Log Road
MX Motocross April 4th & 5th 2009
After
three great Log Road MX Open Rides,
Mother Nature threw us a curveball that brought us over 6 hours of rain
and a forecast of afternoon snow showers and forced us to call off the March 29th
MX event. That means the Log Road April 4th & 5th
season opener will be the first full weekend of racing in the 2009 GLMX era!
Both events are open to bikes, quads and minis. Change is hard for a lot of us,
but we truly feel that this new beginning will mean bigger and better things
for you the riders. One point that immediately comes to mind is that ZERO
DOLLARS of your district membership went to the year end awards banquet
supporting its riders. That will not be the case with the GLMX group.
Our
first three Open Ride events proved that our tradition as one of the best
prepped tracks in the state is still going strong and more improvements and
changes are in the works. If you like what weÕre doing, tell a friend - and if
you donÕt, tell us! It is the only way we will know what we need to work at.
Our next Open Ride on Sunday, April 19th will be a good one as Dave
Bowman and his Tech-Care crew will be out for suspension set-ups and we will be
having our 3rd Annual Log Road Safety Day, giving our riders a
chance to demo a Leatt or EVS Neck brace
A
good friend of ours, Jeff Heaston, was tragically injured a couple of weeks ago
racing and has a tough road ahead of him. In support of Jeff and his wife Beth,
Log Road is going to have a for fun money-moto. A donation of $5 or more will
get you an extra 5 laps at intermission on Saturday, April 5th with
all the funds going to Jeff and his wife Beth in their time of need.
The
Track was sealed up tight after last SaturdayÕs Open Ride and will be ready to
go Saturday morning and the extended forecast for Sunday is solid until late
afternoon, which should ensure some great racing and a strong turnout of
riders. Matt Day and the Hotshotz Photography team will be on hand shooting all
the on track action. Mad MikeÕs MiniÕs will be on hand all weekend long
offering up great deals for the riders on all your parts and accessory needs.
To
steal a phrase from Òthe GOATÓ, weÕre super pumped to get the 2009 Log Road
racing season underway and we look forward to seeing you April 4th
and 5th at the GLMX season opener.
Go
fast, stay safe and have fun.
