NOTE: Two videos of Greg’s Crash below his comments. Wow, all I can say is this one slipped through my hands. Race day was about as intense as I have seen in the 15 times I have raced the Peak. What should have been about a 1pm start turned into a late in the day

Here is a video of Mark Cernicky riding a pretty sweet Triumph! Really enjoyed having him come race the Peak this year! He knows how to get it done for sure! GT Peter Egan provides historical perspective on the Jack Pine custom Triumph in the August issue, on newstands July 5. Here’s a little kick
