Spokane, Wash. (October 29, 2009) – MotoConcepts Racing is excited to
announce the signing of former Australian Champion Daniel Reardon and former
Factory KTM rider Ryan Sipes. Both
of these riders join MotoConcepts Racing for the 2010 AMA Supercross/Motocross
race series.
Reardon is currently in Australia participating in
the 2009 Super X Series. He will
complete the series before joining the team in early December to begin testing
and training on his new Yamaha YZ450F which he will be riding during 2010. Reardon has proven he has the speed to
run up front. Before suffering
injuries this summer, he was a consistent top five threat as he secured sixth
overall at both Hangtown and Freestone.
Recently at the 2009 US Open in Las Vegas, Reardon also showed his
talent on a tight Supercross track taking third overall.
Sipes has settled into California where he begins
testing and training on his YZ250F.
The Kentucky native battled through injuries in 2009 before returning to
the last few rounds of the Lucas Oil AMA Outdoor Nationals where he proved
again, why he was one of the top riders.
In only four rounds, Sipes compiled enough points to finish 21st
overall and finished the year off with an impressive fourth overall at Steel
City.
“This is an exciting time for MotoConcepts Racing,”
stated Team Owner Mike Genova. “We
have added two excellent riders to our team and they help complete a 2010 squad
that will represent our sponsors very well and be extremely competitive on the
track. With the support we receive
from Yamaha and the talent of our riders, we look forward to great race
results,” continued Genova.
Team Manager Steve Lamson had similar feelings
regarding the 2010 MotoConcepts Race Team. “We have put together a great looking 2010 team that has a
lot of talent and experience,” stated the former 2-time Champion Lamson. “The new Yamaha bikes are really strong
and the opportunity for a high level of success is very motivating as we prepare
for Anaheim one.”
Reardon and Sipes join Jeff Alessi (250 W), Vince
Friese (250 E), and Matt Goerke (450) as the 2010 members of MotoConcepts
Racing. The team is still actively
looking to add another rider, stay tuned for more information.
