This momentum continued, and Mullins finished second overall in the next three sections. Mullins then took the wins in sections five and six, giving him the overall win ahead of Husqvarna’s Nick Fahringer and Husaberg’s Russell Bobbitt.Antti Kallonen (FMF/KTM Team Manager) says: “It was a pretty muddy course today because of the rain but the course actually became pretty fun near the end when it began to dry up. Mullins really turned it up in the final sections once he was able to gain more traction from the drier course. It allowed him to extend his lead as he worked his way toward another win.”Now five rounds into the series, Mullins holds a 20 point lead in the championship standings. The next round will be held on June 9, 2013 in Marquette, Mich..2013 Reckluse AMA National Enduro West Point Tenn. Overall Results:

In this week’s first segment, Editor Don Williams takes the smallest BMW ADV bike on an urban adventure in Los Angeles. The BMW G 310 GS is a full size motorcycle with a modest engine, so of course we wonder if it is a little too underpowered and might struggle. Don put it through its paces and gives us his take.
In the second segment, Neale Bayly and Kiran Ridley have returned from the Ukraine to Paris where Kiran is based.
Kiran is an award winning photojournalist, and as an accomplished documentarian, he has covered stories as diverse as drug smuggling around the Mexican border, to the devastation of the Australian Bush Fires, to the tragedy of the Mediterranean migration crisis. Neale and Kiran reminisce about their motorcycle adventure in the Ukraine, and their observations and experiences with the incredibly resilient people of Ukraine, who have been put through such brutal hardship.
