Epping, NH (6/12/2012) - The
fifth round of the NEATV-MX series was held at
MX101 in Epping, New Hampshire this weekend. The
track made a few changes and got bigger since
NEATV-MX’s visit last year, which many of
the riders enjoyed. The rider’s were also
able to enjoy beautiful weather, with warm temperatures,
sunny skies, and the occasional breeze that helped
cool everyone off.
BCS Performance Can-Am Josh Creamer appears
to be unstoppable in the NEATV-MX series, going
1-1 in his Pro motos, taking the overall. In
the first Pro moto, Creamer shot off the line,
grabbing the holeshot and making great distance
from the pack early in the moto. Lucas Oil’s
Creamer rode smart and maintained his distance,
taking the win in the first moto. Off the line
in the second moto, Creamer would again take
the holeshot and ride hard to make his distance
from the pack, and finish the eight lap moto
in first, taking the overall for the day. “We
might be doing our own motos out there, but
I’m definitely still pushing as hard as
I can push and the bike is holding up to the
beating, so it’s good,” commented
Creamer on his leads in the motos.

Team Southside Polaris Travis Moore has not
been having the best of luck lately. Moore has
been racing with a dislocated wrist since the
beginning of the season, but in the past week
he has managed to dislocate it for a second
time, and also was in a car accident a few days
before the race. But Moore was determined to
race and made his way out to New Hampshire this
weekend for the fifth round of the NEATV-MX
series.

to make his move into third, his sights were
then set on Young who wasn’t too far ahead
and by the sixth lap, Moore had made his pass
on Young in the back section of the track and
