Ontario, CA (11/11/2011) - Each
April, famed country music singer Loretta Lynn opens
up the pristine horseback trails of her Hurricane
Mills, Tennessee ranch to ATVs for the oldest stop
on the GNCC racing tour.
Known for its mountainous and rocky terrain,
this facility is one of the year’s most
torturous tests of both rider and machine. Originally
slated for April 30-May 1, torrential rains forced
a postponement of the event until this past weekend.
With a facility as unique as this not even biblical
flooding could wash away the excitement!
In the XC1 Pro ranks GBC’s Bryan Cook and
Kevin Yoho engaged in an early battle that pushed
them into an impressive 6th and 7th in the final
standings. Jeff Pickens was in the mix with Cook
and Yoho early on, but some late race issues held
him to 9th place on the day.
XC2 Pro Am racer Eric Hoyland fought hard over
the 2nd place position all day, coming up just
one second short. Nevertheless, Hoyland landed
his GBC-equipped Derisi Racing machine on the
podium. Georgia native Richie Brown used the grip
of his Ground Buster II rear tires to grab the
XC2 holeshot award to start off the day.
