Round 4 of the 2015 KTM MMRS Provincial Series took place this weekend in Madoc, Ontario. Home of the ‘must do’ Madoc National at the end of summer, the fast track lends itself well to some great racing. Riders at MMRS events are some of the friendliest you’ll see at a race. Here’s a look at some of them.

Nice to see Brandon Pearson back at the races after taking a year and a half off due to a nasty leg injury.

With son Brandon finally back, it was nice to see Howard Pearson back at the races doing his thing.

The big number 1 KTM of Eve Brodeur made the trip to Madoc. From what I saw this weekend, it is going to be a very long summer for the rest of the field. She looks that good!

 I was excited to see Eve Brodeur sow off her custom made Forma boots, but unfortunately someone packed two rights.

It’s great to see how strong the Sparks family is, and how well they are doing after a scary Florida crash.
