ARGUBRIGHT TOP MOTORCYCLE AT UTV WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

Jacob Argubright rode his CTR Yamaha to the overall win in the motorcycle/quad race of the Best in the Desert’s UTV World Championship last weekend. The race was over 144 mile long and Argubright won with a 4 minute advantage over Honda-mounted Danny Cooper. This is a comeback ride for Jacob, who has suffered a series of injuries in the National Hare and Hound series. “I started the season off with great momentum, and am not discouraged by the unfortunate happenings from round two and three of the National Hare and Hound series. It’s racing, and while I am confident in my ability to control the things I can, sometimes we (professionals racers) come across things we cannot control. I am looking forward to this weekend’s event, and carrying my momentum into the next National.” Skyler Howes, who was the points leader after round one, finished outside the top 10.
