Villopoto closes in on points lead

Rookie Ryan Villopoto is living up to his nickname “Villopodium”. Ryan got “on the box” for all four motos of the last two Outdoor Nationals. Riding with the determination and confidence of a seasoned veteran, Ryan showed the crowds at Budds Creek and Red Bud why he is being hailed as the next big thing.



With his consistent finishes, Ryan is now within a scant five points of his longtime amateur rival Mike Alessi. All eyes will be focused on the next round of the Outdoor Nationals at Unadilla, New York, to see who will emerge on top in the points battle.
