“ Ben is a classic work hard, play hard guy that enjoys racing and pushing himself to do better.  Kitimat can be proud of an ambassador such as Ben ‘the Giant Killer’ Rego” – Lee Fryberger

From CGRT - Wardlow, AB:  Ormstown QC was the site for Round 1 of the Royal Distributing Canadian Cross Country Championships, September 2.  A dry summer in the eastern provinces have left venues very dusty and Ormstown was no different.  The rocky soil, combined with the dust presented a very different racing environment for the westerners.

Wardlow AB: The eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains provided a beautiful venue for the Wildhorse Harescrambles. A 10km course of wet, slippery roots, and stump infested clear cuts challenged riders to keep themselves on two wheels.

Cole Dobovich ( Provost, AB ) holeshot the Pro class start, leading into the first lap while CGRT veteran rider, Shane Cuthbertson missed the kickstart lever on his bike and was dead last. Once settling down from the mistake on the start, Shane charged his way past the pack, taking the lead by the end of the first lap. Shane pushed hard, posting lap times one minute faster than second place finisher Ty McKenna ( KTM, A&E Racing and Marine ).

After 2 hours of pushing, Shane topped the field, followed by Ty, and Cole on the final podium position. “ A great effort by Shane, he’s been riding very well this season, and really liking the TE 300. And I’m very happy to see the young guys on the podium, learning from the veterans like Shane and applying those skills to their own racing”, states CGRT manager Lee Fryberger.

The junior member of the team, Cole Dobovich had this to say, “I’m felt a little uncomfortable with the loose logs in the clear cut, but its something I’ve got to work with and get more confident in so I can push harder. Otherwise my bike worked well, especially my suspension, very happy with Pro-Action Suspension.”

Wardlow, AB: The Idaho City 100 has always been a favourite of CGRT’s. The event is a qualifier for the US ISDE team and runs by the same rules as the ISDE and after over 100 miles a day of great trails by the Boise Ridge Riders, a guy definitely feels that the effort getting there was well worth it.

CGRT had one of the those weekends that’s sees its racers go home and regroup, adjust and get prepared for the next event.

Provost, AB’s Cole Dobovich went to the second round of the Alberta Dirt Riders Association’s off road calendar, the Porcupine Hills Cross Country.  Consisting of two separate 50 km loops, riders ride a long event where they do not race across the same course twice.
