RYAN DECKER 300

One of Liquid Militia’s youngest Team Rider is Ryan Decker from Tucson, Arizona.

Ryan Decker Racing- Teammate: Robert Decker

4 Stroke Stock Runabout – Kawasaki Ultra 300X #714

Ryan raced the Mark Hahn last year 2011 and finished 28th overall in the field. He has the first run experience now to apply himself to a fast track in 2012.

Supporters: Macc Racing, Parents, Liquid Militia, Hydro-turf, Fria beverages.

“Our race strategy for the duration of the race, those thirty – ten mile laps, is to have fast pits and very consistent lap times.” States Ryan. “Complete turnkey pit stops will be are greatest challenge”. Ryan knows from last year’s attack that the pits make or break lap times. The key to staying consistent is for land and water to merge and stay in sync with the clock. The clock is the machine of truth, if you aren’t running fast enough in the pits, you can try to make it up on the water, or hope your competitors are scrambling. So there’s a juggling strategy. Every second counts, in fact it matters. “Our pit crew consists of my parents and some of their friends” adds Ryan. This family represents what racing is about, keeping it together and the support, that key element that makes teams effective. It truly is a family affair.

It’s not just the team, but the riders efforts that stack into the equation. Ryan has been taking this challenge seriously and preparing for it. Preparation is key to winning. ‘To get ready for this race I have been riding a lot of motor cross, doing cross fit and using the versa climber’.

Liquid Militia is proud of our youngster racer, we are cheering him onward! I expect to finish and get top 3 in my class.’. We think that sounds about right!
