MX Race Director

[Blazing MX]

I’d like to take a moment to thank Ron Sipe for his unwavering support, and relentless efforts, to help Waco Eagles Motorcycle Club. About 2008, Ron volunteered to serve as motocross race director for the club and has made the drive down I-35 from Fort Worth to serve. There were times it seemed that the only reason he was there was to get bitc**ed at and chewed on. One thing was always certain, whatever the situation, Ron could handle it. Seldom does a person have the character, along with the demeanor to handle every situation thrown at him, as does Ron.

I’m sure most of you are aware Ron has been battling some health issues which have kept him away from the track. It saddened me when I receive the following note from Ron.

“Due to my inability to be “involved” the way I would like to, it may be for the best that I am removed as the Race Director”.

I replied “Will do Mr. Ron but that don't excuse you from being part of the family”. “Thanks for all your support and continued friendship over the years”. “Yall still show up and enjoy the place”.

Tim Waid has volunteered to assume Race Director duties for the club effective Feb 2012. Please welcome Tim and be sure to let him know he’s got some pretty big shoes to fill.

Thanks Ron for all that you have done over the years. Many thanks for getting our family into racing. When we first started coming out in Aug of 2008, our intentions were just having a place to ride. We didn't have but 1 helmet to start with. Thanks for giving us some of ya'lls old gear back then. You talked me into racing that following month in Sept. and the rest of our family following shortly after. We have been hooked ever since! Many thanks supporting the Women's class also! You & your family will always be in our hearts! Ya'll take care!!!
