We don't know all the details, but it sounds like the rig that Cedric Soubeyras was racing out of for the last few races was in Seattle, but is now headed back home, which leaves him pretty well hung out to dry with no bike.
Here's hoping he can rustle up something for the weeked.
Does anyone have suggestions?

“We felt bad for Cedric when we learned what happened to him. I’ve seen how hard he has been trying the last couple of races. His 14th place in Indianapolis was impressive. We couldn’t leave him without a ride in Seattle especially in the mud where he excels. That’s a real pleasure to welcome him to the team this weekend. He will be a great addition next to Dustin Pipes, Henry Miller, and Kyle Cunningham in the premier class aboard the all-new Snuffy Racing/HEP 2018 RM-Z450 we built at the last minute for him.”
Nice.

I don't know a lot of details beyond that, except that the rig was here, and then it wasn't.
That said i cant understand how a pro racer doesnt have a very good practice bike he OWNS.

The security of the stadium would have refused entry of the Hansen's truck because of full tank of gasoline (the maximum allowed would be 1/4 tank). The driver and mechanic would have called Josh Hansen, and he would have told them to get out of here, leaving Soubeyras (still on the plane at that time) without a motorcycle, without gear, boots, helmet...)
LebigUSA specifies that Perry Concepts would have dropped the team during the week and apparently Soubeyras was not even registered for the race.
It seems that with the help of LeBigUSA, a deal was made with HEP to prepare a bike for him.
