Sarah Whitmore and Tarah Gieger announce new team for 2006
#4 to make a special appearance at the Long Beach round of the BooKoo Arenacross, wearing MSR gear
That’s right, Sarah Whitmore will be at the Long Beach round of the
BooKoo Arenacross on December 9 – 11. In fact, Sarah and Tarah
Gieger will both be there. They will be there to support their
new teammates, Turbo Reif and Logan Darien, of the Richardson’s RV
team, who will be racing in the event. Tarah and Sarah will be on
hand to hand out shirts and sign autographs, as well as meet with
sponsors. Sarah is actually considering racing in the women’s
class on Sunday. Tarah, however, will be spectating, allowing her
neck to get stronger and focusing on the upcoming Women’s Motocross
Association (WMA) series.
Sarah and Tarah will be riding for the Richardson’s RV team in the
2006. When asked how the Richardson’s RV thing came about, Sarah
said, “Richardson’s was a team sponsor early in last year’s season, and
really stepped up to help Tarah and I finish out the season
right. The people at Richardson’s have really gone above and
beyond to help us out. The team is really first-class, not only
how the team is run, but how everyone treats everyone, equally. I am
really looking forward to the upcoming year, and getting acquainted
with the team’s sponsors, even though I have to leave a few of my old
sponsors in the process. I really appreciate everyone’s help in
being a big part of me getting to this point.”
This year Sarah and Tarah will be pitting out of the Richardson’s big
rig at each of their events. Both will be chasing the WMA
championship, while Sarah will be defending her 2005 Loretta Lynn’s
Championship.
“The Richardson’s RV team is great. They have flown us out for
special events, like their grand opening. They recently opened a
brand new building at their Sun City location. It is huge.
Not only are we pitting out of the rig with the guys, but we are
treated great, and have made a lot of friends. The team is more
like a family. The folks at Richardson’s have been wonderful, and
I am looking forward to racing form them in 2006”, said Tarah.
Both Tarah and Sarah would like to thank their sponsors, who include:
Yamaha, Alpinestars, MSR, O’GIO, Kicker, FMF, FASST, M2R, Shoei, Enzo
suspension, Independent suspension, Pro Wheel, Cti knee braces, Galfer

Both Sarah and Tarah will also be out at each of the amp’d mobile AMA
Supercross events of Anaheim 1,2,3, and San Diego, in support of the
team and its sponsors. Richardson’s RV riders, Turbo Reif and Logan
Darien will be competing in the upcoming 125 (Lites) West class
of the Amp’d mobile AMA Supercross series. They are both using
the BooKoo Arenacross to train for the quickly approaching Anaheim 1

the BooKoo series.
