San Bernardino, Calif. – February 4, 2011 – The off-road community lost a great champion and friend when Nathan Woods passed away from injuries sustained in a crash while practicing for the opening round of the WORCS series.

FMF/KTM’s Kurt Caselli and former mechanic Charles Jirsa, both long-time friends of Nathan, have organized a benefit ride day that will take place at Glen Helen Raceway on February 23,2011. Gates open at 9:00AM and an open practice session will take place from 10:00AM to 4:00PM. Admission to the ride day will be $20.00, with all of the proceeds going directly to the Woods family.

In addition to the riding, there will also be a silent auction held until 4:00PM, with all proceeds going to the Woods family. Participants with items they would like to donate to the silent auction are encouraged to bring them to the track.
