Ride season is officially here! With warm weather and sunshine almost all of the tracks in Nova Scotia are open to riders to kick off the 2012 season. I finally was able to get on my new RMZ250F and absolutely love it! I want to send out a huge thanks to Anthony and Adam Turner of Podium1 Suspension and Turner Engineering who put together one amazing engine and suspension package that is absolutely unreal on all levels.

Jessica Malaknejadorangi, also known around the track as “Longname”, can be found riding a Honda CRF250R in the Ladies class and, from time-to-time, the youth class to get some seat time in the Atlantic CMRC Motocross Series.

Seventeen year-old Konnor “Konnah” Long has blasted on to the Atlantic motocross scene in the last three years. He quickly jumped from a CR80 to a Honda CRF250R this year.

This guy is destined to be a pro and is working like a dog to make it happen. While most riders are pulling out the snowboard and skis, this dedicated racer will be heading south of the border to train and race for three or four months during the winter. He is very dedicated in his goal to be a well known amateur rider and to eventually travel across Canada to race against the very best.

 Well with the weather here on the East Coast getting colder and flurries starting to linger on the forecast our riding season has come to a close, a bunch of us suited up and headed to Steve Daling's Birch Hill practice track in Pictou County for the last ride of the season.
