Well, 2017 has brought change to racing for Matt. Matt has joined BlackWidow Racing for the 2017 season. This will be a good fit for him with some great team-mates from around Minnesota. He is working on getting a new bike dialed in for the season, and getting his "biking legs" back after not riding a lot during the winter. He is looking forward to a fun season of racing with his BMX friends and family.

This week, Matt had been looking forward to getting some good riding in. He was coming off a win at the Pineview Park State Qualifier. However, Mother Nature had other plans for this week. Between rain on race days, hard rain and flooding of local tracks making races impossible, and a possible tornado hitting a newer indoor track nearby, it seems that this week was not meant to be a racing week in southern Minnesota. This next week, hopefully, will allow many of the local... Read More
