Support a local racer at Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup - Brenden Ketelesen

Wish all those kids well in chasing their dream and best for Brendon in capturing his. Is he on a road racer now....? Anthony Alonso had much success in AFM and WERA and still struggled.

I did enjoy my time helping as I could.

Brenden races all the things

I think he’s on an NSR platform now

I think his biggest issue was being unable to come up to speed in 2-3 laps. It took him 4-5 to really get into his groove.

Makes sense since a 125 is so much different than an NSR and a big track as way higher speeds in braking and corner entry. More experience should do him well.

Good luck To your boy Dean!! Congrats on the invite and the first foray into the international scene. :thumbup

Brenden has had the fortunate opportunity to track several bikes, above the NSR. Which is one of his race / practice bikes. Moreover, also included dirt as a part of his training regiment.

It's one thing to being mentored, but part of his short fall is racing / tracking with other kids at his caliber / skill level. Unfortunately, they are far and few, around here. However, while at mini-moto track, I have noticed more kids :thumbup For the sake Moto-America future, we need more kids on the track, and affordable training programs.
