Wojnarowski ends Schrage streak

From World Enduro Canada

Rounds five and six of the Royal Distributing Canadian Enduro Championship presented by Parts Canada are in the books. The gang from Dirtybikes.ca put together a tough and challenging course - something that deserved to be called a National round. The entire weekend was presented by Honda, and its top rider Jason Schrage did not disappoint.

There were 29 Pro riders with 15 of them coming from Alberta, BC and Quebec, who put on a great show. 

Yamaha/Machine Racing's Brian Wojnarowski was the first rider to put a dent in Schrage's undefeated streak by topping him on Day 1 in the E2 class. But Schrage figured out the terrain and came back on Day 2 to get his fifth win and fifth overall fastest award for the season.

Day 1 also saw Feeding Performance/Husqvarna rider Guy Giroux get his first win for the season in E3 and taking the fastest overall Pro honours for the day. He won E3 again on Day 2 but lost the overall for the weekend to Schrage. 

Suzuki's Chris Van Hove was the man to beat in E1 as he battled all weekend with Jared Thomas from Alberta and Phillipe Chaine out of Quebec - a true National podium. Vet Pro was won by Clint Riviere from Pincher Creek, AB on Day 1 and Jean Pellerin from Quebec taking Day 2 with Ontario's Paul Andratis in the mix to keep them both honest.

The Amateur classes saw Tyler Murray winning A class both days, Jed Franko taking both days in B class and the C class saw Alberta boys Dan Scott and Ty Mckenna swapping first and second both days. KTM/Apex Cycle rider Rob Martin from Plattsville, ON won Vet class both days and Super Vet had Machine Racing's John Nelson and Jean Marie Breault from New Brunswick swapping first and second place over the two days.

Jeff Morgan from Inside MotoX and Offroad also came to ride the event and finished a respectable eighth and sixth in B class.

The final two rounds will be held this weekend in Labelle, QC where Eastern Canadian Enduro Champions will be crowned in all six Amateur classes - sponsored by Inside MotoX and Offroad Magazine - as well as the National Pro Championships in all four Pro Classes.

The overall number one Pro for the season will be handed the keys to his new Kymco scooter couresty of Kymco Canada.

There will be a season ending after-party in Mont-Tremblant on Sunday evening.
