Parts Canada Walton TransCan – The Champions By Billy Rainford We’ve had over a week now to come up for air and regroup after a rather grueling week of amateur racing at the 2015 Parts Canada TransCan. Just when I thought I was going to have a ton of time to get caught up, along comes another race and I get behind. Anyway, let’s have a look at all the

Canadians at Ironman MX

Canadians at Ironman MX By Billy Rainford We may not be sending a team to Ernée, France, for the 2015 Motocross of Nations, but the Canada flag was flying proudly over foreign land this past Saturday in Crawfordsville, Indiana.

It was also our second time visiting the province of Quebec – the part of Canada that is synonymous with motorsports enthusiasm.

Faces at the Races – Moncton National Photos and captions by Billy Rainford After a 17-plus hour drive from Ontario Friday night, Jeff and I were a little haggered to say the least for round 8 at River Glade MX in Moncton, New Brunswick.
