Well, for those who have been waiting for true indoor racing to return tonight is the night you’ve been waiting for. Night one of the Sarnia AX goes tonight and the racing will no doubt be exciting.
There will be a few new faces on the starting line this weekend in Sarnia and one of them will be Kawasaki rider Tanner Ward. Word is that Jeremy McKie and Chris Blackmer may also be lining up.
Local boy and fan favourite Cole Thompson has been looking forward to the return to Sarnia more than anyone else. The stands will no doubt be packed with a lot of CT16 fans!
Even though Team Canada had a rough day at Red Bud how cool was it to see Team USA will in front of their hometown fans? Also, there is nothing quite as entertaining as seeing Eli Tomac celebrating the way he was on Sunday night.
This past week another Surfin Berms event took place at Wild Rose MX Park in Calgary. These events have been extremely popular this summer and the local WMX riders are fortunate to have them.
Next weekend the 2022 World SX Championships will officially kick off in Cardiff, Wales. Sadly, there won’t be any Canadians lining up but we can still cheer for Cade Clason and Phil Nicoletti who have spent some time racing up here.
Not only did Team Canada have a rough day at Red Bud but so did our boys in the Pit Bike race. However, our boys in red and white were all smiles after the race.
Our friend Steve Simms is still in the hospital trying to recover well so he can get the hell home. This week, thanks to Scott Donkersgoed a GoFundMe Page was set up and so far it has exceeded expectations.
This week FXR Racing announced it was accepting applications for race support for the 2023 season. You can send your resume to www.fxracing.com
For this Friday our Rider of the Week is Dylan Wright who dug deep to finish 10th in the final moto at Red Bud. During that race, Dylan battled with several factory riders from the MXGP Series. Well done Dylan!
