This off-season we’re running a series showing your motorcycles. Not just your road racing bikes, but your streetbikes, motocross bikes, dirt bikes, pit bikes, mini bikes, trials bikes, land-speed bikes, drag bikes, speedway bikes, whatever you’ve got. If you have more than one bike, send photos of them all–alone or with you! Send in-focus bike photos (as jpeg files) along with the make, model and year of each bike and your name, city and state, plus the name of the photographer, to [email protected]. By sending us the photos, you are certifying that you own the rights to the photos and are giving us permission to feature them on roadracingworld.com. They may be posted on roadracingworld.com during slow news days.

Seen here in our 16th installment are photos sent in by CMRA racer Michael Capuchino, age 26, of Austin, Texas, featuring his heavily modified 2010 KTM 690 SMC racebike and his stock 2014 Honda Grom streetbike. “Both are a blast to ride,” wrote Capuchino, adding “All the action shots are done by Blair Hart at Hart Photography. The garage shots are by me.”

In the bio section of his roadracingworld.com rider profile, Capuchino wrote, “I’m a big fan of road racing and have been wanting to race motorcycles since I was a little kid. I wasn’t born into racing or born into a family that has a lot of money but 2014 has been a successful year, gaining experience, perfecting techniques, and developing strategies to increase speed and continuously improve track times. For 2015, I will continue with the dream and follow a path to a professional career.” He goes to describes his style as “Ambitious.”

Capuchino lists highlights of his 2014 CMRA season as finishing first overall in the Motard class, third overall in the Formula 3 class and fourth overall in the Superstock D class. During the 2014 season, Capuchino earned 14 podium finishes in 24 races, including nine race wins.
