Marco Dube was back on the throttle this past weekend as the CMRC Canadian Motocross Series headed to the Shadow Valley Raceway in Mordin, Manitoba, for one moto at least.
Dube and the rest of the field battled mother nature as heavy rains made the track a muddy mess. The CMRC held the first moto on Sunday, but a rider boycott cancelled the second moto as the track was in no shape to ride.
"For Saturday's practice the track was dry and even dusty," said Dube. "As for Sunday, believe me it was a mud festival. The only thing I can add is that this race was the worst track, mud-wise, of my career."
In the only moto of the weekend for the top MX1 class, Dube moved his AMSOIL/KTM into the top ten after a slow start. While the field was unrecognizable due to the layers of mud on the bikes, Dube manuevered into fourth, despite falling a few times. He finally crossed the finish line in eighth.
Dube will follow the CMRC series to Regina Moto Valley in Regina, Saskatchewan for the fourth round of the circuit.
Until then, we'll see you at the race,
Jeremy Meyer
AMSOIL Racing Coordinator
