Mud in Your Eye

Rockstar Suzuki West Coast Lites rider Ryan Morais is back on his RM-Z250 and returning to action this weekend at Anaheim 3. Morais will get a chance to gauge his speed before the series takes a two-month break.

Morais sat out for three weeks after a crash at Anaheim 2 left him with banged up internals. Luckily, nothing broke, but bruised kidneys, lungs and muscles put him in a world of hurt. He’s returned to the team’s training sessions and has been looking strong despite the layoff.

“Ryan’s times were very good, and he looked comfortable on the bike; like he’d never taken any time off,” said Team Manager Bill Keefe. “We are excited that he is up to speed and ready to race at Anaheim 3.”

Morais was running second behind Jake Weimer at the time of his injury, and he’s still inside the top-10 entering A3. Ryan, please, stop Weimer!
