The parking lot was packed. The beautiful weather on Sunday and the newly designed track brought riders from as far away as Smithers, Fort St. John and a whole lot more from Prince George.
With Quesnel’s motocross race only two weeks away, every one wanted to take a day and practice before the big event.
Brain Watson, Scott Davis and Rob Jose have been working for weeks redesigning the track, adding a few new straight stretches, corners and some impressive jumps. It’s breath taking views from above allows you to watch almost the entire track. Brian Watson commented that at times it was difficult getting work done once school was out as the local riders came out almost daily to ride. By Friday he said they had to shut the track down completely so they could finish the upgrades before the weekend as he knew riders would be out to practice, but didn’t expect the amount of people that came out. It was very impressive.
Riders from Prince George also commented they love the track and the new changes. The day was split up between the big bikes and smaller bikes running half hour motos so even the newest riders, could spend time without being intimidated by the skilled airborne riders. Club member’s brought out friends who wanted a taste of the sand and sun, and rode until the sun went down.
Memberships can be purchased at Full Throttle or Outback B.C. for anyone wanting to come out and ride either for fun or to experience the thrill of racing.
