After months of speculation an rumors on the future of Austin Forkner and his career, we can now say who he will be riding for in the 2025 season…thanks to his old trainer Ryan Hughes.
Apparently, Hughes had lunch with Forkner today to wish him well on his journey East to ride for Triumph.
To be honest, after the year that Forkner has had, we’re just happy to see that he wants to continue racing.
I trust Ryno’s words…all the way down to his ‘unlocking the hips’ movement, so this is legit. It’s not a press release, but it’ll do.
The switch to Triumph will take some time to adjust for us, as we haven’t seen Forkner on anything other than a Kawasaki since the 2011 season. He’s been green since Ryan Holliday picked him up after dominating the 85 (9-11) Stock and Modified classes at Loretta Lynn’s in 2010 on a Suzuki.
We’ll keep an eye out for an official PR from Triumph, until then…
Good job Ryno. Keep being you mate.
