Doug Eichner. All proceeds from Tshirts

& family with her battle with cancer
& medical bills |
Washington, UT (2/7/2012) - The
term WORCS family are two very important words.
It is that family that makes working and playing
at our events so much fun. Memories are made that
will last a lifetime. One of our family members
needs some support. That member is the Eichner
family. Doug Eichner was probably the single most
influential ATV racer in the western half of the
US and many parts of the world.
His racing adventures have earned his recognition
around the world. Now we need to help the “Champ”.
Over the past few years, Doug’s wife Joan
Eichner has battled cancer. Doug has continued
to work as much as possible while raising their
young son. Joan's battle has been very difficult
and the financial strain has made it even more
difficult for the family. The Primm, NV round
will be a perfect time for all WORCS racers
to come and stand behind one of the greatest
of all time.
A special Doug Eichner shirt will be available
this weekend for
purchase. The cost is $40 and
100% of that will go to the Eichner family.
Donations will also be taken in
a fill the boot campaign
where any support level will be awesome.
One time I asked Doug his secret for riding
in the dust when he
could not see a thing. He
said “You have to pick a number. That
number is the amount of seconds you
would be willing to
ride blind in the dust before you let off.”
I said mine was about 4. Doug
said, “Well mine is 12.” I
almost fell over hearing this but it was evidently
true based off his
performances. Doug then
said, “You just have to pick a number
in life and go for it. Each of ours
will be different at times.
In this case mine happens to be bigger."-
Doug Eichner
That is and was Doug Eichner to a “T”.
I think Joan must have adopted this system for
her cancer fight as an example for her son and
others. I hope the WORCS FAMILY will join in
and support one of the greatest ever to throw
his leg over an ATV.
Make sure to stop by the WORCS sign-ups or
Fundraiser booth to donate this weekend!
