Ryan Villopoto (born August 13, 1988 in Poulsbo, Washington) is a motocross and supercross racer.
Villopoto competed in the AMA Supercross series and the AMA Lucas Oil Motocross series. The 4-time supercross and 3-time motocross champion resides in Minneola, Florida and raced for Monster Energy Kawasaki in the supercross and outdoor motocross series. His retirement from supercross was announced on January 3, 2015 on the opening day of the 2015 Monster Energy Supercross season. He retired from professional racing after finding out injuries sustained from a crash at the MXGP of Trentino were worse than they initially realized.
In 2010, Villopoto returned with the Monster Energy Kawasaki Team in the Supercross class and battled repeatedly with Ryan Dungey throughout the season.
While leading the Main of Round 14 at St Louis, Villopoto came up short on a triple jump and leaped from his bike landing hard. His bike dived into the face of the third jump and flipped over several times. Medical workers arrived on the scene and cut Villopoto's racing boot off his foot. Villopoto had to be carried off the track. Further examination revealed a broken right tibia and fibula and surgery was performed to stabilize it. Due to the extent of his injury, he was unable to complete the season.
Ryan may refer to:
He's the best rider on earth. He's the best rider of his generation. He's won everything there is to win. Yet, Ryan Villopoto is the most private, reserved and soft-spoken individual in the sport. Hailing from the school of walking softly and carrying a big stick, the supremely talented and fiercely determined athlete lets his riding - and winning ways - do the talking. To that end, Volcom set out to peel back the layers and dig out the soul and charisma of the champion. We traveled the nation over, meeting family, friends, industry members and a hero to discover the real RV. What we found, well, we'll let the film and Ryan do the talking.

Parecchio. Ho seguito tutti gli aggiornamenti, li ho visti e li ho sentiti. Non vedo l’ora di spenderci parecchio tempo guidandola per vedere esattamente cosa ha da offrire. Tutti sanno del tuo ritiro dalle competizioni. C’e’ qualche possibilità di vederti come tester o sviluppatore per Kawasaki? Questo è il mio piano. Sto cambiando un po' i ruoli, mi sto muovendo sempre di più verso le pubbliche relazioni e sono sempre più coinvolto con l’azienda Kawasaki per sviluppi e test. Sono motivato e non vedo l’ora di andare in Giappone, visto che non ci sono mai stato, per fare un tour della fabb...
