SLR Honda rider Mikayla Nielsen faced adversity at Round 3 of the Women’s Motocross Championship, where weather conditions played a major role in reshaping the weekend’s racing schedule. With heavy rain canceling all on-track activities Friday, the event was condensed into a single moto on Saturday — held at the end of the day under the track’s most brutal conditions.
Mikayla approached the race with determination, knowing the key was to ride smart and maintain momentum through the rough terrain. Her strategy worked — until the final lap, where a collision cost her crucial time and left her just off the podium with a heartbreaking fourth-place finish.
Despite the setback, Mikayla remains focused and motivated as the championship heads into its second half. Her grit and resilience shine through as she looks ahead to the next opportunity to prove herself on the track.
