Ste Julie Friday Photos

By James Lissimore

We're here at the Circuit de Ste Julie, near Montreal, Quebec for round 6 of the 2011 CMRC Canadian motocross season and it looks like it's going to be another warm one this weekend. I thought I'd share a few photos from a pretty lowkey day at the track. Most people were just trying there best to stay out of the sun and save what they've got for race day. Stay tuned to DMX tomorrow for more photos from Saturday at the Ste Julie facility.

Bryton Allison gets to putting on some fresh graphics on his YZ250F.

Jared Stock was also hard at work, freshening up his race and practice bikes.

Fast Intermediate rider, Michael DaSilva, will be trying his hand at the pro national on Sunday.

Kevin Urquhart is a true privateer. Here he works on washing up his race bike. It turns out the front wheel was out of round.

Ste Julie marks the second round of the Women's East series. Taylor Miller looks to make it two wins in a row after he win at the opening round last weekend.

The Ste Julie track is one of the most picturesque track's on the National circuit.

This uphill before the finish line is a lot steeper than it looks.

Paul Rak maps out the track so he can figure out the best way for he and his crew to make it look awesome come Sunday.
