Wheels In Motion/ MotoSport.com/ Meen Yamaha's Josh Herrin and Joe Roberts continued their hunt for MotoAmerica championships at round three of the inaugural MotoAmerica season in Virginia. Coming off an impressive podium weekend at Road Atlanta, both Herrin and Roberts were poised to repeat their performances.

The Meen team duo did not disappoint on Saturday, capturing a pair of first place podium finishes. In Supersport race one, Herrin orchestrated a flawless race. Hot on pole setter Yamalube/ Y.E.S./ Graves Yamaha JD Beach's trail, Herrin put together a perfect last lap and passed Beach three corners before the finish line for the win. Roberts also kicked off his weekend landing on the top of the box. In Bazzaz Superstock 600 race one, Roberts started on pole and had a great battle with Mexico Concept Store's Richie Escalante. Roberts lead all but one lap, finishing 2.4 seconds over Escalante, taking his third straight win for the MotoAmerica season.

Sunday posed some challenges for the Meen Team. Supersport race two started off as a repeat of Saturday's race with Herrin once again shadowing Beach's every move. Making the same pass as in race one, Herrin led briefly and then finished third in front of M4's David Anthony. Bazzaz Superstock 600 race two came to unfortunate end quickly for the Meen Team when Roberts crashed in lap four. Roberts was unhurt but due to his Yamaha R6's condition, he was unable to remount.

The Wheels In Motion/ MotoSport.com/ Meen Yamaha is now heading to Road America third in the Supersport championship with Josh Herrin trailing by just 7 points and 2nd in the Superstock championship with Joe Roberts trailing by 2 points. Roberts and Herrin are both very familiar with the 4.048 mile course and the Team has had good success at Road America in the past.
