MotoAmerica: Rainey’s Ride to the Races: Grateful for Your Support
MotoAmerica: This year marked the fifth running of “Rainey’s Ride to the Races” at Laguna Seca, and it was another incredible success.
MotoAmerica: This year marked the fifth running of “Rainey’s Ride to the Races” at Laguna Seca, and it was another incredible success.
Together we raised $142,000 for the Roadracing World Action Fund, bringing our five-year total to over $650,000. That’s something we can all be proud of.
For me, this one was personal. To pull on my leathers and ride a few laps at Laguna Seca – for the first time in 34 years – was a feeling I wasn’t sure I’d ever experience. Riding on a specially prepared Yamaha XSR900GP alongside nine legends of our sport made it unforgettable. Laguna has always been special to me, and that day was filled with emotions I’ll carry forever.
I’m deeply thankful to everyone who came to Laguna Seca for the MotoAmerica races and supported Rainey’s Ride. What started five years ago has grown into something far bigger than I imagined. The ride now has a life of its own, and that’s because of the people who support it year after year.
A huge thanks to the legends who joined in – Kenny Roberts, Eddie Lawson, Bubba Shobert, Freddie Spencer, Kenny Roberts Jr., Rick Johnson, Doug Chandler, Ben Spies, Bud Aksland, Kel Carruthers, and Erv Kanemoto. Their time and commitment help make this event what it is.
At the heart of it all, the goal remains the same: raising money for the Roadracing World Action Fund charity to purchase Airfence and Alpina soft barriers to protect our riders. No one can put a price on safety, and I’m grateful to everyone who’s donated through the ride and in so many other ways.
I also want to thank the California Highway Patrol for keeping us safe on the road, Gordon McCall for leading the ride, Baja Cantina for hosting the start of the ride, WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, and the entire MotoAmerica team for their support in making this possible.
See you all next year.
– Wayne Rainey
