Overview: Episode II of The Spectrum Series takes us right into the weekly grind of former factory GEICO Honda rider, Matt Bsiceglia, as he works to find his speed and consistency on a newly formed privateer team during the 2016 Supercross season. Meanwhile, amateur minicycle rider, Talon Hawkins, shows us first hand the heart of the amateur motocross racing scene by allowing us to document his journey at the Loretta Lynn's Regional Qualifier as he attempts to qualify for the biggest amateur national in the world.
Winning Loretta Lynn's is the pinnacle of amateur motocross racing. And, nobody knows this better then Matt Bisceglia, who has won multiple championships at The Ranch, one of which earned him his factory GEICO Honda ride for the 2014 and 2015 racing seasons. However, winning the most prestigious amateur national in the world doesn't always mean your professional career will continue to ride the wave of success from the amateur ranks. Bisceglia goes in-depth to talk about his ups and downs since turing pro, losing his factory ride, riding for a privateer team while fighting through injury and more.
While Bisceglia has won multiple championships at The Ranch, 12-year-old Talon Hawkins has, by design, never competed at Loretta Lynn's. Talon and his patrons allow our cameras access to document their journey to qualify for a second class at a Loretta Lynn's regional, as well as discuss how motocross is not everything, and the importance of keeping Talon in public school while keeping their eyes humbly set on the ideas of turning pro one day.
