped us out at the Supermoto in Grange last week. As the TV
was there filming for the New movies Supercross, this created a lot of
attention and with a $6000 unlimited class purse, this brought more top
riders from all over the country.
Team TLD had Chris Fillmore, Team KTMs Grant Langston, Team White Brothers
Shane Drew, Huskys Mark Burkhart to name a few we there to go after the pro
purse.
In the first of two heats Micky worked his way from 8th up to 4th in the 6
lap heat race and show great speed a board his KTM 525. I was in the second
Unlimited heat race, I took a 3rd place start and worked my way into the
lead, on the second to last lap Mark Burkhart passes me on his factory Husky
610, I was riding the 450, I followed him till the last lap and made a clean
block pass in the dirt and went on the win my first Supermoto race.

Unlimited Final
I had a front row start for the final and Micky was on the second row. I was
a bit anxious and jumped the start, I was leading for two lap before
Fillmore, Micky and Drew passed me, then I ran off the track trying to brake
late, I returned in 8th place and finished 8th. Micky rode a great race and
started to show signs of closing in on Fillmore but ran out of time. When the
flag dropped it went - Fillmore, Micky & Drew. I was 8th and Langston 10th. Later I was dropped back three places for jumping the start.

Many thanks to all you guys for your great support you have given us.
I will be leaving today for Europe to race a 4 round SX Championship in Czech
Republic for KTM. I won that event last week and hope to do the same this
time again. After I return Micky and I will be doing some testing again
before heading to Willow Springs for our next Supermoto race.
Kind Regards
