About
Ryan Clark began Team Solitaire out of a 1994 Toyota Previa Van. With the backing of a few friends, Ryan contested the 2002 AMA Motocross National Series and made a name for himself. Having bounced between a few "teams" from 1998 thru 2001, he decided to take fate into his own hands. Team Solitaire grew from modest roots into a full-blown factory support effort, having notched a podium finish with team rider Bob Kiniry in 2008.

Mike Alessi Video Update
The first time I met Mike and Jeff was at High Point, a few weeks before the National. Mike and Jeff were just transitioning to big bikes, and they had no idea who I was – despite the fact that I was doing pretty well. I thought they were cocky young kids, which they were, but at the same time I found them entertaining and good natured. At the end of the day, they knew who I was as I was steadily pulling away from Mike (who at the time was an Amateur phenom).

Privateer Profile – Ryan Clark
After qualifying for three main events in the 2012 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series, I was certain that my phone would be ringing off the hook for interviews, radio opportunities, photo shoots and possibly a factory ride. But much like the expired milk residing at the back of the refrigerator, the industry knows I am there but just don’t want to put me in their mouth. (yes, that was intentional) So, being the opportunist that I am, I have decided to do my own interview. So suck it.
Ryan Clark – The Journalist: Ryan, you had a marginal season, at best, this year. How did you feel about it?
Ryan Clark – The Rider: You know, I was happy in the way that a person is happy about barely passing a class in school. You know you should be doing better, but in the end you made it through and moved on to the next grade, hoping that next time you are more prepared. And faster.

Heading into the final round of the 2012 AMA Supercross Series in Las Vegas, I was both excited and a little sad. I was looking forward to racing in front of a lot of my friends from Phoenix, and hopeful to make the main event, but I was also a little bummed about the series ending and my income stream coming to an abrupt halt.
