2012 Congratulations RULE BOOK Zach Ingram

From Your Champion

The 2011 season was a great one for me. I have ridden the Black Jack enduro’s on and off for many years, and in 2011 I was determined to get the overall trophy. The overall championship here really means a lot, as this is the series I grew up racing. Racing has been a great journey so far, and I cannot wait to see where it takes me! Special thanks to the whole Black Jack Series, and huge thanks to everyone who supports me in so many ways.
