Hurricane Hannah...there’s a new one on the block and she’s tearing down cities nationwide. Hannah Hodges has been a key part of the Women’s motocross movement. An inspiration to women and girls of all ages, Hannah’s hard work is turning a lot of heads. Aside from her regular duties cleaning house in the Girls (12-16) class and making those racing the Women (14+) division nervous the entire moto, Hannah has been cranking on another dream of hers the past few seasons and she is gaining some serious ground on the boys. Hodges was strong during the week at Mini O’s, putting her Dunlop Tires to work and getting the power
to the ground winning three of four Girls (12-16) motos and taking the outdoor national title. She also turned heads in the Supermini 2 class, sticking the #172 Kawasaki ride into the top five during moto one just narrowly missing out on the top five overall. Hodges has big plans and with big bikes coming her way in the very near future, expect Hannah to continue to be the sharp thorn in the boy’s side as she works her way to the top of the amateur motocross scene.
HARVEY SORENSEN JR.
At fifty-five years or older, to be able to swing a leg over a bike is an accomplishment in it’s
own. Harvey Sorenson Jr. took it a step further than that on Thanksgiving Day rocketing out to a huge lead during the first Masters 55+ event. Sorenson led the rest of the golden plated riders around the Mini O’s track making all of the right moves and stealing the opening moto win and the class momentum heading into the rest of the week.
