FXR Ride Day | Photo Gallery

by Dawn McClintock Photos by James Lissimore When the western portion of the Canadian MX nationals finishes up every year, for FXR athletes and friends of FXR, that means we all meet at the crossroads for our annual FXR Ride Day. A standing tradition for the FXR family is to once a year have a gathering for both pro and amateur to break some bread, have some laughs and most importantly shred a few laps on our private track. This year was no different except for perhaps larger numbers turning out. Our athlete roster this year included many of our pro riders racing the Canadian MX nationals, a number of local amateur riders as well as special guests Jimmy Decotis, Mike Brown and a side-lined Canadian MX Ladies, multi-time AMA Off-road and EnduroX champion, Shelby Turner. Tucked between canola fields, just outside of Winnipeg is a picturesque setting for the site of the annual ride day. This is also the one time a year that I fly into HQ to catch up with everyone that works at FXR as well as our athletes and every year it seems to get larger and is always a fun time. Last year was our first attempt at a two-day format and this year we continued with that but switch things up a bit turning the second day into a riding school with some of our top pro riders instructing amateur riders at the Zhoda MX track. We will dip into the riding school day a bit later but for now, let's take a look at some of the shots from the 2018 Ride Day from our good friend James Lissimore who joined us. Hope to see you out for next year's ride day!
