“As far as Pikes Peak, I feel like I’ve attacked the mountain kind of backward as far as classes and learning curves go, but this year it’s back to my roots—Supermoto is where I got started in my professional racing career—and it’s nostalgic to be on this bike. It’s been an enjoyable process working with KTM’s Factory Racing department, just learning the capability of the motorcycle, testing parts, and preparing for the event. I’m really looking forward to racing up the mountain for the third time this Sunday.”
