OTHG News
The year started off with a strong showing at REM and LACR! The first two races had 100 and 160 riders respectively! REM was a question mark for many of the board members. A race on Super Bowl Sunday was supposed to be a fail! Yet, no one told the 100 riders that showed up that you could not have a successful race on Super Bowl Sunday. Not only did we have 100 racers, we also had a visit from the RedBull Ladies, who were giving away free RedBull.
Round two of the 2015 Winter Series was hosted by LACR. To say this race was a success would be an understatement! Round 2 was attended by approximately 160 racers. I was surprised by the large turnout of racers. All the board members were in agreement that it would be a big day. However, none of us predicted 160 racers!
At REM we sold a five race package for the winter series. It was meet with a welcome response. As race entry fees go up, we will be looking to do the same thing for our Summer Series. I’ll keep you posted on that as we get closer to the Summer Series. Another new item we rolled out at LACR was the ability to pay for membership and race entries with your debit/credit card. This too was welcomed by a number of racers.
For those that raced at LACR you might have noticed the Winter Series trophies. The board heard the complaints of small plastic trophies! We will strive to keep unique and differant trophies coming. We have some cool trophies planned for the overall Winter Series winners.
The Board is looking at a number of other ideas to make your OTHG experience an awesome one! At round 5 of the Winter Series, we will be holding a raffle, having a BBQ for all racers and crowning some champions! Please make plans to attend the next three rounds of the Winter Series. Motosport.com has been very generous in their sponsorship of our club; please consider them for your next Moto related purchase. We will be giving a $50 Motosport Gift card at each of the next three rounds, so come out and race. Also, rockymountainatv.com continues to support us through the Race Gas program. Each time you race with the OTHG you will receive a free $10 gift card to use on any products that they sell.
As far as the Holeshot E-Magazine goes, this is our very first edition in electronic format. There will be more features and improvements as the year goes on. Until then, I hope that you enjoy the new Holeshot. Until next time, ride safe.
Sincerely
Richard Hurtado
