The Washington D.C. area has had a lot of focus on it over the last weeks. As our country deals with it's struggles, Round 11 of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championships united moto fans at Budds Creek in nearby Mechanicsville, Maryland.
Once again Mother Nature threatened a mudder and Friday night rain was so strong it should have sealed the deal. However, Saturday morning provided sunny skies and one hell of a track crew at work would make perfect conditions for the days battle.
The points battles in each class are nothing short of exciting. Zach Osborne comes in with a chance to wrap up the 250 Championship and a few off motos for Kawasaki's Eli Tomac has caused his giant points lead to slip away and have everyone crunching the numbers at Marvin Musquin and Blake Baggett's shot at putting the number one plate back on a KTM.
In 450 class action moto one would be a bit of a shock as Marvin Musquin tried to hunt down the RCH Suzuki of Justin Bogle. Bogle took the win and then. Y finishing just ahead of Musquin again in moto two, Bogle would earn his first career 450 overall with 1-3 scores. Musquin was second and Kawasaki's Eli Tomac used a win in moto two to get his 7-1 day on the final podium spot overall. When the gate dropped on the 250 class the question was, can Zach Osborne earn enough points to seal his first 250 Championship? Jeremy Martin would attempt to spoil the early celebration but come up short when the number 16 Husqvarna finished 8th in moto one. The newly crowned champ would then go out and win moto two, securing second overall on the day. Adam Cianciarulo has been around what seems like forever and it'd be a bike day for him as well, winning his first ever pro moto in moto one and going on to take the overall with 1-2 moto scores. Shane McElrath looked strong all day and would finish third overall.
Joey Crown has spent his life as a top amateur. With multiple national championships and coming off a second overall in the pro class at Loretta's you'd think you'd hear his name thrown around a little more. However, talk about the Michigan rider has kept quiet and he'd make his transition to the pro ranks as a privateer. You can call the mudder last week a fluke but again the 355 Kawasaki was inside the top 20. Cheer Privateer for Joey Crown and let's hope he opens some eyes for 2018.
