While Waiting for the Perfect Paint – A Quick Trip to Del Mar in California!

Saturday, October 06 2012 by Editor

By Jan Westmark-Allan A young fan collects autographs from his favorite riders at Del Mar, in California. All photos by Tish Quirk, unless noted Sidelines Magazine’s new mascot, Spirit, a Medicine Hat paint, is coming to live with me today!
