BRECKEN BURLEY - DAILY BREAD

Brecken Burley, a 7-year-old rider from Elizabeth, Colorado, is training hard to be a top contender in the 50cc classes heading into the 2025 racing season. He recently graduated from his PW to a fleet of shiny new cobra machinery. In 2024, Burley made it to the Ranch in the shaft drive class, where he battled with the top racers in the country on amateur motocross' biggest stage. Brecken is all about that brotherly love on the race track, when asked about racing with his bro, he said: "We are hot and cold, sometimes we are best friends, other times we are fighting, But everyone knows that I pull the holeshot on him 9 out of 10 times". Burley will be sporting 110 Racing kits on track this season after inking a deal late in 2024 with their elite team. Brecken has been training hard in the short offseason to prepare for spring nationals that lay just on the horizon. Burley's all-in attitude and drive is sure to translate to continued progression and trips to the podium in 2025. The team caught up with Brecken to get the low down on the 1-5.
