Villopoto & Townley Dominate at Budds Creek

Maryland – Good track conditions welcomed motocross riders to Budds Creek this last weekend including Lites points leader, Ryan Villopoto and current second place runner, Ben Townley. The two Monster Energy / Pro Circuit / Kawasaki teammates rode upfront all day, giving the fans a lot to cheer about. Staying true to form, RV came out fast, winning both motos and taking his first overall outdoor victory of the season. Ben followed closely behind for a solid double second place finish.



Ryan retains his points lead, now holding onto 188 points, while Ben is on his heels with 174. Congratulations Ryan and Ben.

In Motocross class action, Chad Reed made the trip over from Australia to get a refresher for the upcoming Motocross de Nations race. He put on a good showing, jet lag and all, placing 3rd in the first moto and 4th on the second moto for a third overall finish. Well done, Chad.
