Poirier, Hunter Patenaude earn 2014 class titles
MALONE, N.Y. (Mar. 26, 2014) – Vermont veteran Lincoln Lemieux made a triumphant return to northeastern regional competition last weekend, sweeping the Pro Open finals as East Coast Snocross (ECS) completed its 2014 season finale at the Titus Mountain Family Ski Center.
The series finale was run on Friday night and Saturday, with the year-end awards banquet held following the last race on Saturday. While Lemieux was setting the pace in Pro action, it was Quebec native Danny Poirier (Ingles Performance/Ski-doo) celebrating his fourth championship at day’s end.
Poirier claimed five final round wins during the season and was never far from the podium. At 34, he still has the speed, agility and determination to outgun the competition. After riding a Polaris the past few years, Poirier returned to Ski-doo last winter and hooked up with the powerhouse Ingles squad. The result was a reinvigorated former champion with his eyes set squarely on the top prize.
