VOL. 56 ISSUE 8 FEBRUARY 26, 2019 P25 Renzland To Canada T he Royal Distributing/FXR Yamaha Team announced its three-rider MX lineup for the 2019 Rockstar Energy Drink Triple Crown and Canadian Motocross Championship and one of those riders is American Luke Renzland, a former top U.S. amateur racer who made his pro debut a few years ago. Despite finishing fifth in the 250SX East Championship last year, with a career-best third at Indianapolis in 2018, Renzeland was unable to secure a ride in the U.S. in 2019, so he will now head north for the spring/summer months. Renzland's teammates will be Marco Cannella and Hayden Halstead. "I'm looking forward to a new challenge, new series and new country to freshen things up," said Renzland who will wear the number-94 in Canada in 2019. "The mix of arenacross, motocross and supercross is a great concept and I can't wait to get racing!" said Renzland.
