We we are at the end of July and that means it's time for another Trophy Night. Our race on July 29th will also be the 4th race in the Vancouver Island Challenge Series or VIC. The VIC is a fun race series that allows riders of all ages and skill level to compete toward earning the title of Vancouver Island Champion. You can find information on this series by clicking on the VIC tab above. The VIC is a regular local race so the price is the same and there is no "qualifying" that has to be done.
A couple of weeks ago the 3rd and 4th rounds of the ABA Canada National Series took place in Victoria and 8 Erik Goetzinger riders competed in the event. Alison Grecht, Aiden Grecht, Alex Grecht, Taylor Fretz Rayden Wickop, Levi Palmiere, Sheldon Trees and Gerald Trees made the trip down and all raced well.
Finally, Erik Goetzinger member Sheldon Trees just returned from the BC Summer Games in Kelowna where he represented Zone 6, Vancouver Island - Central Coast in BMX along with Nanaimo's Steven Creighton. This is the first year BMX has been included in the Summer Games and it was a success. Sheldon had a good weekend finishing 4th in the Time Trial event, just 4 tenths of a second out of earning a medal but made up for it in the race event taking the Bronze Medal. Creighton came home with the Gold.
