Taylor tops honours

By John Hopkins

HAMILTON, ON -- CMA dirt track champion Donald Taylor was named winner of the White Memorial Trophy at the sanctioning body's annual meeting in Halifax Jan. 23.

The 18-year-old Welland, ON racer became the youngest winner of the CMA's number one plate, winning six of eight races in the feature class.

Kelly Graffunder of Clearwater, BC earned the Bert Irwin Memorial Ontario Cup for claiming the best Canadian performance at the ISDE last fall.

The Fulvio Callimaci Memorial Supporters Award, which is presented for outstanding efforts in support of motorcycling, was shared by KTM North America and KTM Canada, the Pike Falls Classic Motorcycle Club in Kemptville, ON and Ward Brown of Yorktown, SK.

The CMA also announced its directors and officers for 2005. Joseph Godsall will serve as president and David Hewgill as vice president. The executive committee will also consist of Paul Imrie and Marilynn Bastedo.

The board of directors will be made up of Marc-Andre Thibeault (Quebec), David Stewart (Ontario), Imrie (Saskatchewan), Hewgill (Alberta) and Godsall (BC). Board positions for Atlantic Canada and Manitoba will be filled at a later date.
