Mackenzie Tricker Shines
US Women's MX 2014
Round One of the new AMA Women's Motocross Series, promoted by MX Sports, debuted in conjunction with the Ricky Carmichael Amateur Supercross in Daytona, FL, on March 9 and 10, and Mackenzie Tricker served notice that she will be the one you'll have to beat if you plan on winning the 2014 championship.
Motorcycle Superstore / Bell Helmet-sponsored Tricker is one of Australia's rising female athletes and is obviously on track to become one of America's top motocross stars. The rough Daytona Supercross-style track and the two-moto format was the perfect fit for the 2013 Loretta Lynn's Amateur Motocross Women's Champion.
"I got a killer holeshot and rode consistent to take moto one," claimed Tricker. "I didn't get a very good jump out of the gate, but I was still there at the first corner and snuck through the inside to get the Motorcycle Superstore Holeshot Award. I then pulled a comfortable gap and kept it at that. I feel I rode tight and made a number of mistakes but it's a good base to start with.
"It was a good start to the series, I learned some new things this weekend and now know where I need to improve. Back to work this week in preparation for Round Two in two weeks in Freestone, Texas."
