Muscle Milk Sponsors "Recovery Ride of the Day"
For Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (May 23, 2009) - Building on the success of its inaugural campaign a season ago, the Muscle Milk Recovery Ride of the Day award will return for each of the 12 stops on the 2009 Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship.
The Muscle Milk Recovery Rider of the Day is an award designed to recognize the one rider in each class that posts the best increase in finish position from Moto 1 to Moto 2 for both, with a $500 per class payout presented on the podium by the Muscle Milk girls each round.
"The Muscle Milk Recovery Ride of the Day was an instant success last summer," said Nikki Brown, VP of Marketing for CytoSport. "The Muscle Milk product line is a perfect fit for outdoor motocross and is excellent in assisting in the athlete's recovery after each ride. Awarding the rider who shows the most recovery on the track goes hand in hand with the product."
Muscle Milk is presenting sponsor for the MDK/KTM Race Team and its Muscle Milk product is also used by several of the top professional riders in the sport.
