JONNY WALKER TO DE- FEND AMA ENDURO- CROSS TITLE

Triumph Factory Racing has Jonny Walker back to the USA to defend his crown aboard the Triumph TF450-E. His campaign started well with a win in the opening round in Las Vegas. The second outing saw arch rival Trystan Hart take the win and it looks like it will be a battle royale to the end. With a British rider and a Canadian leading the standings, the pressure is on for the‘ locals’ to find a way of toppling them as both Hart and Walker seem to have a knack of pulling off passes at critical times during the tight racing. Jonny Walker is a master at such things, seemingly having options at obstacles that nobody else can just throw in when needed, and he does it without hesitation.. the weekend and won the one that matters most in the MXoN, the Teams Classification. Great racing, lots of coverage and just a stunning stage to show the world what motocross has to offer in a fast motorsport that has an amazing variety of ways to pass, both on the ground and in the air and a crowd that set a high standard for sports events everywhere. For the record, it was the 16th time the Belgians wad won the Chamberlain Trophy, albeit after a thirteen-year drought. They sit first equal with Great Britain in overall wins. Liam Everts’ standout form was extra special for him as he now has his name on the same trophy as his father and grandfather. It is either something in the water or simply fast genes … Congratulations to the Belgians. The Kiwi challenge is coming …
