Valcourt, Canada (10/1/2007)
- Can-Am is back on the podium at the Olympic
Stadium. Greg Gee riding an Epic Racing-prepped
DS 450TM ATV took second in the main event
to put the Can-Am name back on the Supercross
map, thirty years after Jimmy Ellis' win on
a Can-AmTM 250 MX motocross bike at the first
Montreal Supercross.
“This really was an emotional
night for everyone at BRP,” said Bernard
Guy, ATV marketing director, BRP. “Bringing
the Can-Am brand back to this race means so
much to those who worked hard on the DS 450
project; to take second and lead the race
for a bit made the night even more special."
Both Gee and Sage Baker entered
the Supercross, however, a first-turn pileup
prevented Baker from challenging for the podium.
Gee had a great race and rode his DS 450 quad
flawlessly to a second-place finish.
