Michael Byrne finished 15th and 14th in his first race back after a recent shoulder surgery.

Michael Byrne:

"It was okay. I got points and that was the main goal. I probably don't even know if I should be really racing yet but you got to be in it to build those points up for the championship. I felt like I rode stronger in the second moto than in the first moto: The first moto I got a good start but my shoulder just wasn't used to the jarring of the hills and stuff. It got a little weak and I just kept falling back. The second moto I felt like I kind of maintained and caught the guys ahead of me. All in all, it was okay."

Rockstar Makita Suzuki Factory Racing will race next at the Hangtown Motocross Classic in Sacramento, California, next weekend; May 30th.
