Let’s talk about what’s going on in the moto classes this year.

Ciaran Naran / Lyndon Snodgrass is currently leading the points and overall championship on a Ducati, taking home 2 wins so far. Right behind Ciaran is Shane Logan , and rounding up the top 3 is Matthew Grant.

We’ve also gotten word that Preston Campbell will be racing Vegas To Reno. He will be Ironmanning the race, which given the nature of this race, probably leaves him out of contention for an overall@win, but we expect a great performance from him nonetheless.

Some other great riders of note this year are Caiden Fenstermaker , who is currently sitting 4th in class in his first year in the Open Pro class, calebtate912 who is sitting 4th overall as an Open Expert, and Re*****on Mathews , who is sitting 5th overall as an Ironman Pro.
