Mopar CSBK Confirms 2019 Canadian National Motorcycle Road Racing Championship Tour

The Mopar CSBK Canadian national motorcycle road racing series will include five full weekends in 2019, with a schedule familiar to fans and competitors in Canada.

The series will open slightly earlier than in previous seasons, with the first round of 2019 slated for the outer “Pro” circuit layout at Shannonville Motorsport Park on the Victoria Day long weekend in May.  The second-ever round of the Canadian National tour was held at Shannonville’s initial, short “Nelson” layout back in 1980.

In nine of the past 14 years, the winner of the Shannonville Pro Superbike Feature round has gone on to earn the overall National Championship and number one plate.  Seven of those times, the rider doing that double was Jordan Szoke of Lynden, ON, the 13 time overall Canadian National Superbike Champ.
