Pipetech is thrilled to announce our official sponsorship of world-class chuckwagon driver Jordie Fike for the 2026 World Professional Chuckwagon Association (WPCA) Pro Tour!
If you’ve ever watched a live chuckwagon race, you know it is one of the most exhilarating spectacles in sports. Four thoroughbred horses, a solid wagon, an expert driver, and two outriders coming together to navigate a tight figure-eight before exploding onto the track at highway speeds. There is zero room for error. A fraction of a second or a minor miscalculation can make or break a race.
Meet the Driver: Jordie Fike
Hailing from High River, Alberta, Jordie Fike is a powerhouse on the WPCA circuit. A former Western Hockey League (WHL) defenseman for the Portland Winterhawks, Jordie traded his skates for reins, returning to his roots to become a fourth-generation chuckwagon competitor.
Jordie has been a consistent crowd favorite and a top-tier competitor since breaking into the circuit, notably earning Top Rookie Driver honors in 2010. Over the last year, Jordie and his team have put in massive work – securing incredible track times, adding powerful new blood to his herd of equine athletes, and rocketing up the world standings.
Heading into the 2026 season, Jordie’s wagon is faster, sharper, and hungrier for the winner’s circle than ever before. And this year, he’s running with the Pipetech brand proudly displayed on his wagon box.
