What a lid worn by Ben Young at the Circuit of the Americas this past weekend in a support race for the MotoGP event. Aboard a RoadRace Factory prepared Yamaha R6, Ben placed 4th (a double double?) in his MotoAmerica Supersport race. Amid sprinkles (presumably the water kind rather than the multi-coloured candy kind), torrential rain and almost zero visibility Ben rolled up rim and bear clawed his way from a starting grid position of 10th to finish with points. The helmet that is so intriguing is a Bell painted to represent a cup of Tim Hortons coffee. That is about as Canadian as it gets. Way to go Ben! Where can the rest of us get one of those?
