The Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame will stage their 17th annual induction event at the Aria Convention Centre in Surrey, BC on Saturday, February 15.
Among the outstanding Canadians who will join the Hall in mid-February is road racer Steve Dick, who was a front runner during the very early days of Superbike racing in Canada, as well as the sports bike hay days of the late 1980's.
To celebrate Dick’s career achievements, CSBK will provide a selection of images of Dick’s competition highlights each day this week leading up to Dick’s big day, February 15. Tickets to the revised format event, that features interviews with various racing celebrities, are still available via This email address is being protected from spambots.
