The race for the coveted Rider of the Year (RoY) title got more interesting after veteran motocross rider Glenn Aguilar ruled the 10th leg of the Kopiko Astig 3-in-1 Supercross Series in Dumaguete City yesterday.
Aguilar won the titles in the pro-open category and the international category, where he beat rivals Jon Eleazar Adlawan of Cebu, Rhowell Mangosong IV and Danish Emil Jepsen.
In the international category, Adlawan finished second, Mangosong third and Jepsen third.
