The Sooner Cup is right around the corner - we're looking forward to seeing everyone there! Remember, this event is open to ALL club-level competitors.

A couple quick videos from our 3rd Annual Thanksgiving Night Trials. All in attendance seemed to have a good time once again. Its a different perspective on trials to say the least! Nothing like trying to figure out how deep the water is in the creek at each crossing with your headlight. Sometimes a little Faith is in order. Looking forward to next year. Aaron Sorry about the quality, but I was asked to post them anyway.

So all of that snow is gone! If it isn't well thats good too because we have a place for you!!! You should get some inspiration. Get off your couch! Get on your bike! More importantly get out there and compete. For the past five or so years some of the best clubs in the upper mid west have been riding together. MOTA and Trials Inc have been combining one event into both of their series. Its very common to have over 100 riders each of the two days. Now I know that those of you in Europe scoff at that but in America its a bit of a home comming that we all enjoy. This weekend in Ligioneer Indiana will be the first and second MOTA event along with the fourth and fifth Trial…

A video from this weekends trial in AZ.

Well, I thought I'd throw something up regarding the Ute Cup in Colorado last weekend. A wonderful event in the beautiful San Isabel Mountains and the RMTA people did a fantastic job, as usual. 20+ mile loops and 20 sections per loop (2 loops per day) and the weather was very cooperative. The sections were rideable by a good Intermediate (I would have ridden all the sections I saw with no problem) and several riders came in with clean cards. I checked sections with Ed Peacock each day and we saw many smiles on the riders faces who came through. Everybody had a good time and I'm really looking forward to the 2011 Ute Cup at Del Norte next year! The altitude was 8400 at t…

Even though I can't be in Flint the upcoming weekend, I wish the Bent Fenders club good weather (I'm trying to keep the rain on this side of the pond...) and a lot of fun for setting up the event! Oh, and if you need another checker, maybe we can do something like online-checking... webcam and I'll check from Europe just kidding, but I wish all of you an awesome weekend!!

The Central regionals starts this weekend with the 35th annual Quarry Cup at Trenton Mo. I have heard that it is the longest existing 2 day in the U.S. 35 yrs straight without a miss Does anyone know any different? Ive attended in 1978 2005 2006 2007 and now 2008. A real good event and in what i think is a very nice a nice gesture they are giving a $25 per vehicle rebate to all out of towners. It doesnt cover all the extra gas cost but it helps, thanks MATT guys. This event in recent years has aways recieved rain but this year forecast is sunny and 20 percent.
