SUCCESS. After 10 years off and having to sign up again as 250 expert I was pleasantly surprised this bike easily pulled the holeshot. I lead the first moto from start to finish. The second Moto was a different story as I was caught sleeping at the gate. I was the last rider off the line and third coming out of turn one, second coming out of turn two and then I did a bonehead move going for the lead and fell down and severely twisted my ankle and tore muscles in my other leg's hamstring. I got up and finished as I did not want to be carried off the track and still got second overall BUT I've been licking my wounds for over a week now. LOL The picture of the person on the bike is my youngest son. I let him race and he did very well too and loved the bike. These Can-Am Motors ROCK. Rick

His brothers were top tier FMX riders in the early days. I guess a rotten apple don't fall far from the tree. LOL

That's pretty cool Rick! Well, not the injury... I have some kind of CanAm project out back... can't remember what exactly. Too many projects out there! I last raced with AVDRA when they were at Speedworld. I sort of got dejected after that closed down, and haven't raced or even had the old Elsinore out since. Not sure I like the looks of the new track, but you never know... I might make it back down this season. Oscar |
