From Misti Hurst

LIONS BAY, BC -- Misti Hurst has been chosen to race for Honda Canada as part of its Red Rider Race Program.

As a Red Rider, Hurst, with support from LESTER Racing, TURN 2 Sportbike Rentals and Parts Canada, and sponsored in part by The Honda Centre in Burnaby BC, will compete in the International Motorcycle SUPERSHOW Amateur 600 National Series and the Pro Honda Oils Women's Cup Challenge. Both series kick off May 19-21 at Shannonville Motorsport Park.

Hurst will pilot a 2006 Honda CBR600RR with Traxxion Dynamics front suspension, Elka rear shock, Cheetah Racing Bodies, Vortex rearsets, FS6 frame sliders, Hindle exhaust and Full Bore Marketing chains. Her race bike is being prepped and tuned by George Budacki of Turn 2, and she will join Paul Glenn and Ross Millson to become the third member of the Turn 2 Racing Team.

"I'm very excited to be racing a Honda again with the support of Turn 2 and George Budacki," said Hurst. "Participating in the final event of the Women's Cup Challenge last year was so much fun and I'm looking forward to an outstanding full race season this year with a great deal of success."
