Updated 6:31pm Pacfic Time. Last weekend was one of the best supercross races we have witnessed all season long. What's more - the excitement largely involved someone other than the "Big Four". Anytime a big name rider gets hurt, the question always comes up, “Who will step in to take his place?”
Last year that question was answered for Josh Grant’s vacated factory Honda when Cole Seely stepped in for a few 450 rounds on the East Coast to try his hand at some big bore riding. Seely had some decent rides but nothing too impressive. When Trey Canard got hurt at the Los Angeles Supercross this year, the question came up once again. Again it was a factory Honda, and again the answer to the riddle was Cole Seely. But this time the Lucas Oil/TLD/Honda Lites rider had something more on his side: experience and maturity.
When the gate dropped for the Supercross Main Event in Atlanta, it wasn’t James Stewart, Ryan Villopoto, or Ryan Dungey who jumped out to the lead. It was the number 34 of Seely. But that wasn’t the impressive part.
