Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | June 2023 By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans, I have been so excited composing this column I almost submitted it a few weeks ago! Though, I hit the pause button. I felt there would be more inspiration along the way, so I delayed bringing my art into the world. Speaking of delay, lately, I’ve been reminded that delay does not mean denial. In fact,
By Billy Rainford Wow, it took me an entire day to recover from that humidity at Red Bud. Friday for the MX Combine was off-the-charts hot! I bet if you talked to any one of them who were on the line they’d tell you it was comparable to Loretta Lynn’s in Tennessee in August. Saturday started out overcast and bearable but then the clouds moved away and the day got

By Billy Rainford I just couldn’t do 2 weeks in a row away from the races, so when I found out my old buddy #55 Cary Hitchen was racing the TVR event on the back track (GDR Factory track) at Gopher Dunes, I dragged Emily over to Courtland to make sure I was there for it and to commit it to permanent archives with some photos and video. It was
Faces at the Races | Round 2 – Kamloops By Billy Rainford Let me start out by saying this: race days have gotten so busy that it’s more difficult to get back and forth to the pits to see what everyone’s doing throughout the day. I assume the spectators like it, but me, on the other hand, not so much. Having said that, it’s time to take a look at
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.

Off the Cuff with Jacqueline Ross | May 2023 By Jacqueline Ross Greetings, Humans, Usually, I always view life as a grand adventure; a magical, mystery tour! Lately, it’s still magical, but let me tell you, in other areas it feels more like I’ve been on the struggle bus. It’s been rough and trying, but we all know giving up is not an option. At this point it feels like
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
