An Open Letter to My Fans and the Racing Community
Dear Fans, Fellow Racers, and the Entire Motocross Family,
Today, I’m writing with a heart full of gratitude, reflection, and hope. Over the years, your unwavering support has fueled my passion for racing, even through the toughest of times. From the roaring cheers on race day to the messages of encouragement during my setbacks, you have been my greatest source of strength.
This letter comes as a pivotal moment in my career. After months of reflection and countless hours on the track, I’ve made the difficult decision to [insert specific decision or change, e.g., “step away from professional racing,” “transition to a new team,” “focus on a new chapter in life”]. This choice wasn’t made lightly, but I believe it’s the best path forward for my growth, health, and happiness.
Racing has been my life’s work and passion. But beyond the trophies and podiums, it’s the journey that stands out—the friendships, lessons, and memories that will last forever. The injuries and challenges I’ve faced have taught me resilience, and your support has reminded me why I’ve always fought to get back up.
As I turn this page, I want to reaffirm my commitment to the sport and its future. Whether it’s mentoring young riders, advocating for the sport, or simply being a fan, I’m not saying goodbye—just evolving.
To my sponsors, teams, and every individual who believed in me: thank you for making this incredible ride possible. To my fans: you are my family.
Here’s to new beginnings and the enduring love of racing.
With all my heart,
Ken Roczen
