The FACTORY Raceline KTM THOR Team is ready to take on round one of the Pirelli MX Nationals this weekend in Appin with a new three-rider line up.
The team consists of 16-year-old Regan Duffy, who has had a solid preseason and put in the hard yards, to prove he will be nothing short of a dominant force in the MXD class.
Regan explained his high expectations ahead of Round One. “I’m feeing really strong coming into this weekend at Appin, I’ve been training extremely hard with Ross Beaton on and off the bike, with the likes of cycling and doing heaps of mottos, i have really high expecations of myself coming into round one, and am ready prove myself,” explained Duffy.
Young gun and hard charger Jy Roberts, who has been working extremely hard in his pre-season training ahead, of his first team ride in the MX2 class.
Hayden Melross will round out the liner ride up competing in the MX1 class. Hayden has years experience riding in the USA, and with the depth of talent and dedication he has shown in the pre season, we are extremely excited to see what he has to offer in the very fast approaching 2019 season.
Hayden Melross explained his mindset ahead of this weekend. “I’m coming into round 1 with an open mind and I haven’t set too many goals for myself. I have been training so hard over the pre season and am feeling ready. I’m just going to focus on great starts and mistake free laps which I believe will lead me towards the front end of the field.” said Melross
