Union, SC (5/20/2011) -
FRE/KTM ATV GNCC rider Bryan Cook earned 8th overall
at the sixth round of the GNCC Series.
The fifth round of the series was canceled
due to flooding in the Tennessee area and the
sixth round held in Gosport, IN almost had the
same result. Weather conditions in the Midwest
were skeptical once again as the race got underway
on Saturday morning with heavily clouded skies.
FRE/KTM’s Bryan Cook got off to a rough
start and found himself in 12th position as
the riders rounded the first corner. Soon after
the start, heavy rain began to fall down on
the riders. Once the rain started, it never
stopped. Cook battled back and forth with a
group of riders in the bottom ten before finding
a few good lines around them to move his KTM
into 6th position.
The quick and heavy rain made the track difficult
to navigate without making mistakes. Lapped
riders began to have issues staying on all four
wheels which caused the GNCC staff to cut the
race short by one lap for safety reasons. Cook
fell victim to the conditions shortly before
the finish line when he slid past a turn and
ended up in a bottleneck which allowed two riders
to sneak pass. After a demanding race, Cook
came away with an 8th place finish.
FRE/KTM support rider, Aarol Bright, finished
fifth in the XC-2/Pro-Am class.
