Broc Tickle Returns to the SML Show
Presented by OGIO Powersports and FMF Racing
The February 15 Tampa Supercross marked the competition return of Broc Tickle following his FIM suspension for a trace amount of a banned substance found in his urine sample following the 2018 San Diego Supercross. The former Western Regional 250 Supercross Champion originally planned to field his own privateer effort with help from AEO Powersports and Twisted Development, but Tickle was recruited to fill in on the JGRMX/Yoshimura/Suzuki Factory Racing team for the injured Joey Savatgy.Â
Tickle’s return to action was impressive and his reception from the fans was warm. Sadly, his comeback came to an abrupt halt the following weekend when he broke his hand in a first-lap crash at the Arlington Triple Crown. Still, it was obvious that Tickle is as competitive as ever and it is certainly good to have him back at the track. We invited Tick to join us on the SML Show a few weeks ago, before the whole COVID-19 pandemic brought racing to an abrupt halt.
