Cody Withey #67- Baldwin
Motorsports Pro-Am Racer
Cody is coming into the 2014 season more prepared than he ever
has been. Since February 3rd, #67 has been in Florida training for
his inception into arguably the most competitive class in the
world.. The Mountain Dew AMA National Pro-Am Class. Cody
has been spinning laps almost everyday with teammates Bryan
Vollmer and Sean Mitchell, and is looking to get his feet wet this
season and see what he’s up against! Here is what CW67 says
about the upcoming season and his preseason training!
“Well this year I got the opportunity to come to Florida for 2
months and ride with my good buddy and teammate Bryan
Vollmer, since me and him are racing pro am this year its
really needed to put in the time riding and training in Florida.
We have been riding almost everyday and days we don't we
are going hard in the gym, Itʼs great to have someone your
speed to help motivate and push you to get better. So for
round one I'm feeling really comfortable on the bike and full of
confidence so I'm super excited for the first gate drop but a
little nervous as well. We will just have to take it one Moto at a
time, work my but off and see how things turn out!!!”

Bryan Vollmer #32CATVMX’s New Blood!
Bryan Vollmer came to the Canadian ATV MX Team for a
change in scenery and to rediscover his love for the sport. He
brings with him a wealth of knowledge, experience, and a laid
back “good vibe” feeling to the team!
Bryan Vollmer has been down in Florida training on
his Team Vollmer Yamaha’s with Cody since the
beginning of February. He’s very motivated and
going the extra mile to get himself and his ATV to
the next level for the 2014 season kickoff. Here is
Bryan’s thoughts on the upcoming AMA National
season.
“Iʼve been having an amazing time here in Florida.
Been riding almost everyday. I feel better, faster
and learn more every time I put laps in on my
Yamaha. My mechanic Mark Lossing came too
help do suspension set up with me and now we
have the Yamaha dialed in and ready to race.
Cody Withey and I have been stationed in Bartow
Florida riding at Bartow MX. We had the pleasure
of Sean Mitchell grace us with his presence for
two weeks and all had great times riding and
training together. We have also been making an
appearance at Sunshine MX In Clearwater to do
some night riding which has been pretty cool. On
our days off we head to a Rec center for a good
workout, tennis and some basketball (really need
too sharpen up on my basketball skills). Really
looking forward to round #1 at Aonia pass on
March 22 and am feeling really confident and
comfortable on the bike. Cant wait for the gate too
drop!”
Bryan Vollmer has been spotted
throughout Florida training on his
Team Vollmer Yamaha’s and is
looking better then he ever has!
He’s got a new and improved
motor program, better suspension
setup then 2013, and has been able
to ride and train with his
teammate and good friend Cody
Withey. All the cards are in his
hand, and all that is left is the gate
drop!
Both Bryan and Cody not only have been
training down south, but they have been
promoting ATV’ing in general handing out
posters, Stickers and hanging out daily with
local kids that share the same love of the
sport! ATVing could use more roll models
like these guys!

Sean Mitchell #177
Hungry for More!
Sean Mitchell is kicking off the 2014 season as motivated as
he ever has been. He joined his teammates Bryan Vollmer
and Cody Withey in Florida for 2 weeks of preseason
training to get things dialed in for the AMA National
season! Here is how Sean’s preseason training went and
how he feels for the upcoming opening round.
“I came down and met up with the boys at Bartow Florida
and was super excited to ride after the 25 hour journey
south. First day of Riding I ran into some issues with a
brand new motor that cost me a few days, but once we got
some gremlins worked out I was able to ride hard! I had a
blast and feel better going into this year then last. I’m now
on a familiar bike with a great motor program, suspension
that’s dialed in, and I know I am in the best shape I’ve ever
been in! This is gonna be a great year and I am really
looking forward to progressing and showing people what I
can do!”
Unlike last year, Sean will be able to race every AMA
round for the 2014 season, and is planning on being in the
championship hunt by Loretta Lynn’s!
If all else is unclear, one thing is for certain, the Canadians
that are heading down to compete in the most competitive
series in the world are there to represent themselves and the
people they love. Racer’s are a different breed, and each
racer has there own individual goals in which they motivate
themselves to accomplish. Without competition and selfdetermination, motocross racers would have no justification
for putting their lives on the line, their bank accounts
hovering the red, and their personal lives taking the back
seat. This is what makes racers compete, and what brings
the most colorful personalities to the track… This is the
2014 AMA Mountain Dew Nationals, and its time to go
Racing!

Whatever! Doesn’t matter what
or how you ride, just that you
ride!”
