It was not an easy weekend of racing with all of California dealing with torrential downpours, we were lucky to be racing and staying safe throughout these tough weather systems. Steven Walton would grab 2nd please in the Enduro & DH events in some wet conditions. Nate Kitchen would have some dominance performance in the Jr. pros taking the top spot! We would like to thank Southridge Racing for always putting on the best Winter series possible and all our sponsors and supporters! Bootleg Canyon State Championships will be held next weekend! Kailey Skelton will be debuting her first race of 2023 at the Costa Rica Open at the beginning of February and Shane Lesies will be debuting his first race at the Tennessee National second weekend of March!”!

“Solid weekend out here in Fontana for the first race of the year. Happy to start the season right with 1st place. Southridge bringing the wall back and some rain made things tricky and super physical. Glad to keep it together and excited for what the rest of the year has in store”.
-Nathan Kitchen – Jr. Pro Athlete
“First race of the 2023 season is in the books! Had a huge amount of rain come in to shake things up for racing! Saturday saw some cold and wet conditions for enduro and visibility was a challenge but I stayed smooth for a 2nd place finish. Back on Sunday for DH and was able to start the year with a second place finish! I always enjoy the Fontana winter series as it’s great to see where your pace is at and what changes need to be made early on in the year before our race schedule gets packed”
