VIDEO: Motocross races return to Medicine Hat
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Racers are getting ready to put the pedal to the metal this weekend.
The Canalta Hotels Alberta Motocross Championship runs through the long weekend at the motocross track north of the Medicine Hat Drag Strip.
Mckenzie Lacey is not only helping to put together the event, but is also racing on the weekend. Lacey’s love of motocross started in his teenage years growing up on an acreage outside of the city.
“I started out on just a 100cc trail bike, and I fell in love,” he said. “I got onto a 250 race bike, and I just wanted to race it. I went to tracks and started joining competitions. I had some close friends who also raced competitively, so it helped a lot.”
