NOAH MCCONAHY
Noah McConahy has made a name for himself this season as one of the top 450 privateer riders. That is quite the accomplishment in a class full of factory riders, past race winners, and former champions. Week in and week out McConahy is duking it out trying to edge out the last of the factory guys right around that top fifteen and he does so quite often. This is such a drastic improvement from where he was as a rookie
four years ago. He was struggling to even make it into the program and now he is battling with the best in the business. It shows how hard he has been working and how much effort he has put forth over the past few years to fulfill his dream. The one part of his game that he is still working on perfecting is his consistency. One great moto and one bad one is how a lot of the races have gone
for him but some of those great ones have been very impressive. He showed a big sign of improvement right before the break at his hometown race at Washougal where he went 11-13 for a big career best twelfth overall. That was a big confidence booster and he will try and carry that momentum through the rest of the season.
