Yamaha's Taylor Kiser made an incredible charge
after a less than desirable start. Kiser was
outside of the top ten off the start, but Kiser
dug deep and by the midway point had worked
his way into fourth place. In the final lap,
Kiser was able to capitalize on a mistake by
Adam McGill and move into a respectable second
place that he took all the way to the finish
line.

Can-Am/Warnert Racing's Chris Bithell was looking
smooth and consistent as he rode an incredibly
solid race. Bithell was in the top five off the
start and made is way into fourth by lap two.
Bithell would swap positions a couple of times
before landing in third to claim the final spot
on the afternoon podium. “It felt great
to start the season off on the podium. Now I want
to keep the momentum going and hopefully take
a win at the next round,” said Bithell.

began to chase down the leaders and took over
the lead in lap three.
