ICYMI | Catching Up with Guillaume St Cyr By Billy Rainford In case you missed it, we caught up with #25 Guillaume St Cyr: Two riders always remind me of our old friend, Jeff McConkey – Cade Clason is one and #25 Guillaume St Cyr is the other.

ICYMI | Catching Up with Liam O’Farrell | Atlas Brace I remember getting to know Liam O’Farrell while I was driving around in a 1989 Buick Electra Estate Wagon broadcasting the Canadian MX Nationals live over Pirate Radio for MX Forum.
