On The Pegs P 58 NE PRO2: TEAMMATES 1-2 AirGroup/Enduro Engineering Husqvarna teammates Jake Froman and Logan Lowrey grabbed the top two spots in the NE Pro2 class, with Froman edging his teammate by just two seconds for the win. The top three spots were still up for grabs heading into the final test, with Froman, Lowrey and Jarrett Mohn separated by just three seconds. In the end, Froman was 11th in the overall standings to claim the win, with Lowrey finishing 12th overall for second in class. Mohn was 14th over- all for third in the NE Pro2 class. “I’ve never really had a good result here and I wouldn’t call myself the best rock rider, so it’s good to get the win today,” said Froman. “I stayed smooth all day and I never had any problems until the final test and I was going for it and I ended up snapping off my brake pedal with two miles to do.” Lowrey was equally pleased with second place. It was good for sure,” said Lowrey. “We rode good all day. I was really consistent. I made a few mistake that last test, but overall I’m really happy with my riding. I was nervous coming into this race. This has always been a race that I’ve really struggled at, so to get a good result was definitely a step in the right direction.” LOGAN LOWREY (LEFT) AND JAKE FROMAN (RIGHT) CELEBRATE WITH EE TEAM MANAGER MIKE “NAPPER” NAPER NAPIERALSKI.
