Hi everyone, I have raced motocross almost all my life and am now getting to old to ride. I picked up bike trials about a year and ahalf ago and LOVE it,now Im getting hooked on moto trials and am saving up my play money to find a nice used bike to start out on.
Im also looking for michigan riders that are on the north west side of the state to ride with.
Welcome to the 'Left Coast' !
There's a core of us in the Grand Rapids area , I'm a bit south .( don't start..)
Our club has a great riding area in Vermontville .
Finally got around to gettin' the lil' bugger on the bench . Pretty much all there , should make a good little loop / pit bike . It's in need of a muffler though . Anyone just happen to have one laying around ? I've got a TL front wheel and a set of IRC's to mount . Other than that , it runs like a top .
Just want to mention that we are adding property to the event this year which will make are loop no less than 3 miles long and some interesting terrain and sections.
I have used spray on wheel cleaner ( aluminum specific ) , Maquiers (sp?) or Mothers . Works pretty good . Also used S-100 / Hondabrite for washing the whole bike. Works well . I took the Pontoon boat to a Truck wash where they wash up Semi's / trailers . They sprayed on a "Brightener " and power washed it off . I was amazed . Might be a source . FWIW .
A group of us from the Northern Ohio area of Trials Inc. have volunteered to put on the trials at Vintage Motorcycle Days and the AMA has accepted our offer. As we formulate our plans for this event I will try to keep the Trials Central community informed via this forum.

Great News !
I'll be able to "enjoy" this one !
So....points adding to a championship or just as a single event ?
Just got off the phone with an .....individual that told me that Mid-O was not a AHRMA points paying event for AHRMA . Furthermore , if that , that individual participated , that person would be castaway from his position .
We both agreed that preserving this venue (should things be worked out ) was a priority .
Trials Inc. was mentioned as a willing sponsor for the trials event this years event ( can you say ITSA ? )
Michigan riders are aware of Brockways litigation , that easily could have resulted in lost land use . But this , .... I dunno , could have a far reaching affect on family offroad / sports participation of any sorts . Chrysler , even the Greenies could use this to their benefit .
