So awesome!!! Skyler has pretty much sacrificed everything for this....super pumped to see it all pay off.

Also hoping Rockstar sticks it out w/Husky over the long term...:-). Glad to see a 3-yr deal for Skyler...

This so well deserved.

He's put so, so much into his Dakar efforts.

Fantastic news!

Saw Pablo was leaving the team and thought it was odd. 20 minutes later, saw the fantastic news for Skyler

Hell yeah! Well deserved. I can't wait to see what he can do with factory equipment and being able to train and ride full time.

Same!

Man I hope he gets in with the Jimmy Lewis boys. His speed is undeniably good, it's all about the navigation now.

Skyler has ridden with Ricky and Andrew at Jimmy's training grounds in NV. Jimmy is a jackass, but he is undeniably the best rally trainer and navigator in the USA. I could easily see Ricky and Skyler on the podium (I love Andrew, but I'm not sure he is there just yet, and the factory Yamaha doesn't exactly inspire confidence).

Well deserved, he was impressive in this year's race and will be a top contender next year.

Why the 'KENNY' on the suit?
