KELLEY TOPS TOUGH LIKE RORR
B
en Kelley proved to be plenty
tough enough at this year's
Kenda Tough Like RORR Intense
Off-Road Race organized by the
Reading Off-Road Riders near
Tamaqua, Pennsylvania, June
30 – July 1. After getting off to a
midpack start in Sunday's Tough
Like RORR main event, the Trail
Jesters Racing KTM rider took
control of the race about two
miles into the opening lap and
never relinquished control. After
three-and-a-half hours of racing
in near-100 degree weather, Kel-
ley claimed his second "TLR" win
in three years and pocketed a
hefty $5000 prize for his efforts.
"It feels really good to win,"
said Kelley. "After winning in 2016
and then missing the podium
altogether last year because of
mechanical problems, I really
wanted to win this race this year
and it feels good to get it done."
The two-day event is similar
in nature to most "knockout"
