MATTHEW LEBLANC
Breaux Bridge has bred a champion and he is the Louisianan sensation named Matthew Leblanc. Matt has enjoyed much sweet success this year, most recently in the state of Florida. Matt is ahead a ridiculously fast surge of AMA (10-11) year old’s that are responsible
for the reinvention of the 65cc and 85cc classes. Team D has found another future star to add
to their elite list in the #329 ride, as Leblanc is on a mission to stay atop his division. Matt had one of the best weeks out of everyone in attendance at the Mini Olympics. Matthew’s efforts on the track yielded fifteen out of sixteen possible moto wins and raked in seven AMA Major Event Titles. Millsap’s Training Facility is notorious for pumping out Champions and it’s clear that his time with his head down is paying him back with interest. Aside from a heap of race awards, Leb- lanc’s work during race action also slated him as the winner of the coveted Pro Circuit Platinum Pipe Award, Fox Bronze Boot Award, and the Illusive Golden Glove.
NATE THRASHER
44 MPG DIGITAL • JANUARY / 2016
Livingston, Tennessee’s Nate Thrasher was red hot in the Florida sun racing his way to a big Supercross championship. Thrashing through the pack twice, Nate took the heat race and main event win in the 85 (12-13) Limited class. Thrasher has been killing the 85cc game lately aboard his Rides Unlimited backed KTM. All in all he claimed three moto wins over the week in Florida at the Mini O’s with four additional podium finishing rides. Nate made some serious noise in the Sunshine state and is now on the radar as one of the boys to beat. When things heat up this spring expect nothing less than aggression, speed, and heaps of style from the #428 machine.
