PATASKALA, OH (July 19, 2022) <\/strong>\u2013 MDK Motorsports<\/strong>, led by entrepreneur team owner Mark Kvamme and managed by former supercross rider Jamey Grosser, announced that two-time World Supercross Champion Chad Reed<\/strong> will compete for MDK in the upcoming FIM World Supercross Championship (WSX). The Australian superstar, who retired in 2021, will return to the starting line when the championship kicks off on Saturday, 8th October in Cardiff, Wales at Principality Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the first of four riders announced by MDK for the Global Championship, the Australian native already has two FIM Supercross World Championships to his name and will compete at the same level in hopes of a third. Reed, who holds the record for the most main event starts in Supercross history at 265, has amassed over 190 podium finishes, 50 supercross victories and 11 motocross victories throughout his career. In addition to his decades of knowledge and experience, the Australian native is one of the most popular riders in the sport and will draw tens of thousands of die-hard fans to stadiums around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOpportunities like WSX don\u2019t come along every day. I\u2019ve seen plenty during my career, but this is super cool and something I had to be involved in,\u201d said Reed. \u201cThe WSX Championship going global is the biggest thing to happen to supercross in its history and I\u2019m looking forward to joining Mark Kvamme and the MDK team for this opportunity. They possess all the technical expertise, resources, and passion I need behind me to be successful. I haven\u2019t raced in Melbourne since 2019, so it\u2019ll be an unbelievable experience to get back here in October and go up against the best current riders in the world. It\u2019s going to be one hell of a series competing for an FIM-sanctioned World Championship.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe notion of being a part of a global expansion for supercross and winning world championships is what brought MDK back to the sport and the WSX series. To win championships, you need to have prominent athletes, and there\u2019s no doubt we have that in Chad Reed,\u201d said Kvamme. \u201cThere are so many regions around the world with die-hard fans that ride motorcycles and love supercross. MDK Motorsports could not be happier or more motivated to compete for them nowand in the years ahead as we take this sport to a new level.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
