Partridge to Fill-In for Hill at A3

Thursday, January 31, 2013 | 2:15 PM

RCH Press Release

Josh Hill (No. 75 Dodge/Sycuan Casino/RCH Racing/Bel-Ray/Suzuki RM-Z450) remains sidelined for another week recovering from the fractured right-hand he suffered at the season opener at Anaheim.  He is scheduled to return to the RCH Racing lineup next week in San Diego. In his absence, RCH Racing is excited to announce that Kyle Partridge will ride the No. 85 Dodge/Sycuan Casino/RCH Racing/Bel-Ray/Suzuki RM-Z450 this weekend. Partridge flew the RCH colors for nine races last season and earned seven Main Event starts.

“When the opportunity presented itself there was no way that I was going to pass it up,” said Partridge.  “To have the chance to run a factory bike is exciting. I'm really looking forward to the opportunity. I'm grateful that RCH considered me and look forward to riding the bike on Saturday.

“I’ve been on the bike for three days. We're going to do some riding today to work on starts and get more comfortable on the bike. The biggest difference I notice from riding is that this bike feels so much more solid. It’s super tight. The motor package is gnarly. They're fast.”

RCH Racing is looking forward to visiting Anaheim for the 3rd time this year, and are excited to have two bikes on the track representing our team this weekend.

Not to be a Richard Cranium like Scrub_This, but the bike still isn't going to see the main. Partridge hasn't made a main yet on a bike that he's been riding for months. Hope he proves me wrong though

You guys have some serious issues. As to the dude who asked about our Dad, he passed away in 2008 from cancer. Myself and Jason are doing just fine, but not riding anymore. Jasons still in Vegas, Kyle and our Mom in different parts of California, and our little sister and myself are up in Oregon.
