Mitch Kendra called up Kayden Minear after his 1-1 day at the SMX Next – Motocross Combine at the Hangtown Motocross Classic to talk about the race and much more. Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Minear turned pro in Australia at the age of 15 but then got an opportunity to race one event in the U.S. last summer. A moto win at the 2024 Ironman Raceway Scouting Moto Combine turned heads and made his phone ring, changing the trajectory of his life. Now, as a recently turned 18-year-old, he is living full-time in the United States and racing for Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing. The interview covers a bunch of different topics, including having Ryan Dungey as his idol growing up, racing Cole Davies—who is now his teammate on Star Racing—nearly ten years ago, how he ended up in the USA full-time, his early pro years in Australia, the saying he lives by, seeing the Lawrence brothers at races years ago, and more. To learn "bits and bobs" about Minear. "I grew up on the other side of Australia to every pro rider, there's not many pro riders that have come from where I where I grew up," he said. Note: We did this interview Tuesday afternoon and on Thursday, the team announced Minear would be making his U.S. pro debut at the Thunder Valley National on Saturday, June 7, where he will be #106.
