Michael Leib
Michael Leib is a professional Motocross/Supercross rider from Menifee, California. Michael turned pro in 2012 as a privateer. Then, in 2013, he decided to try out the MXGP circuit and had limited success. He would return to the United States full time in 2014 as a privateer and put up some solid results in the 250 West class. He looked to better his results in 2015, but an injury early in the season derailed any chance he had at a decent position in the championship. For 2016, he signed with Blue Buffalo / Slater Skins Yamaha. After competing in IB Corp Yamaha's reality competition show, Michael landed a ride with the team for the 2018 season, but his season was tainted by a nagging injury and he was left without a ride for the 2019 season. Michael is also the owner of his own gear company, Canvas MX, and juggles managing the company and racing professional motocross.
