Ken Roczen: “Every weekend is an ordeal!”
To say that Ken Roczen is not having the best of times is an understatement. At the beginning of this year, K-Roc started the Supercross season as one of the favorites, but that turned out differently. He finished fourth, 60 points behind winner Cooper Webb. Things aren't really going as well as he would like in the AMA Outdoors either. The German is currently third, 57 points behind Eli Tomac.
Roczen posted a message on Instagram this week saying the following: ” With a 2nd and 3rd place and a 2nd place overall, I cannot be dissatisfied with my weekend in Washougal. Especially considering my performance lately. Every weekend is a big ordeal for me, but I also see it as an opportunity to be mentally bulletproof for 2020. It sucks to get miserably tired early in every race. But instead of whining about it, I embrace reality. It will be nice to be able to race 100% healthy again.”
