DURTY DABBERS TRIALS SERIES

For 2013 the Durty Dabber Club will be having an inner club trials series. This will be a 5 event series that everybody is welcome to ride however only Durty Dabber members will receive points for the end of the year awards.

Each event will have the following classes, Beginner/youth, Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert and Champ. There will be no entry fee or AMA needed to ride this event.
Each event may have small awards for the day depending on the promoter but there will be an end of the year award for each class, 1st, 2nd and 3rd at a minimum, depending on the size of the class. An end of year award will be presented at the Durty Dabbers Christmas Party/Awards banquet held in January.

Points chairman and rules enforcer will be Jennifer Mantzoros.
The first event will be April 28th at Lewie Bolopue’s house. Our goal is to have one event every month in the summer. Future dates and locations will be determined and announced on our website. None of the events will conflict with any of the scheduled National or D-6 events.

DUAL SPORT UPDATE/PROGRESS FOR APRIL

DUAL SPORT UPDATE/PROGRESS FOR APRIL

Several weeks ago we met with DCNR for a major meeting to discuss areas of improvement from our event last year and suggestions of areas we can improve for our event this year. DCNR had several areas of concern, some of which involved motorcycles that were not licensed and were not officially registered to ride our event (tag along riders) and high speed riding on some of the forestry roads. A better system to communicate and identify our safety and support vehicles was suggested and we have made some improvements in the area. We are open to suggestions of the above issues and ask for you to e-mail us if you can offer any input.
There were some issues with the trails we used last year due to the large amount of rain we got the night before the event so this year we will be reviewing some different alternates to help alleviate that problem.

Our next meeting with DCNR will be at the end of April and at that time we will confirm our routing details. This year we are going to try to get a little bit more creative with the adventure bike course and try to come up with easier single track due to the increasing popularity of this class.
The Castanea and Chapman Township Fire Companies and Laurel Run Church are onboard and ready to provide the good food and camping again this year.
As always recommended, the more people that can pre-enter is very much appreciated as it helps us with the planning process, especially for the meals.
Stay tuned for an update in May.
