After struggling in the first half of the season the difficult Snowshoe track conditions didn't slow down the N-Fab AmPro Yamaha's Jordan Ashburn. He walked away with his first podium of the season, rounding out the top three in the XC1 class.
"I'm just happy to be back where I know I should and can be," reported Ashburn, "I've had struggles and I hate it has taken this long, but I'm good now."
In addition to the full GNCC schedule, AirGroup/Rockstar Energy/Husqvarna backed rider Ryan Sipes has been busy with racing the past two rounds of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship. He has been improving all season finishing second at the past two rounds. Unfortunately Sipes injured his knee, ultimately ending his day.
"I hit my knee on something, I'm not sure if it was a rock or handlebar," said Sipes, "but it swelled up and I couldn't hang on anymore or use my knees to grip."
JCR Honda's Chris Bach maintained a consistent placement throughout the race and finished fourth, followed by N-Fab AmPro Yamaha's Grant Baylor in fifth and Factory FMF/KTM's Taylor Robert in sixth.
Moto-Tech KTM's Steward Baylor takes home seventh place, N-Fab AmPro Yamaha's Daniel Milner in eighth giving the Australian one of his best results of the year, Funmart Cycle/FLY/RidePG.com's Adam Bonneur in ninth and Maxxis/Fly/Factory Connection's Chris Douglas finished out the XC1 Pro top ten.
