Zach Osborne, Ryan Villopoto and Mike Brown traveled to Great Britain’s Foxhill MX circuit, August 27-28, for the Vet Motocross des Nations and came away with the number-one plates (each rider got their own to take home).
In the four-moto format aboard 250cc two-stroke machinery, Team USA accumulated the lowest score and was crowned this year’s Foxhill VMXDN Champions. Led by double moto winner Brown, Team USA finished out the weekend with 61 points, followed by Team Great Britain with 73 points and defending champions Northern Ireland with 77 points. Fairhust Wessex and Wales rounded out the top five teams.
Brown went 1-1-2-8, while Villopoto went 5-10-4-7 and Osborne 9-8-6-10. Brown also competed in the Evo 125cc class and won three out of the four motos. Unfortunately for him, the moto he didn’t win was a DNF, so he dropped to eighth in the overall class standings.
Americans Doug Dubach and Keith Johnson competed in the Evo Over 50 division, but it was England’s Kurt Nicoll who came away with the overall victory with 4-1-2-1 moto scores. Dubach got on the podium in third with 3-5-3-3 results, and Johnson ended up ninth overall with 1-2-DNF-4 results.
Team USA is expected to field Tim Ferry, Broc Tickle, Keith Johnson and Cody Williams at the next VMXDN event at Farleigh Castle, September 10-11. CN
