As Monster Energy Supercross heads to Glendale for the first Triple Crown of the year, and the New Jersey native is hungry step atop the podium, although is willing to take it step by step to get there.

“It feels just as good [to get on the podium] as last weekend, I am so happy,” said Hartranft. “I’m starting to believe in myself a lot more.

“I definitely want to win – that’s the main goal – but I’m just going to take it step by step and make the weeks count.”
