Time is running out on the opportunity to bid on an AHRMA vintage-racing-legal 1975 Bultaco Pursang 250 in an auction that will benefit the 9-year-old daughter of motocross legend Jim Pomeroy. Bids will be accepted until Monday, October 16, at 5 p.m. Eastern Time. For complete information, visit www.ahrma.org/auction. Pomeroy, the first American to win a world championship motocross round (the 1973 Spanish 250 GP), was synonymous with the Bultaco marque. In recent years he was an enthusiastic participant in American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association competition, winning the +50 Expert vintage MX national title three times in a row, 2003 through 2005. He died in a Jeep accident on Aug. 6 outside his hometown of Yakima, Wash., and his daughter, Jamie Lee Pomeroy, suffered minor injuries. The race-ready Model 135 Pursang is being donated by AHRMA members Dan and Susan D’Amico of Utah. Proceeds from the auction will go to a trust fund set up for Jamie Lee Pomeroy
