We are back racing on Tuesday, July 8th with the registration time being the same.  6:00 PM to 6:30 PM.  

Since our last race the first two rounds of the ABA Canada National Series took place in Prince George and Erik Goetzinger club members had a great showing.  Young Aiden Grecht our 4 year old intermediate, took a 2nd on Saturday and 1st on Sunday.  Brother Alex, came away with 4th on both days in the 7 expert class and sister Alison took 3rd both days in the 8 girls class.  Gerald Trees had a crash in 1st round qualifying on Saturday but managed to make the main in the 41-45 cruiser class, finishing 5th.  He was not able to qualify out on Sunday.  Sheldon Trees took 3rd both days in the 15 cruiser class, and was the top Canadian 15 year old in that class and took 4th in the 15 expert class on Saturday and 3rd on Sunday.  Congratulations on the great results.

On July 19th and 20th the 3rd and 4th rounds of the ABA Canada National series will take place in Victoria.  Anyone is allowed to race this event and more information can be found at the ABA Website that can be linked from the Home Page.  Even if you don't want to race, take the opportunity to drive down to watch at least one of the days of racing as the top Canadian and North West US BMX racers will be there.  It doesn't cost anything to watch.
