Team Honda Muscle Milk’s Trey Canard and GEICO Honda’s Eli Tomac will make their anticipated returns to racing this weekend at the St. Louis stop of the Monster Energy Supercross series.

Canard returns to racing aboard his factory Honda-prepared CRF450R, having recovered from a broken arm sustained while preparing for the 2014 supercross season.

“I’m really looking forward to getting back out there and racing with all these guys each week,” said Canard. “Since getting back on my bike and training for motos, everything has gone smoothly.

“I’ve been riding a lot at home in Oklahoma, and the Honda team came out and did some testing with me last week. I feel really good and my CRF450R is working awesome. However, I expect it will take a little while to get up to full race speed, but I will give 100 percent effort regardless.”

Tomac will return to his first full 450SX season in round 13, coming back after missing the last three events with an aggravated shoulder injury sustained at Daytona.

“I really do expect to be at the same level where I was before,” Tomac said. “It certainly isn’t a given but I expect a lot out of myself, and I hope to get some more podiums before the year is out.”

“I’m rested and ready for the last five races of the season,” Tomac said. “I’m fully recovered, and I honestly feel better now than when I did at the start of the season.”

“I’m 100 percent and ready to go racing. I put in a lot of hard work to come back, riding as much as I can over these last few weeks. We’ve done a lot of work on my GEICO Honda, too, and it’s right where I want it.”
