EKS BRAND goggle weekend update

EKS
Brand's Michael Leib Podiums In Italy!

EKS
Brand Goggles would like to congratulate its rider Michael Leib on
his fantastic job in the MX2 class at the recent GP in Fermo, Itlay
where he had moto scores of 3-3 for second overall on the day! It was
a great ride for Leib who went over there as a fill-in on the Bike-It
Yamaha squad and ended up leading the second moto for a long time
before blisters got the better of him and he was forced to back it
down and settle for third.

The
ride got Leib another crack at the Mexico GP in two weeks where he
hopes to stand on the top of the box this time.

In
the MX1 class EKS Brand rider Kevin Strijbos ended up seventh overall

Here’s
some press that Leib got for his fantastic ride-

In
the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series in Salt Lake City, Utah, 
EKS Brand team riders Kyle Chisholm and Preston Tilford both put in
in the main event in their respective classes.

Chisholm,
sitting just outside the top ten in the points, was up near the front
early but injuries to his arm held him back a bit. Then later on in
the main event, his front fork broke and he was forced to circulate
for points. It was a frustrating event for the DNA Energy drink
Kawasaki rider and doctors have to look at his arm this week to
figure out if he’s going to be able to race the final event in Las
Vegas this weekend.

Tilford
made his first 250 main event of the year and rode a solid and steady
race to score himself a 13^th.
