  We're back here on Vancouver Island as the series makes its return to the Wastelands track just outside of Nanaimo. The facility is in great shape and the weather has been holding out so it should be a great day of racing tomorrow. It was a pretty mellow day of prepping bikes and taking them through tech so here's a few quick photos before we get back at it tomorrow morning...

Welcome to Nanaimo's Wastelands MX track.

Frenchie preps the number 102 of Austin Politelli.
