Daniels, WV (3/12/2015) - Can-Am / QuadBoss / BikeMaster / Kenda’s Bryan Buckhannon kicked off the 2015 GNCC season with a third place finish in his class and finished third overall on the morning podium at the Wild Boar GNCC in Palatka, Florida.

It was a perfect day for racing with mild weather and dry conditions prevailing. Palmetto roots and large sand whoops were plentiful on the rugged course, but the current 4x4 Pro Champion, Bryan Buckhannon, was ready for action.

Buckhannon had to work his way through a bit of traffic off the start but soon caught the leader early in the first lap. Buckhannon closed in and went for the pass. “When I went for the pass, the trail narrowed and I ended up in the trees. It took me a bit to get out so I had to work through traffic for the second time in the first lap, but I just started picking people off,” said Buckhannon.

Despite the rough course, Buckhannon made several passes and soon found himself up in third place. “My Kenda Tires hooked up really well out there, even in the soft sand, and I pushed my Can-Am really hard and I got back into third, but it was too late to get close enough to the guys up front so I ended in third this time,” said Buckhannon.

Buckhannon’s efforts not only put him in third place in the 4x4 Pro class but also gave him a coveted third place finish on the morning podium. “I’m never really satisfied unless I win, but I will take third for now especially since I didn’t really get to ride much over the winter,” said Buckhannon.

The long cold winter did not allow Bryan Buckhannon to get in as much pre-season seat time as he would have liked, but it did give him the opportunity to add a couple of new sponsors to his program for the 2015 season. “We are really excited to have QuadBoss and BikeMaster on board; QuadBoss is a big part of our program and Bike Master has really stepped up and given us a lot of support as well. Kenda Tires are also on board for 2015 and MSR gear; we couldn’t be happier about that,” said Buckhannon.
