Dartmouth, NS - The Mopar CSBK Canadian Superbike Championship is heading to Atlantic Canada for Round 5 of the national series.
Presented by Pro Cycle and Honda Canada, the fifth CSBK round of the 2015 season will be held at Atlantic Motorsport Park near Shubenacadie, NS July 31 to August 2.
Known for exciting and memorable races, the 2.56 KM (1.6 mile) 11-turn circuit will not disappoint fans with races from all categories in the CSBK Championship, including Bell Helmets Amateur Sport Bike, Magneti Marelli Amateur Superbike, Hindle Exhaust Pro Sport Bike, and of course the feature Mopar Pro Superbike class.
Honda Canada sponsored rider, and defending Superbike champion, Jodi Christie claimed his first career Superbike victory at AMP two years ago, and followed that up with another Shubenacadie win last year after a great battle with nine-time National champ Jordan Szoke.
Szoke currently leads the CSBK championship following a pair of Superbike wins at Edmonton’s Castrol Raceway last weekend.
A local favourite to watch is Pro Cycle sponsored and Honda mounted Jacob Shaw-O’Leary. 16-year-old Shaw-O’Leary will be aiming for the top of the podium in the Amateur Sport Bike and Amateur Superbike classes.
On top of the four National CSBK divisions competing on the weekend, the local racing club will also be showcasing some of their talent. The Society of Atlantic Roadracing League will offer two support classes lending to a full schedule of on track activity.
Also part of the Round 5 celebrations will be Pro Cycle’s annual “Fast Bikes” show-n-shine. Held at their Windmill Road location on the evening of Thursday, July 30, the event has become a tradition at the Atlantic CSBK round, giving race fans a chance to check out some great looking motorcycles and meet some of their favourite Superbike riders at the same time.
Specially priced advance tickets for CSBK Round 5 are available in-store at Pro Cycle and online at www.procycleonline.com.
Pro Cycle has been serving Halifax and surrounding area motorcycle and ATV riders since 1983, and is a proud supporter of the Mopar CSBK Championship series.
