San Francisco, CA – GEICO Powersports Honda rider Trey Canard rode to victory in the fourth round of the 2010 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series at AT&T Park in San Francisco, CA.

Coming off the heels of a strong third place performance at round three in Anaheim just a week earlier, Canard was eager to get back on the track in San Francisco and had his sights set on the win. Canard won the second qualifying heat of the night, placing him in good position for the main event. While he did not capture the Spike Holeshot award, Canard was leading the field by the end of the first lap. He continued to lead for the entire fifteen lap main event to take first place.

The field in the West Lites class is proving to be a competitive one, and Canard showed that he is a true contender for the title. “I am just very thankful” said Canard, “I’m so excited for the team and everyone involved, it was a great night!”

Trey Canard will head to San Diego on February 6th for the fifth round of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross Series standing in second place in overall points, 16 points behind the series points leader.

Well here we are getting ready for another MUDDER this weekend in San Francisco!!! Man I tell you what after last week at A 2 the Dirt Worx crew have there work cut out for them. I mean that was one of the best tracks I have ever seen especially I cannot believe how much rain we had WOW!!! All the riders seemed PUMPED with the track and it really made for some of the best racing I have seen in years. AWESOME job guys!!!

Anyways I wanted to throw a shout out to the boys Derek & Andy over at BONDURANT Karting school for making us Zero to Heroes on shifter karts. Let me tell you guys and ghouls if you have never done it before DO IT!!! I swear it was one of the Craziest, funniest things I have ever done. Myself and My bro Scotty A.K.A. (Funitureman) we went before SuperCross Round #2 in AZ. a couple of weeks ago and man what a RUSH!!! Derek & Andy start you out with learning basic of the Kart works. Then how to get it, Shift it, turn and really Control these 6 speed 125 2-Stroke Rocketship of a Go-kart again these things are no joke. So you get 1 hr. class time , and 2 hrs driving time. I was SMOKED for 3 days after because you are going so fast from 1 inch from the ground on the Kart using muscle’s you did not even know that were there. But still it was one of the biggest rushes I have ever had hitting the straight away at 90 MPH..........WOW I am ready for more! Scotty boy when we doing it again?

So needless to say try it trust me if you are a moto head you will adjust really quick like me and Scott. But remember listen to what the dudes are saying don’t try to be Jimmy Johnson or something let it come to you.

GEICO Powersports Honda team back on the podium in Phoenix

PHOENIX (Jan. 16) -- The second race of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season yielded a second straight podium finish for the GEICO Powersports Honda race team. This time it was AMA West 250 Lites rider Blake Wharton taking third place in Saturday's main event, boosting his rankings in the early points to third place overall.

"I felt really good," said Wharton, who led 12 of the 15 laps in the main event before falling to third place late in the race. "This was my first time leading laps in the West and the more laps you lead the better you get at it. I just fell off a little bit in the last few laps, just the smallest amount, but it was enough to let a few guys past me.

"I guess I lost a little focus so that's something I'll work on for the next race. I'm positive the next time I'm in the lead I'll do better."

Teammates Kevin Windham and Trey Canard also recorded respectable finishes on their GEICO Powersports Hondas, with Windham taking sixth in Supercross and Canard seventh in the AMA West 250 Lites class.

Canard's effort was exceptionally heroic as he suffered a severe foot injury in the time trial when another rider drove over his left foot as he planted it in a turn. After X-rays at the onsite medical center determined nothing was broken, Canard made it back to the Last Chance Qualifier where he made the field for the main event with a superb ride.

"I needed to be perfect (in the LCQ) or my championship hopes would have been hurt pretty bad," said Canard, who is now fourth in the series points standings. "It's way too early in the year to be worrying about that but it's reality. We ended up in the points tonight so we'll take it. I know it could have been a much worse night. I'm glad nothing was broken in my foot. I'll take all the necessary steps to heal up so I can be ready for Anaheim next weekend."

Windham battled traffic for most of the early part of the race and dropped as low as 11th at one point but the veteran rider picked his way back through the crowd during the second half of the race and closed the evening in sixth place. Overall, he's now fourth in the standings after two of 17 races.

"We salvaged a decent ride but I was just way too slow in the first 10 laps," he said. "The was so much chaos out there early on, guys hitting each other and landing on each other, it put up some road blocks for sure. But I was too timid. I should have gotten to the front sooner.

"I rode the second half great. The second half is always harder but things just worked for me tonight. I just needed a better start and I would have had a much better finish."

The tour returns to Angels Stadium in Anaheim, Calif., next weekend.


Be there be square!!!!
