Bradford, VA (10/28/2015) - Johnson
Motorsports/Honda rider William “Duck” Lloyd earned
his first GNCC victory of the year in the Junior
A ATV race at Powerline Park in St. Clairsville,
OH. Lloyd’s victory comes on the heels of two podium
finishes in the last two GNCC races.
With freezing temperatures and overcast skies
on race day, Lloyd started third and took the
lead one mile into the race. He had cruised out
to a minute-and-a-half lead when the front brakes
on his Honda faded. He carried through, and extra
training prior to this round kicked in helping
him to earn the victory.

Lloyd got off to a great start with his
new Maxxis tires |
“I pulled it off this weekend,” said a jubilant
Lloyd. “I had the baby it through the woods for
the last three laps with no front brakes, but
I ended up winning. We got some new Maxxis Tires
this weekend and they worked great. It’s really
starting to come together.”
Lloyd, a regular motocross competitor, had to
modify his training program to cope with the rigors
of cross country racing.

Lloyd finishes on top at the Powerline Park
GNCC with his third straight podium finish |
“I changed up my training program before this
race and it really worked,” said Lloyd. “I felt
strong all the way until the end. I’ve been putting
in the work and training. I haven’t been out there
in so long. I’m used to motocross and going crazy
the whole time. In GNCC I have to sit back and
think a little bit. I’m going to keep on working
hard to get ready for the next round.”
Lloyd will return to action October 31st when
GNCC holds its season finale in Crawfordsville,
IN.
