Submitted by:  Marco Dubé The third round of the Canadian Championship is now finished. Sunday was a day of rain, sun, wind and cold, lots of cold.

I am very disappointed, but the idea of being discouraged is far from my mind. Luckily I did not hurt…

The results for the top three riders in the MX1 class where perhaps not a surprise to many. Medaglia, Keast and Klatt! The first two have ridden this track more often than I've had hot dinners. Klatt can win a moto anytime he puts his mind to it. For those of you who…

In the main I got a bad start but by…

Practice went well the track was loose and pretty rough. The bike worked well and I had no…
