*** Staats Challenge Northwest National Race Report ***

Pasco, Washington -- 03/15/2007
Big was not necessarily better this past week-end in Pasco, Washington.

With a small skeleton team of 4 riders Staats Challenge pulled down 2
second place factory team finishes and held our own amongst the "Big
Boys".

Both days started out with a win in 31 to 35 cruiser by our newest member
Melvin Shadrick. What a smile on this guy's face as he pulled to the finish
line in front of all comers!!!

Next was a win by Heather Allred in 21 to 25 girl’s cruiser.
She was the one to beat both days but it couldn't be done.

Then came little dynamo Dustin Hammond in 8X spinning his way to 2
days worth of wins in class and open. He was also smiling ear to ear
with his double double.

So all that was left was for our 10x rider, Alden Volle', to do his thing and
give Staats Challenge a perfect team sheet to turn in. And do it he did!
Alden dominated all week-end and came home with wins in open, class
and cruiser, giving him a triple, triple and a Top Gun jacket as well!!

So all totaled our little team of 4 took home 14 wins all week-end!
Staats Challenge is so proud of our riders and wants to thank our
generous sponsors, our competition and the ABA for a great week
-end in the Great northwest!

See you all in Phoenix with our team roster full and
our fabulous trailer all decked out with new designs!

Thanks to our Sponsors, Staats, DC, Ciari, Ogio, FSA, Tangent,
Troy Lee, Electric, Maxxis, Answer, LDC, Hot Shoppe, Finish Line.
