Coming from 53rd position on the seventh row at the start line...
“I was pretty shot when I got up there. If I can start from the front row, I think I can definitely be a contender for winning some of these future races,” he said.
Owen’s training netted him a “really great” sixth place...
He threw in his attack from the eighth wheel as the pace of the front group slowed. He’s unaware, and unconcerned, at how this aggressive posturing might sit within the establishment of the elite field.
“If they don’t like it they can just go harder and drop me,” he said with a laugh.
“I just try to come out and have fun and be nice to as many people as possible,” he said. “I don’t want to create any enemies racing my bike. The sport is to have fun; that’s my main goal, to embrace that and show that through my riding. I do like to have fun but you also have to ride hard — and that’s part of having fun.”
I think I like this 18-yr-old kid.
