JORDON SMITH
Jordon Smith has been anxiously searching for success in the pro ranks. Jordon had somewhat of a bumpy rookie year last season but that is expected of any kid who is thrown into the line up with the best in the world. After such an impressive amateur career, landing a ride with one of the most prestigious 250 teams, and getting the rookie jitters out of the way, Jordon now has everything he needs to get back to the top. So far this season, Jordon has
been impressive and he is proving he deserves his Geico Honda ride. In the first race of the year, Jordon looked to be a contender for the win as he took a very impressive 2nd place in the first moto. Unfortunately, a crash in the second moto ended his chances for an overall win. Jordon has been trying to get back into the top three ever since and he definitely has the skills to make it happen but flat out bad luck has kept him from the top. Jordon took a 5th in one moto in Colorado and is searching hard for his ticket back into the top three. With each race, he is gaining much needed experience and should be able to figure out his consistency soon enough.
