Beta Team manager Zack Huberty was very pleased with his team’s solid efforts, “We finished solid again this weekend and nearly had two Betas on the podium. Jesse started great and stayed in second the entire race. Tegan made a last lap attempt to get on the podium and missed the opportunity right at the finish line, but rode great. We’re excited to head to the National Enduro this weekend.”

“I was disappointed with my day as I came up a little short of another podium finish. 3rd place slipped away from me right at the end of the race. I felt like I rode well but I still need to work on eliminating some small mistakes. I am looking forward to another podium at round 3!” Temple explains.
