Sign up for the WEC Email News Release for all the latest news and event information Our News sections are updated regularly - check out the latest in the Canadian Off Road Scene Enduro News Trials News Cross Country News Breaking News Jan 19 - The 2012 Season is upon us! Time to get your motorcycle ready for another season of racing! We are very close to finalizing all the details for the 2012 Canadian Championship season. We are pleased welcome back many of our previous sponsors and some new ones – this series could not happen with out the strong support of companies like Royal Distributing, Yamaha, KTM, and Honda!! We look forward to the return of many of the fastest off road racers in Canada. Lots of questions will be answered. Will KTM’s Bobby Prochnau be able to continue his dominance now that he has a full plate of racing in the US? Is this the year KTM’s Geoff Nelson or maybe Husaberg’s Ben Rego unseats him? Will Honda’s Jason Schrage bounce back from his back luck in Quebec last season to regain the #1 plate he held last season?? Is this the year that Yamaha’s Brian Wojnarowski moves to the top of the podium? Which riders will move up from the amateur ranks to the Pro level? The series will begin at an all new location in Vernon, BC on July 7 & 8 hosted by the Vernon Off Road Motorcycle Club. Pre-registration is already open! After BC the series moves to scenic Blairmore, AB on July 14 & 15th. Clint’s Full Gas crew is planning some great new mountain trails to entertain and challenge everyone! The event will be taking place on the same weekend as the Thunder in the valley fireworks show so hotel space is very limited. I happen to know that as of today there are a few rooms at the Coleman & Blairmore Best Canadian Motor Inn so if your planning to attend and need a room CALL RIGHT away as the next closest hotel is 40 minutes away in Pincher Creek. Coleman 403-563-5600 Blairmore 403-562-8851. The series moves to the east in September. Big news for 2012 is our partnership with the FMSQ who will be hosting the Quebec round at a new location! We are working with the FMSQ and our Ontario crew to finalize the best dates and locations which will be announced in February. Please keep an eye on this for more details – we will be updating it regularly in the next few months with both our National and regional event news. Jan 16 - WEC mourns the passing of Mika Ahola Five time World Enduro Champion Mika Ahola passed away yesterday from a surgery complication. He had just announced his retirement a few weeks earlier and was looking forward to the next chapter in his life. We had the pleasure to meet Mika and spend a bit of time with him and his lovely wife when they came to North America in 2006 & 2007 for the first ever Canadian & US rounds of the Enduro World Championship. Mika was a true professional and will be sadly missed.
