Noah Woods Nate Crofoot lifted off the starting pad and rocketed out in front of the class in moto two, looking to improve on his fifth-place finish in moto one. Robinson and Doyle were locked peg to peg through the corners and were almost flying united over the doubles, triples, and tabletop jumps. Nichols also improved on his moto-one start, in fourth place, and he began fending off the challenges of the experienced JOMthan Kriegbaum. Crofoot's Hond~ lost its footing while leading, ~nd Robinson ~nd Doyle both flew by ~nd caught some more big air. Kriegbaum and Nichols were now wingtip to wingtip, sailing, and Beehler was struggling in sixth place. Doyle staged his own great battle with Robinson for the lead in a two-bike breakaway, with first overall at stake. They produced a high-speed accordion effect, as Doyle would close in, and rocketman Robinson would respond by pulling away slightly. Meanwhile, Nichols and Beehler had both made the pass on Crofoot stick, and the Motocross Force was with them. Doyle skyrocketed over a pair of doubles to pull right alongside Robinson in a battle down the back stretch. Doyle took the lead, but on the return flight Robinson was out front by half a bikelength. Robinson re-entered the atmosphere ~fter passing over the 10,OOO-galion tabletop and claimed first overall on a I-I tally, over a great field of talented riders. Doyle (2-2) streaked to second overall. Nichols (4-3) took third overall. Beehler (3-4) lost his grip in moto two but held on to fourth over~lI, and Crofoot (5-5) kept his footing on the path to fifth overall. sell Oay (Sw:). 125 B: 1. Davl Millsaps (Sut): 2.
