The rain came pouring down. That was the scene at this year's round at Spring Creek MX Park in Millville, MN where they saw large volumes of rain come down and turn the track into one mucky mess. They ended up cancelling part of practice and cutting back time on another practice session. Not a fun day out there for many riders who had bikes blowing up and visibility issues but then we had Henry Miller who persevered through the conditions to claim his career best finish in moto one taking 5th on his home track! Not the most ideal weather to launch a sneak peek of our 2020 gear but Henry Miller, Kyle Cunningham and Jerry Robin got the chance to show it off this weekend. Let's take a look at the mudder in Millville.

And the water continued to flow.
Well hydrated vegetation lined the hillside at Millville.

What do you think of the new Helium kit? Wait til you see his set for moto two!

Into the quagmire.
Not exactly the day Jerry Robin had planned.
Nathen LaPorte would grab 32nd in moto two for a 30th overall.
When this starts happening you get that sinking feeling things are about to go sideways.
Jerry Robin had his bike overheat in the second moto for a DNF and he took 39th overall.
Carter Gordon took 34th in moto two for a 37th overall.
