Congratulations to etnies Girl team rider Tarah Gieger for winning the Mammoth Motocross event in Mammoth Lakes, Calif., for the second year in a row last Friday, June 23!
Tarah secured her victory with a first place finish in the first moto and third place finish in the second moto. Tarah took the lead early in the first moto by grabbing the holeshot and then easily maintained her position through all seven laps to finish in front of Katie McGuire in second and Jaqueline Ross in third. The second moto proved to be a bit more of a challenge, as Tarah and Katie McGuire collided, causing them both to fall. However, Tarah, a seasoned pro, quickly recovered and finished third, giving her the overall win. Congrats, TG!
Next up, Tarah and teammate Sarah Whitmore will compete in round three of the WMA Pro National Series at Thunder Valley MX in Lakewood, Colo., on July 22, round four at Washougal MX in Washougal, Wash., July 27-29, round five at Broome-Tioga at Binghamton, NY, Aug. 18-19, and round six at Steel City Raceway in Delmont, Penn., Sept. 1-2.
