We sold every 2013 we had so if your thinking of one think fast ...pun intended .As always some will be demo models for a demo ride or an informative chat on the new stuff give me a call . In other news i finally blew dust off my now vintage former pro 250 gp class Honda factory road race bike, to race with the VRRA I entered the new GP class for pure factory roadrace bikes or as one chap said the "sounds like very angry bees " class.Very cool class with nothing but real race bikes i think 16 250"s and a swarm of 125ers behind us my bike won every race it startedand was the class of the field with a lap record each event i entered .Had a mechanical dns at Mosport and scored 0 points there for a 2nd overall at the end of the season .I also entered the Period 4 middleweight class with one of the largest fields in this race group and found the cbr"s and fzr"s fiesty but not consistantly competitive as i won both rounds at Shannonville and got a close 2nd at St Eustache after a great race with a local current pro national competitor on a FZR and was nipped after a very memorable race but needed one more point to win this class title so 2nd is this seasons finish in this class as well ...oh well theres always next year as they say.Anyway get your riding goin on the season will be over soon enough as deer hunting will be starting as always on the first monday of nov and the trails will be closed for the season.If you have any questions give us a call at the shop anytime and remember...for the last 10 years ive been building trails for folks like you to actually ride and enjoy this great sport with.I dont just talk about supporting the sport as goes the popular line goes ...i have put up a huge personal effort to build trails and host events ETC. so how about you support the shop that really does do more for the sport .Talk is cheep chain saws cost money...see you out there Woody
