Please note.... " In addition to the AHRMA classes, a support class will be available for twin-shock and modern support riders.

Right. We should be so grateful that AHRMA does not EXCLUDE us. We are welcome to be treated as second class citizens. Take your seat in the back of the bus. Glad you guys had a good time.

Take your seat in the back of the bus. Glad you guys had a good time. When it comes to trials, AHRMA has their head so far up their behind, it is sad. Even the folks you consider to be the first class citizens get treated as second class. Show up at an event, and the trials is on Thursday, of Friday, before all the "important stuff" happens. Or hey, we want to make sure all the guys who do the "important stuff" but still like to ride trials have an opportunity, so we will delay the start of the trials, for hours on end, cause we are running behind on finishing all the "important stuff", like motocross, roadracing, etc. It didn't take too many years of my AHRMA membership to figure out that trials was not a real area of interest, for them. Adios from Texas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_nc Posted October 7, 2010 Report Share Posted October 7, 2010 I also don't like the AHRMA rules on Trials and the 2nd Class treatment. BUT!!!!! We will never get it fixed unless we continue to be members of the organization and make our wishes known. 1. Eliminate "no-Stop" 2. Include later model bikes 3. Use Peer scoring - Speed things up, and get rid of scorers who don't have a clue what they are doing. Also waiting on scorers. just my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adios from Texas. I think this may be the first time I have ever seen Darrell have a Rant! You Go Man! To me, the AHRMA have put me off from even getting an old bike(from my era) at all. Sorry, but I do not need or want to be associated with them based upon what I have heard. I was actually hoping they were done after last year. I know that some hardcores are still trying to help, but I wish they would just let it go, and go with ITSA or something, which seems to be more responsive to the riders. Time and energy better spent. No offense Ed. Wonder the turnout of official riders, and others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
