KEN ROCZEN
It hasn’t taken long for the supercross runner-up to display an established grip on the premier class as, so far, four rounds into the 2016 Lucas Oil Motocross Championship, K-Roc has been lights out. Week after week, the outdoor strengths of Ken have proven to be too much for the rest of the class
forcing every other rider to fight for 2nd. Putting in the work for RCH Suzuki, through the first four rounds, Roczen has only slipped up one moto thus far, and holds a streak of five straight moto wins coming in to Muddy Creek for round five. No matter the conditions, the temperature or the track, Roczen shows up on Saturday and wants nothing more than to indicate total dominance the rest of the season but still has a few strong contenders to face, even in Ryan Dungey’s absence. With Eli Tomac and Cole Seely both showing moments of brilliance, Kenny will need to keep the consistent starts, lay down the law in the first few laps and stay strong till the finish to ensure the streak stays alive.
