Reflections on this summer

With the changing of the seasons comes a time not only for preparation for the upcoming winter but also for reflection on the past season. From the high profile of NASCAR to small races put on by local running or ridding clubs we have been there. Sometimes we are able to support only in spirit, sometimes physically. We are proud beyond measure to have been there to support many different teams throughout their highs and lows.

The Birkebiner

Our first year working with the people of the birke was awesome. We really enjoyed meeting the thousands of people that were there to race or to cheer on. We are looking forward to next year and new opportunities for working with them.

Dennis Prunty

Dennis Prunty brought home his 58th career Super Late Model Feature Win. He raced in over 20 races that spanned from Florida to Wisconsin and a few points in between. Around mid-summer he changed to a sleek new, pure fuel inspired, paint job.

Ashley Berton

“This summer I worked up to racing all the events at Copper Harbor Trails Fest, to try to take the overall title. I ended up taking second in the XC (winning my age group), second in the Enduro, and third in the downhill race claiming the overall “Queen of Copper Harbor” award. I built up to racing all the events for three years so it was pretty exciting!”

“Borah Epic was one of my favorites this season! I had a 5th place finish there. It’s always fun to compete on the incredible trail against the best in the Midwest!  I traveled to Vermont and earned my very first UCI point! “
