Private Ride Day Great Fun!

Relaxed and fun, that's the best way to describe the Sierra MC Private Ride Day. You show up early ride as many laps as you want on the well groomed track. When you get tired you sit back with old friends and tell tall tales about how fast you were riding. Everyone is smiling and having a good time. Maybe you just want to watch other riders take a section you're having trouble with...well there is usually a former national pro or two out showing they still go fast. After a few motos and some time in the shade lunch is ready. Grilled burgers, dogs, chilli and cold drinks for everyone. A few more laps after lunch and then the crowd begins to form for the raffle. Anticipation is high because there is some great swag. Several riders went home with Works Connection Hour Meters and one lucky guy got a Fly chest protector but most had their hopes up for the Works Connection Factory Stand. A huge groan went up when the winning number was called because there could be only one winner and he was grinning from ear to ear. Think about it, no screaming mini's, no 75 guys all trying to get in the same practice, a groomed and watered track, hot lunch and a chance to go home with more than you came with. That's a pretty good day of riding.

What helps make this possible is the companies that support our sport. We all have a choice on where we spend our dollars. The next time you need something for riding remember these vendors. They give back to our sport.

And a very special thanks to Jared from MMX for working to make these ride days a success.
