Catching Up with…Dave Blanchet

Catching Up with…Dave Blanchet By Billy Rainford If you were looking for a Canadian rider to cheer for in the Eastern rounds of Supercross this past season, your eyes would have been focused on Quebec rider, #418 Dave Blanchet. Dave has been a Pro rider for a few years now and has always wanted to give Supercross a try. He got his dream this winter with the PR-MX team. It

It’s a real bummer that the weather was
