Team USA Motoclimb Wins in France
T
he USA Motoclimb Team
conquered Montee Impos-
sible in La Bresse, France, over
the July 18-19 weekend, with an
American winning the race for
the third time in the past decade.
Logan Cipala, Tristan Alexander,
and Dexter Hoenhause were
selected to represent the USA at
Montee Impossible this year, af
-
ter their success in the AMA Mo-
toclimb Super Series Champion-
ship. In coordination with team
manager Joel Falde and Moto-
Club La Bressaude in France, the
team had a successful fundrais
-
ing effort to make the trip and
borrowed several competitive
bikes from club members for the
race. This partnership between
USA Motoclimb and Moto-Club
La Bressaude stretches back to
2017, when multiple top Ameri
-
can Motoclimb athletes have
had the opportunity to compete
in France, while the French have
begun to send racers over to
race the AMA MSS Champion
-
ship the past few years.
This year's race introduced
a night show for the first time,
where the first two runs were
under the lights in front of a
roaring crowd. The race contin
-
ued Sunday morning with three
more runs. The rider with the
fastest time of the weekend
wins this prestigious race, and it
was 2025 AMA MSS Champion
Alexander who ended the night
with the fastest time of 21.59
seconds, aboard Yohan Peltier's
KTM 1190.
