Team Diablo Honda rider Doug DeHaan has moved up to fourth
in the Canadian 250cc Nationals after a solid 5th place ride last
weekend at Regina. “Last weekend wasn’t
good and it wasn’t bad for me. I didn’t
feel I rode well but yet I didn’t feel I rode poorly. Just an uneventful race.
On the bright side I’m currently one point behind Lance Smail for third
place in the 250cc National standings.
Right now my sights are on third as JSR and Blair have been riding
awesome and they are tough to beat right now.”
Doug has been riding a Honda CR450F through the series up to
this point and a change in bikes looks to be on the horizon. Doug said, “A 450 is an advantage in the
start but towards the end of motos I don’t have that extra gear to keep
pushing. I’m currently getting a Honda
CR250 set up for testing which could be my bike of choice for the remaining
nationals.”
You’ll see Doug this week at a race in Quebec and then he
mentioned that he would be attending the July 21st race at Unadilla.
