The moment I saw this image as I sifted through 1,640+ photos of Jon in just the last 4 years alone, I started sobbing all over again. I knew everyone would want it. Our OXNE angels.

The images I went through played back in my head all night, even the bad ones, the small wrecks where you popped your shoulder out and then literally got on the bike to finish the race at 101. The world’s slowest crash at Central in the start and you spent the whole moto smashing up on your handle bar to get the front brake lever where you needed it. The vivid dream I had last night of getting one of your favorite jersey’s and hanging it on my wall in your memory - what I would do for that to come true.

But those last moments of you from the track this weekend, the bad one I can’t shake from my head. Every time I close my eyes, it’s what I see. I am hoping in time this picture attached is the one that plays back in my head. You battling bumper to bumper with every person in the playing field. Making passes. Racing to the checkers. Life is not fair.

Tomorrow will not be easy. I also realized I played “favorites” with you behind the lens. You were my favorite pro. You were one of my favorite people on the track as you are to so many others of our atvmx community. I pray I find the strength one day to continue one ride at a time, in yours and Blake’s memories. Our QXNE Angels.

Please feel free to use, save and share this photo anywhere of them 💙❤️🏁

My heart is broken. You’ve always been so kind to me Jon. And all I can think about is one of the last couple holeshots you had and said “old man’s still got it”. I enjoyed every aspect of you at the races.

But being right there when you went down. Seeing you like that, it’s something I wish I never had to see. I cant erase that image. And all I can hope is that you are at peace and holding your wife again, celebrating a late birthday with her, and having beers with your brother again.

We love you Jon, this one’s not gunna be easy for any of us. My thoughts and prayers go out to his girlfriend, his family, his loved ones💔😭

Ride in paradise 🏁🪽

Words do not even begin to express how I am feeling this morning. Never mind the fact that there are two grieving parents, a grieving sister, extended family and grandparents, and the entire ATVMX/QXNE families that woke up and are hearing the devastating news this morning.

Blake was a young, talented, driven kid. Came up the ranks in riding and in life. He was going so many places between his future in racing and his career. Chad Lemire and Kristin Nicole have shaped him into a gentleman anyone would be blessed to have in their lives.

From the moment we started capturing Blake behind the lens on the track, racing with his sister Ava in Women’s they became family. Our family just had a huge part ripped from it and I cannot fathom what this loss will mean to all impacted. We are sending love and prayers to the Lemire family and hoping and praying that Mom and Dad will keep him safe as he watches over us as he gained his wings last night. 💔💔💔

June 11, 2026 — High-octane racing meets a deeply personal community tribute this weekend as Capeway Rovers MX hosts Round 4 of the Quadcross New England LLC Championship. The two-day event, running Saturday, June 13, and Sunday, June 14, doubles as the 4th Annual Morandi Family Memorial Race—a weekend of heavy competition, rigid track rules, and a massive community effort raising funds for the Massachusetts Motorcycle Survivors Fund.

The event is held in loving memory of Stephen (1964–2022) and Loretta Morandi. The Morandi family will host a booth all weekend long, featuring a raffle, a benefit bake sale, "Check Twice - Save A Life" signs, memory stickers, and pre-orders for SMP apparel.

Riders and fans can tune their radios to 96.5FM to catch all the track announcements and live racing action. The event kicks off Friday, June 12, with the entrance gate open from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.. There are no Friday sign-ups at the track.

On Saturday, June 13, and Sunday, June 14, gates open early at 6:30 a.m.. Organizers strictly emphasize that attendees must not block the entrance gate. Early morning arrivals are required to park on the right side of the entrance roadway and wait for the gate to reopen.

On-site amenities include an air-conditioned and heated eat-in restaurant serving a breakfast and lunch menu both days, alongside permanent restroom facilities.

A gate fee of $25 per person covers the entire weekend, and children aged 3 and under are admitted free.

All racers must provide proof of medical insurance to ride at Capeway Rovers; participation is completely barred without it. For youth riders, a minor waiver and temporary guardianship policy must be completed for both Capeway and QXNE. Both the parent/guardian and youth rider must be present with their wristbands on at the time of registration.
• Saturday Practice Sign-up: 7 a.m. to 12 p.m.
• Saturday Race Sign-up: 12 p.m. to 3 p.m.
• Sunday Race Sign-up: 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. at the sign-up building.

Saturday practice runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. for a fee of $50, and no QXNE membership is required for the Saturday sessions. Practice sessions run for approximately 10 minutes across six rotating class groups.

At noon on Saturday, a slow Morandi Family Memorial Parade Lap will take place just prior to a special 20-minute, Pro-only practice session. All registered riders are encouraged to participate in the tribute. Race machine tech inspection will be open from noon to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday at the QXNE tent. A mandatory riders' meeting will follow at approximately 3:30 p.m. at the bleachers.

Sunday morning practice begins at 9 a.m. following the same group order as Saturday, with each group receiving two laps. Sunday practice is included in the race entry fee, but a QXNE membership is required for Sunday morning practice and all Sunday racing. Full-season and single-event QXNE memberships will be available at the track and must be purchased before signing up to race.

Racing begins immediately after Sunday practice concludes, at approximately 10 a.m. Entry fees are $50 for standard classes and $100 for the ATV Pro, SXS Pro, and Pro-Am classes.

Local girls and women continue to prove they can dominate the track. Lakeville's Lilly Burch is a top local competitor to watch this weekend. Burch currently holds 1st place in the Women's Class and 4th place in Youth Modified. She is slated to run in the Women's division along with an additional class to be announced.
