Metcalfe puts Pro Circuit on podium

Sun Valley, ID – Brett Metcalfe, who spent all of last year’s SX season on the sidelines with an injury, placed third in the Lites SX race at Bank One Ballpark in Phoenix, AZ this past Saturday. Riding smooth and putting in consistent laps, Metcalfe kept himself in striking position throughout the race. When leader Broc Hepler made a mistake, Metcalfe was able to move up to take third. Metcalfe’s third was the first podium of the year for the usually dominate Team Monster Energy / Pro Circuit / Kawasaki.     The series moves to Anaheim stadium for this Saturday’s “Throwback” race, featuring a replica of the 1986 Anaheim track where David Bailey and Rick Johnson battled in what many describe as the best SX race ever.
