More Podium Action at Calgary
Nick Evennou(r) gets on the podium at Calgary
We were in Calgary this weekend at Wild Rose MX Park. This place is really cool, it's right in the middle of the city and the downtown skyscrapers dominate the skyline. Plus, the hotel is within walking distance so this round is definitely one of the most looked forward to of the year.
Things went well for the team this weekend. After last weekend's misfortunes for Nick and Brock it was great to see them both turn things around in a big way. Plus, Teddy established that he's the number one contender for the title this season.
Nick was so happy to get back on the podium. He's had a huge monkey on his back for a while now and to finish second in the final moto took a huge weight off his shoulders. He is looking forward to backing it up in Edmonton next weekend.
For Brock, his 5th in the first moto established that he belongs with the leaders and he knows he can be there every moto now. It's great to see his confidence grow with every race.
Now they're off to Castrol Raceway in Edmonton next weekend, another track that has great facilities and lots of spectators. Should be another great weekend for the Leading Edge Kawasaki team.
Here's a few photos from Calgary....
