The Vallee Report

Truth be told, I have some amazing memories from every track I have ever been to. Whether it was because of some incredible racing action, hanging with some great people or something funny that happened at the track, every race weekend I think of brings a smile to my face. While I have fond memories...

For the first time since 2016, the AFT series once again held their season opening double-header at the short track in Daytona. While short on length, the small bullring proved to be long on action as the best in flat track bounced off bumps, walls, and each other, as they put on a tremendous show...

It’s a long way from Chippawa Ontario to Sacramento California, but for the second year in a row, eighteen-year-old Hunter Bauer plans on making the trip. Taking part in the extremely competitive American Flat Track series (AFT), Bauer will once again be doing battle in the Parts Unlimited AFT Singles presented by Kicker class aboard...

Motorcycles have a way of becoming part of the family and sometimes you will see even three generations sharing a two wheeled passion. I have mentioned before that I had little to no support in my two wheeled adventures and as my father had no motorcycling background, I guess that would make me the OG...

If perseverance and hours spent on the road were the only secrets to winning a championship, then Dave Pouliot would most definitely have a few number one plates on his mantle by now. Based in Quebec City and racing in a series that has the majority of its races based in southwestern Ontario, the Pouliot...

So apparently a Mac and Cheese Fest is a thing. Throw in thousands of butter tarts, some food trucks, as well as some random vendors, and suddenly you have a destination for a motorcycle ride. Paris Fairgrounds played host to this mishmash of culinary delights recently and I must admit the boss made a good...

The weather is starting to change and soon it will be that dreaded time where my bike must go into hibernation. Just a couple of weeks ago we had a pretty good stretch of days where getting out for a ride seemed pretty easy. This past week or so has seen a change and for...

With one round remaining in the 2022 Flat Track Canada season, this year has been one of the most tightly contested in the Open Expert ranks. While the battle at the top of the points standings has turned into a tight two-way battle between Dave Pouliot and Tyler Seguin, the fight for third has been...

Years ago, motorcycle gatherings were a little less informal. A few friends would meet in a parking lot and shoot the breeze as well as take some time to admire each other’s bikes. They would then set up another meeting and perhaps at the next one they may see a few newcomers join the group....

With the CSBK series recently visiting Atlantic Motorsport Park for the first time in a few years, it got me thinking about that time a few decades ago when I made a trip there myself. After hearing about the famous “Roller Coaster”, in my second year of road racing the decision was made to head...

So tickets have just been purchased for the AFT race in Port Royal Pennsylvania that is coming up this weekend. For those keeping track this will be our third race in three weekends and fourth race in the last five. Those races have taken place in two different provinces as well as two different states....

I’m not sure if it is an age thing or not but time really seems to be flying by. Here we are just a week into summer but given the fact that the last month flew by in a blur, I’m a little worried that fall will be here before I know it. It seems...
