Honda Proving Center of California has hosted much of Sport Rider’s testing for over 15 years.
Way back when Sport Rider magazine began in 1993, we had heard rumors of a super-secret facility built by Honda up in the California high desert that the company used for testing its numerous two-, three-, and four-wheeled vehicles. Details were blurry and scarce, like something from Lockheed’s heralded Skunk Works; some said the facility was nothing more than runaway rumors, while others vigorously maintained that it indeed existed. It wasn’t until Honda actually decided to let Sport Rider conduct one of its infamous UFO shootouts for the October ’93 issue at the Honda Proving Center of California that the mystical cat was let out of the bag.
