La Crosse, WI (4/23/2018) - Root
River Racing’s Pro rider Dylan Tremellen had one
of his best weekends thus far this season, finishing
ninth in the AMA ATV Motocross National Championship
race at Underground MX in Kemp, TX. Tremellen
continues to move up the charts aboard his Root
River Honda.
Though he had difficulties in traffic in the
first moto, he was on point in the second moto.
After a good start, Tremellen quickly made his
way through the field to finish a career-best
finish of seventh and scored ninth overall.

“The first moto didn’t go too well,” said Tremellen.
“I had trouble in the first two corners and had
to check up on a jump to avoid hitting a rider.
In the second moto, I had a good start and finished
seventh, so that was awesome.”
Tremellen said shock tuning on his Motowoz suspension
is really starting to show. Combined with his
RAGE engine and Hoosier Tires, Tremellen has made
improvements at every race this season and is
on track to make it to the front.
“We have been doing a lot of shock work and I’m
getting more comfortable on the bike,” said Tremellen.
“Physically I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been
and it has paid off because I’m faster than I’ve
ever been.”

Tremellen loves his new custom Canvas MX gear,
with EKS goggles, and Deft Family gloves. The
gear has made a huge difference in his comfort
level on the bike.
“Canvas Gear is a super great company to work
for,” said Tremellen. “The gear is top notch and
I like that we can customize it all ourselves.
The gear, the goggles and the gloves are all great
equipment. It was a great move to switch to them.”
Tremellen now sits 10th in points. With a sense
of comfort on the new Honda, and great conditioning,
he’s ready to make a run for the top five.
“I started off a little slow; I wasn’t used to
the new bike, and the more powerful engine, but
I’m making progress,” said Tremellen. “I have
a new practice bike I’m working on and that will
definitely help going into the next round.”
Tremellen and the rest of the Root River team
will return to action May 5-6 at Ironman Raceway
in Crawfordsville, IN.
