Ogden, IA (7/25/2012) - After just
14 weeks since suffering a broken tibia and fibula
in his right leg, Cam Reimers is back aboard his
Can-Am and winning races. The Iowa rider swept all
4 overalls at the 3rd and 4th rounds of the Fun
Valley Moto X Series in Montezuma, IA.
Prior to Fun Vally Moto X round 3 and 4, Reimers
has been playing the role of team manager as he
watched replacement rider Zach Harris pilot the
DS450 to several dominating rides in the District
22 Motocross Series.The Illinois rider managed
to tally 11 overall wins within a few short months.

Harris had this to say about his time as a fill-in
rider: “I had a great time working with
the CR21/Can-Am team; the program they have is
very professional and they wanted to win just
as much as I did. They have the Can-Am’s
working so well and I felt very comfortable on
them. It was a great experience and hope to have
another opportunity in the future.”
Although the team was successful with the Harris,
Reimers was anxious to get back as soon as possible.
The initial expected return date for Reimers was
to be later this fall, but after just 12 short
weeks, he was released. As soon as he got the
release, the Iowa rider was back on the training
grind. “It’s good to be back on the
bike after such a long break, but it’s very
tough to get back in the groove because a day
of riding is pretty painful and requires 2-3 day
rest. This is the time of year that all of the
other riders seem to have a lot of speed and good
fitness. I am just ready to be able to put in
consistent motos everyday so I can get back to
their level,” said Reimers.

Even though they were considered to be behind the
8 ball, the CR21/Can-Am team still decided to compete
in the District 22 Motocross Series this past weekend
at rounds 3 and 4 at Fun Valley Moto X. Feeling
mentally ready, Reimers felt that it was imperative
to find out how he felt physically at a race pace.
He quickly found out as he grabbed 6 out of the
8 holeshots aboard his Hicklin Powersports DS450
and claimed all 4 overall wins in the premier
classes, Quad A Open and Quad A Production throughout
the weekend. “I am very excited about the
weekend we had,” said Reimers.

“Thanks to Wiseco for hooking us up with
a new piston setup, we ripped some really good
starts and had a lot of improvement from Saturday
to Sunday with my speed. That being said, we are
still not quite where we need to be, but are determined
to do what is needed to get back to 100 percent.”
“I definitely have to give a shout out
to all of the great sponsors that make it possible:

behind me; it feels good to be back!”
