The fifth round of the AMA National Hare and Hound Championship brought the series to Winnemucca, Nevada, for the inaugural Blazing Saddles 100 National hosted by Whatever Motorcycle Club. Set in the heart of Northern Nevada’s high desert, the venue delivered a fast and unforgiving course made even more brutal by relentless wind and dust.
Zane launched off the line determined, but came off the gate in second place. Even from that position, visibility was nearly nonexistent. Despite the early setbacks, the Liqui Moly Beta rider dug deep and mounted a charge during the second half of the race, relentlessly chasing down the front runners. Zane crossed the line in third overall, with the top three separated by only 30 seconds — a tight finish that reflects how close the racing has become this season. With consistent podiums and race-winning pace, Roberts now sits second in the championship standings as the series heads into Round Six in Jericho, Utah. The fight for the 2025 NHHA crown is heating up, and the Liqui Moly Beta team remains firmly in the hunt. |
