Hansen and Villopoto to Ride the US Open

As of today, it has been confirmed that Ryan Villopoto will, indeed, contest the U.S. Open in Las Vegas. Joining him in green will be Josh Hansen. "Lil' Hanny" has landed another one-race deal with the venerable Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki team. Hansen will ride out of Payton's Pro Circuit rig, as he did at the Summer X Games a few months ago, and will race the U.S. Open on a KX450F.
