MANILA, Philippines – Kawasaki JBS Motocross Team’s Kenneth San Andres, coming off a triumphant ride in 2016 FIM Asian Supermoto Championship, fortified his billing as the country’s No. 1 rider when he ruled both the premier events of the NAMSSA 2017 National Motocross Development Program at the Speedworld MX Circuit, SM Bicutan.
San Andres,was peerless as he ruled both the Pro Open (MX1) and Pro 125 (MX2) of the series held under the auspices of the National Motorcycle Sports and Safety Association or NAMSSA.
The Valenzuela native, who is backed by Kawasaki Phl, Motorad WRD Racing, Taichi Suit, Pirelli Tires, Motul Phl, Bell Helmet, Troylee Design, Protaper, GoPro, Leatt, GAME OVER, Foilacar Industries, R33 Car Exchange, Kia Global, Halrey, R&E, JM Stickers, ProPipe, JBS Motorcycle Parts & Accessories, picked up from where he left off after a triumphant 2016 season.
“I just knew the Speedworld circuit like the palm of my hand,” said San Andres, who last month earned his ninth straight National Motocross Rider of the Year title. “It’s where I train most of the time, so kabisado
ko na.”
Making it a double-celebration was Kenneth’s father-coach Junjun San Andres, who topped the Veteran’s Class.
In what could be San Andres’ most important win in 2016, he cruised to victory in the Asian Supermoto’s seven-rider production class that was sprinkled with a couple of Asian riders and top locals that included Raniel Resuello and Moymoy Flores.
