Off The Radar

I had the pleasure of having Zinger and Howey stay at my house for a couple weeks at the beginning of the month.  We rode a bunch, and Zinger was hard at work behind the lens, coming out with this banger!

Banshee at Megavalanche St. Paul, Reunion

18 year old Banshee rider Claudio Dijoux took his Rune to an awesome 12th place in the 2011 Megavalanche St. Paul, Reunion.



After qualifying in a hugely impressive 6th place ahead of riders such as Rene Wildhaber & Cedric Gracia, Claudio was expecting big things for the final. Unfortunately his race run didn't go quite to plan but he still ended up in 12th place, just 2 minutes, 22 seconds off Remy Absalon's winning time.



Full results can be found here & qualifying here.



Check out the Megavalanche site for more info.

Congratulations Claudio from everyone at Banshee!

Ducati1199 Panigale

Earlier this month Ducati announced the launch of their new superbike the Ducati 1199 Panigale, which they have shown this month to the public at the EICMA motorcycle show in  Milan and the Motorcycle Live Show at the Birmingham NEC. Ducati say this bike sets a new benchmark in the motorcycle industry. It is the most high tech, most powerful twin-cylinder production engine on the planet with an astonishing 195hp from 164kg (361.5lb) of futuristic Italian thoroughbred. The highest production motorcycle power-to-weight and torque-to-weight ratios in the world!
All we know is it looks drop dead gorgeous!

Ride safe.

Fogelsode Season 3 #4: AT's Showdown and a Wind Down Sesh

It's been an eventful past couple weeks! AT's Showdown never fails to disappoint and this year was no exception! I always look forward to this contest, not only for the good times that it brings, but because it brings friends from all over to the area, making for some rad days of riding before and after the comp. The contest went perfectly, with few injuries and exciting finals that the "head to head" format brought. I ended up finishing 8th, so I'm stoked on that!
We got a bunch of rain in the days following, so it was back to the good 'ol step-up for some lighthearted sessions--a nice change of pace!
