Keep Calm And Moto On

Handling Pressure W/ Monster Energy Kawasaki Team Green’s Stilez Robertson.

Keep Calm And Moto On

Racing motocross can cause a roller coaster ride of emotions for a rider of any level—young, old, beginner, or even professional. It’s a high-speed, high-heart-rate, and sometimes-dangerous activity that gets a rush of pure adrenaline flowing through you from the drop of the gate all the way to the finish line. With all of these race-day emotions comes mental pressure, whether it’s self-instilled to do well or from the need to deliver for major sponsors who support you. One young racer by the name of Stilez Robertson certainly endures more pressure than most kids his age on any given race day and does so with style and grace. There aren’t many kids his age who have lined up behind a gate that drops inside a sold-out stadium like at Monster Energy Cup!

Yamalube/Star Racing/Yamaha’s Cooper Webb is one of the grittiest riders in the sport, and there’s never any doubt about the effort and aggression he puts forth on the racetrack. In his last year on a 250, Webb left nothing on the table and went out with a bang winning everything that there is to win in the class. We chatted with The Scrapper just before he headed to Italy to captain the United States Motocross of Nations team.
