The Most Improved Rider of the Year award went

the last half of the season. McClure, however,
was not on hand to accept his award as he was
out in Las Vegas with Scott Kiger racing at the
Henderson Best in the Desert race. Additionally,
team manager, William Yokely took home the Side-by-Side
championship. “I wish Jarrod could be here,
but I told him to go have fun and race. We’ve
have had a good season all around and we are looking
forward to coming back next year,” said
Yokely.

All of us ATVriders.com wish our friend
Glen Pritchard & his family the best
in his battle against cancer |
One of the most inspirational award winners
for this year was the Bass Ass Award which was
given to Glen Pritchard. Pritchard, who has
taken several career wins, and is an all-around
good guy, was diagnosed with cancer after a
serious crash in 2010, and fought a long battle
in his recovery. Pritchard returned to racing
and has done well, but was recently diagnosed
with stage four cancer and is currently undergoing
treatment. We at ATVriders.com wish Glen the
best in his fight and hope he and his family
finds the strength to stay strong through this
tough time.
