A
fter eight years at Fox Race-
way, the 12th annual Kurt
Caselli Ride Day returned to its
birthplace—Glen Helen Raceway
Park—where hundreds of racers,
friends and family of the late
legend enjoyed a full day of fun
for a great cause.
While the final numbers of
funds raised won't be tallied for
a few days, it's safe to say this
year's Ride Day will go down as
another significant contributor
to the Kurt Caselli Foundation's
(KCF) mission of protecting and
supporting the lives of off-road
riders.
With Glen Helen's motocross
tracks and surrounding off-road
trails open to ride, there was
something for practically every
attendee. Those who didn't know
how to ride but wanted to learn
could take two-hour beginner
classes taught by United States
Motorcycle Coaching Associa
-
tion (USMCA)-certified coaches
in a safe, separate area.
Thanks to an anonymous
donor, three scholarships of
$6600 each were awarded for
the spring 2026 semester. The
recipients were Addy Albrecht
of Montana, Piper Carver-Coons
from Nevada, and Arizona resi
-
dent Rhett Russo.
There were several dozen
vendors on hand, a silent auction
and raffle prizes, as well as the
Memorial Legend Lap for Kurt
(which attracted more than 300
riders) and the always popular
