Some cool news over on CMG... https://canadamotoguide.com/2024/12/02/kawasaki-contingency/

Excellent news. One entity down, one to go.

Do SOAR folks usually race the national? My understanding was there's been very few of you folks on the grid in the past few years.

Looks like there'll be more demos at the Shannonville CSBK round next weekend too.

Why are people shocked that if you crash a motorcycle being a goon on a test ride it's your own fault and your problem? Do people expect OEMs to just sacrifice a dozen bikes to a bunch of old guys who won't ever buy a new one anyway?

DUDE! Young gun coming through!

Here's the race I mentioned above, if you watch this and don't think you're watching great racing then I don't how to help you! :D

Also I just watched the second Pro Sportbike race from Grand Bend on TSN - It was brilliant. Four different leaders and multiple lead changes plus some extra chaos to entertain folks! Should be on YouTube in a couple of weeks.

I know there's a bit of sniping and chirping from some people who only look at grid counts and never actually go to a race, but you'd be shocked by how good the racing actually is right now in CSBK! There have been 4 winners from 8 races in CSBK Pro SBK this year, and 5 in Pro Sportbike. On...

KT Tape. You can use it in different configurations to reduce arm pump when racing, and in this case it's probably to mitigate pain from finger injuries like tendonitis or arthritis.

Let's hope nobody who makes decisions about whether or not to bring out the demo rides reads that one, hey?

CTMP is going to be awesome. There definitely won't be flat track or drag racing there though! I'm hoping there'll be manufacturer demo rides for fans.

I'd have to have someone show me a pic of the program, it's not on any documents I got during the weekend, but I don't have a program. Let me ask you this though: Where at Grand Bend is there even a flat track for them to race on?

For what it's worth, here's Race 1 from that weekend, I think you'd agree this is pretty compelling racing!

The drag show didn't happen because it poured rain. Not a lot you can do about that! The show-n-shine was disappointing, I agree. That was poorly organized. Flat Track racing wasn't on the agenda for Grand Bend, that was on for Shannonville, where it DID happen, and it was awesome. The...

I was pretty impressed by the show that CSBK put on at Shannonville, they had stunters, freestyle MX and music. The fan zone was an actual fan zone - it was pretty good to see the event get more enticing for fans. Looks like they're going to do a similar deal at Grand Bend, and it's even...

Good yarn from David Booth on this subject. https://driving.ca/column/motor-mouth/canadas-youngest-international-motorcycle-road-racers-minigp-motogp-gofundme

They need to figure out how to add an electric motor and a battery and somehow make it the same weight as a bike that doesn't have those things? Do you think the Sonata hybrid should weight the same as the Sonata? Or the BMW i3 without an onboard generator motor should weigh the same as one...

Canada gets both versions.
