Heading west?

From CMRC Racing

In an attempt to get more eastern riders to the Western Canadian Amateur National in Raymond, AB, Barry Ferguson of Cliffshore Racing is providing a truck and trailer to haul up to 30 bikes and gear for anyone interested in racing the event.

The event takes place from Thursday June 29 until Saturday July 1, but the rig will be in Calgary a week earlier for the Pro national at the Wild Rose MX Park.

“It’s a cheap way for a family who has an Amateur, Pro and Women’s rider to race at Calgary and then the Western Amateur National the following week,” says Ferguson.

The cost to transport bike and gear per person is $300, and $600 for anyone interested in shipping out their street bike. The minimum number of riders needed to cover the travel cost is 13, up to a maximum of 30. Ferguson says he needs to have the minimum number by mid-May in order to get everything organized. If he has that minimum number by then, he will take entries up until the truck leaves on Monday June 19 after the Wheatley provincial.

This is a great opportunity for eastern riders to experience the WCAN, a great race track and possibly add another championship to their resume. It’s also a chance for women racers to attend the Women’s national in Calgary the weekend prior to the CWAN and for MX1 Pro riders to race an additional round before the series resumes back east.
