DAKOTA ALDREDGE
Dakota Aldredge came
away from the Ranch with
an impressive duo of top 10
finishes in a stacked 65cc class
this year. His best moto finish
was a 5th place, but that 5th
place looks more like a podium
when you see the names of
highly touted riders that finished
around him. Aldredge is coming
into the Brawl overflowing
with confidence after ending
Loretta Lynn’s on a high note
and showing the speed that
he’s capable of producing. He
decided to contest one of the
85cc classes at Baja Acres,
a class that he has limited
experience in compared to the
65cc machine. The disparity in
experience was prevalent during
the weekend of racing, but
that’s not to say that Aldredge
wasn’t incredibly impressive
every time he threw his leg
over a motorcycle throughout
the weekend. He actually won
the first moto of the 85cc (9-11)
class ahead of some pretty big
names, but he tapered off a
little bit towards the end of the
weekend in that class, although
he still managed to grab a 4th
overall. The 65cc class was
completely different as he was
utterly dominant during every
occurrence in which he lined up
on the gate.
