FRE/KTM rider Bryan Cook finished 6th overall in the XC1 class at the Mountain Ridge ATV GNCC in Somerset, PA.
The eleventh round of the series was held on the rockiest terrain the racers had seen this season. Rain the Friday before the race had kept the ground moist and allowed for no dust in the fields but a few mud holes in the deep sections of the woods.
Cook was able to rocket his KTM off the line just missing the holeshot by mere inches. He was quickly caught up in the battle for the lead with top runners Adam McGill, Brian Wolf, Chris Borich, Chris Bithell and Taylor Kiser. The six riders stuck together in a tight freight train for the first part of the race. Cook held 6th position throughout the majority of the race and eventually finished in that spot when the checkered flag flew. Wolf went on to take the win followed by McGill, Bithell, Kiser and Borich to make up the top five.
