JORDON SMITH
Jordon Smith has seen many ups and downs in his short career as a pro rider. Jordon is in just his sophomore season of pro racing and doing everything he can to transfer his amateur success into the big leagues. At the opening round of motocross this season, Jordon came out swinging by nearly winning the first moto at Hangtown. With an abundance of confidence, Smith was determined to back it up but was reminded how tough this sport is very quickly. The Geico Honda rider has been showing some serious speed all season but many crashes and flat out bad luck have kept him from reprising his performance at the first moto of the year. After hurting his shoulder a few months ago, Jordon made his return to racing last weekend at Unadilla. He had a very unfortunate mechanical failure in the first moto, but Jordon was able
to bounce back with a 15th in the second moto. This weekend, he will be looking to complete two motos healthy and be able to finish the season strong.
