By Billy Rainford I’m not gonna lie, most of the time as I’m typing my Monday Morning Coffee I have a huge bucket of tea in my hand. But this week, I’ve finally made it back to cell service and I’m sitting in a Tim Hortons in Golden, BC taking a look at all my stuff from the weekend…and I have a large COFFEE in my hand. We all made
By Billy Rainford Well, the day has finally arrived. It’s time to load up the #DMXVan and point her west to Round 1 of the 2023 Canadian Triple Crown Series Motocross Nationals. I was hoping to have a new-and-improved vehicle to start this year’s travels out, but it looks like it’l be in the little red van one more time. I don’t even have a problem with that. It’s great
By Billy Rainford Happy May 24th Long Weekend, everyone! I hope the weather wherever you are is perfect and you’re able to get out and do whatever it is you feel like doing today. Likely, if you’re reading this, you’re on your way to or at a track somewhere. My plan for the day is to tag along with Greg Poisson and head over to the Dean Brother’s track in
By Billy Rainford Grab yourself another cup and let’s dive into this Monday Morning Coffee. Emily is still over in Italy until later this week, so that means I’m still at the helm here at the house and trying to help out with a few of the things that Em does here, like house plants and the garden. I don’t have the “greenest” thumb so let’s just say we may

By Billy Rainford Emily and I made it back from Nashville pretty late last night. Because she also had Monday off from work, we were really in no hurry to pack up and leave what is now a top3 city in the United States for us. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I dislike country music but you shouldn’t let your musical preferences stop you from visiting
By Billy Rainford Good Monday Morning Coffee from…hold on, let me open Google Maps… Good Monday Morning Coffee from Camden, South Carolina, on I-20 about an hour east of Columbia and about an hour south of Club MX. The plan for today is to stop in there to check in on any Canadians who are still there putting in the work for the upcoming Canadian Triple Crown Series. After a
By Billy Rainford Happy Easter Monday Morning Coffee. It’s a stat holiday in a couple provinces and an optional one in another. I’m in Ontario and it’s not an official holiday here. If you’re off today, enjoy it. We have made the switch to spring here. In fact, we’re going to be 24 C and sunny for the better part of the week! Greg Poisson and I plan to head
By Billy Rainford Grab a cup before we start this week’s Monday Morning Coffee. We’ll wait… Well, I’ll start off by saying there were a few lame April Fools jokes that were tried to be pulled on Saturday and there were a couple that had me going for a split second. I’ve been a little gun shy with the whole idea of trying to string people along on April 1st.
By Billy Rainford Well, this is the first Monday Morning Coffee after being at a local track for the first time of the 2023 season, and it feels great. Winter came back and kicked us in the ass pretty hard here in Southwestern Ontario. “In like a lamb, out like a lion” is what they say about March, and they nailed it this year.
