Ryan Villopoto Trades Dirt For Asphalt

Since signing on with Yamaha last January, four-time Monster Energy AMA Supercross Champion Ryan Villopoto has been busy.

He’s raced Snow BikeCross at X Games Aspen, 125 All Star rounds at Lucas Oil Pro Motocross, Red Bull Straight Rhythm, Monster Energy Cup, and the Pit Bike of Nations. Throw in some guest appearances at the PulpMX/Racer X Live Shows, and we’ve seen a lot of the champ. The “Best Retired Guy Ever Tour” will even include a pit bike race at a NASCAR event later this year.

Recently, RV traded in the dirt for asphalt and rode a 2019 YZF-R6 at New Jersey Motorsports Park for the Yamaha Champions Riding School.

“Didn't know what to expect going to road racing school but it was well worth it,” RV wrote on Twitter.
