Suzuki OTSFF Rockstar's Mitch Cooke won his first ever MX1 moto.  

 

 

After a mid-race pit stop for coolant, Paul Carpenter finished second.  

 

 

JSR went down in the first turn and battled back to seventh. Who's bare hand is the corner behind him?  

 

 

Suzuki OTSFF Rockstar's Tyler Medaglia holeshot the first (and only) MX1 moto, but went on to DNF the race.  

 

 

Machine Racing's Kyle Keast ran up front with Cooke early in the MX1 moto.  

 

 

Colton Facciotti DNF'd the moto after getting stuck in this uphill section.

Conditions for the first MX1 moto were ... challenging.   

 

 

Gray Davenport (29) and Tucker Hibbert (103) lead the first MX2 moto.  

 

 

Jimmy Nelson took the win in the MX2 moto but was later docked five positions for jumping on a yellow flag.  

 

 

Kyle Beaton was the only rider to match Nelson's speed. He was third at the checkers (after a late-race fall) but was also docked five positions for jumping on a yellow.  

 

 

Introducing Ben Evans! The unknown Idaho rider finished second in the MX2 moto but was bumped up to the top spot after the Nelson/Beaton penalties.  

 

 

Leading Edge Kawasaki's Brock Hoyer finished fifth.

Davey Fraser (47) leads the now infamous Good Times moto.  

 

 

Mike Harms and Dave Ledarney celebrate their first and second place finishes.  

 

 

Why is Mike Harms smiling? He's about to pocket his part of the pro purse, and he put on a show for his hometown fans... Harms won the moto, with Ledarney in second and Jamie Kennedy in third.  

 

 

Man, Manitoba fans are diehard. Thanks to those who stuck out the day.
