This is an update on sponsored rider Christopher Furches. This has been an interesting season so far filled with excitement, thrills, happiness, rain, mud and of course disappointment, injury and mechanical issues. Chris has raced in 14 events as of today since February 2013. He has raced in 3 National events attended the 4th but did not race due to an electrical issue. He broke his left foot in March of this year but was able to continue to ride even though he was in a lot of pain. Asking our son to stop racing is like asking him to stop breathing. He has also raced in several local events, is the point’s leader in the Hot Summer Nights SX Series, and has gotten every holeshot in that series. He participated in local events such as the Special Olympics placing 1st in the softball throw and placing 3rd in the 400meter run. He continues to get good grades for his level, is a good ambassador for Autism Awareness, and acolytes at our church.
We greatly appreciate your support and sponsorship. We know it is a privilege and we strive to promote your company every opportunity we get. Below are the events he has raced and the position he placed overall.
Thank you again and have a great day,
Stephanie Furches
