Avalanche Leaves Canterbury With Podiums And Victories



Avalanche’s Junior 10-13 rider James Johnstad (No. 154 Avalanche Racing Team/Polaris) is looking to add a third consecutive win to his tally here. James Johnstad is Andrew Johnstad’s younger brother.

“Winning at Canterbury was just awesome, ” said Johnstad. “I’ve learned so much this season from the team, and the mechanics have given some of the best equipment on the track. ”

The team’s Sport rider David Glefke (No. 147 Avalanche Racing Team/Polaris) remains upbeat after a difficult weekend in Canterbury.

“This is still a learning experience for me, but I’ve picked up a ton of knowledge this season, ” said Glefke. “We always have a strong weekend in Geneva, so I’m really looking forward to racing. ”

Avalanche Racing Team co-owners Mike and Bonnie Glefke will host a group of local 120 CHAMP racers from Winter Thunder Challenge as their guests during this weekend’s race. The Glefkes, along with their world-class team of mechanics and riders, will help introduce the young racers to the world of professional Snocross racing.

The Avalanche Team will conclude the successful WPSA/Avalanche Racing Crew Member for a Day contest here. The team pioneered the effort to create the program, which awards one lucky fan the chance to work side by side with the Avalanche team at each race this season. The winners also receive a free Z1R helmet, as well as the chance to win $1,000 in products if an Avalanche sled makes the podium.
