Where? His last race result was a year ago according to the vault and even then, he never finished in the top 20.  Is he just not qualifying for the top 40? 😬 

I think I remember hearing he tore his achilles or acl at a1.

So where does this leave Triumph next year ? If Smith is riding a 450 next year. Leaving Swoll and Forkner for sure. Harrup maybe and who else is looking for a ride in the 250 class.

Harrup should stay- finish SX healthy and he’s a sound prospect for 26 in a Deeganless 250 outdoor class!

Bummer to hear this news. This sport is unforgiving and tough to make it in. I thought he would end up being the best of the Bakersfield bunch.

Whatever happened to Aiden Tijero, he could throw insane scrubs. Did good on 125 at nationals that one year then disappeared, did he ever go pro?

Haarup will most likely extend his stay in the US. It looks like the 450 MXGP Team is being pushed back another year. 

I believe Enzo Temmerman still doesn't have a pro deal signed. He won 5 out of 6 motos at Loretta and won the Horizon Award, so he could be an option.

Mitch has to make room for him, right? Won a futures round as well so indoors he's decent on SX as well. I'm a big Masterpool fan but I'd take Enzo over him

Helper raced pro from 03-09 and had some wins in lites and podiums in 450s… I don’t think he should be in the same conversation as most of these guys. Was his career shorter than some guys? Sure. But most of these people listed above weren’t in the same field as Hepler. He was a very solid podium contender from 03-09.

Aiden Tijero, Mason Gonzalez, Ashton Hayes, Bradley Taft, Kyle Corman, Alex Frye... actually, damn near anyone that ever rode for TLD KTM (almost like there is a thing with that), Blake Green, Mark Worth, Jon Jon Ames, Talon bowed out this year, Ciaran Naran, Kim Savaste, Nico Leocata (just seeing if anyone is actually still reading), Justin Summers (where tf did he go?), Eric Goodson, Andrew Pierce, Kyler West (why not, he was fun for a year or two), Surry, Luke George, Bastian Bogh Damm, TKO, Zac Commans, Charbs, Jarek Balkovic, Darian Sanayei, Justin Hoeft, Tristan Miller, Cameron Cannon, Jayce Pennington, Tanner Stack- 

idk, that feels like enough. Love Stilez tho - super hyped for him for what's next. Dude will kill it.

Terren O’Dell, another amateur fast guy (Team Green, Team Suzuki, Rock River in pros), was in the Trettel group. NorCal ripper Charlie Morrison is a blast from the past who disappeared early. Pugmire, Kelley Tedder, Jesse Casillas, etc.

Kelley Tedder had some trick Kawis back in the day. Charlie Morrison was in the same class as Daniel Sani and Dayton Beavers? Pugmire was a ripper in Sinisolo but never saw him do anything on big bikes.

Yep, Trent seemed to lose steam during the transition. 
I remember Turbo Reif absolutely crushing the field at Ponca (02 or 03). Thought for sure he was headed for greatness.

He’s not racing, he’s been the one doing all the 450 testing. 

 He might be the VIP host for Triumph at the races too.
