Pac West rounds 7
& 8 at Albany Ryan had
a tough weekend at Albany last weekend. The track was very fast and
difficult to pass on. Competition was also stiff as Supercross holeshot
artist Ty Lacey came out to race his home track. On Saturday Ryan
finished 5th in the 125 after crashing, 2nd in the 250 class behind
Lacey, and 1st in the Open class.
On Sunday Ryan finished 1st in the 125
class, 3rd in the 250 class behind Ty Lacey and Tracy Johnson, and 3rd
in the Open behind Lacey and Nick McConahy. With two rounds left
to go, Ryan has earned himself enough points to guarantee championships
in both the 125 Pro and 250 Pro classes. Congratulations Ryan!!

Pac West Round 5
Washougal Saturday results Ryan won the first 125 moto of the day
and then crashed hard while leading the first Open pro moto. He overshot
the landing on the Chuck Sun tabletop jump and landed in the braking
bumps in the turn. The impact sent Ryan and his bike cart wheeling into
the fence. Witnesses of the crash said his bike literally cart wheeled
several times in mid air before it came crashing into him. Ryan had the
wind knocked out of him and was coughing up small amounts of blood after
the crash and did not finish. Possibly suffering from a bruised lung and
kidney, mere mortals would have called it a day, but not Ryan. He got up
and rode the 250 pro moto just for the points and finished last.
By the time 2nd motos were ready to
start, the clouds opened up a huge downpour of rain onto the track. Ryan
got a bad start in the 125 second moto, crashed in the mud and finished
last. Still feeling a bit nauseous, in the next open pro moto I believe
Ryan finished 3rd in the mud. For the final 250 pro moto of the day he
was feeling a bit better and the rain had stopped. He got a great start
and won the race going away!
Pac West Round 6
Washougal Sunday results The rain from the day before made for slick
conditions during practice, but the sun was shinning and the Huffman's
did an excellent job grooming the track. Once again the rutted conditions were definitely to
Ryan's liking. He repeated last Sundays win streak by winning all six motos on
Sunday at Washougal taking the overalls in the 125cc, 250cc, and Open Pro classes.
Pac West Round 3
Saturday results Ryan fell in the first 250 moto of the day
finishing second while the win went to Tracy Johnson who was riding very
well this weekend. Ryan jumped out to a lead in the first 125 moto and
was looking like he had it in the bag until his silencer lost the endcap
and most of it's packing and power. He ended up finishing second to Tracy
Johnson again. But, that was to be the last moto of the day that Ryan
would lose. Ryan went on to win the last four motos of the day and took
the overall wins in the 125cc, 250cc, and Open Pro classes.
Pac West Round 4
Sunday results The Seattle track was a little moist on Sunday
due to rain during the night. The rutted conditions were definitely to
Ryan's liking. He continued on his win streak winning all six motos on
Sunday taking the overalls in the 125cc, 250cc, and Open Pro classes.
