RONNIE MAC OUT OF PUERTO RICO MX OF NATIONS TEAM
According to Travis Pastrana, Ronnie Mac is out of the two-stroke dream team for Puerto Rico. Travis said via his Instagram that it is still happening though, with an unnamed rider who will fill in. The team of Ryan Sipes and Travis sound determined to still make it happen for Puerto Rico and the relief effort.
Travis Pastrana– “To put it mildly, this past week has been nothing shy of a catastrophe. We had a clear goal to add (not take away from) the #MXON. Build up the #MXON to people outside the industry through what I still believe could have been one of the greatest documentary ever filmed. All while raising funds to help hurricane relief in Puerto Rico. We had approval from the top but it all came crumbling down. The chances of us making the A-Main at the MXON on 2 strokes was slim to none and our plan was never to effect the outcome of the event.. but rather to show how tough this sport truly is and to be a part of what will surely be the most incredible mx event ever held in the USA. Thanks to the people trying to protect the sport, this now looks like a joke and we have taken attention away from the event I hold most dear to my heart. @nitrocircus has pulled out of the film project and Ronnie Mac has been pulled from the team. Having said that, I am a man of my word and I promised you guys I would race and the people of Puerto Rico that we would help. Ryan Sipes is not afraid to spend his own money, race his heart out or swing a hammer.. and that’s what we are going to do. More announcements to come on the third rider but for now, I leave you with one more quote.”
“Things won’t get better dwelling on the past. Accept what has happened. Then move forward.”
