Hometown: I grew up in Denton, Texas and graduated from Denton High School...back when there was only one high school.
CMRA Member Since: July of 2013
Favorite Motorcycle: While I race a Yamaha, my favorite motorcycles have always been twins and specifically Ducati's.
Favorite Track: My favorite track is the one I'm racing on! Seriously though, I love Hallett. It's just the right mix of length, elevation change and it's set in a beautiful part of the country. Easily my favorite track.
Family: I am single and the proud parent of a German Shepherd and a Shi Tzu, both rescues.
Comment: I'm thrilled for an opportunity to give back to an organization that I get so much out of. Not only do we have some the best tracks and best variety of tracks to race on, I think we've got the best membership as well. When you look at the other organizations around the country, they are cutting classes and losing members. The CMRA continues to thrive and to grow and I'm proud to part of that. |

Linz Leard
Hometown: I was born and raised in Houston, however League City, Texas has been home for the past decade.
CMRA Member Since: October, 1987. I took new rider's school at Oak Hill Raceway at the last Central Motorcycle Roadracing Club (CRRC) event of 1987. The CRRC later became the CMRA and I have been a continuous member and racer since that time.
Favorite Motorcycle: This is a very hard question to answer as I have many fond (and some not so fond) memories of all the bikes I have owned / raced. I am very partial to two-strokes of any kind, and I love any GP bike that find its way into club racing. The Yamaha TZs and Honda RSs I owned? I admit I have seller’s remorse. In the end, though, if it has a motor and wheels, I like it and I want to race it.
Favorite Track: The legendary and dearly departed Oak Hill Raceway and iconic Texas World Speedway are my favorite CMRA tracks.
Family: Wife Dina, and two awesome daughters, Raynie and Sammi
Comment: In the almost 30 years I have been with the CMRA, I have had the opportunity to meet many awesome people, make many great friends, and race against some now-legendary racers who went on to claim fame at the national and world championship levels. I have also have had the chance give back to the club by serving on the CMRA’s Board of Directors, and work as a CMRA official for more than eight years. For I time I wrote press releases and race reports for the club, and authored and edited the club’s newsletter. One of my greatest joys was getting my wife and kids involved in the CMRA. Each of my family members either have worked corners or worked in other areas for the club at some point. Sammi has sung the national anthem to start race days on several occasions, and Raynie went on to become a CMRA official for more than four years where she served as a manual scorer, worked pre-registration and the merchandise booth, and also worked the track gates. Along the way Raynie developed a true passion for roadracing and decided she wanted to race. She earned her CMRA race license, which resulted in some of the proudest “Dad Moments” of my life – the times I have gridded up with, and raced alongside of, one of my offspring. |
