Will You Be Attending the 2021 Awards Banquet at the Alan Shirley Pavillion on February 19?
In addition to the championship awards, there are two awards that are voted on by the membership; most improved rider, and event of the year. Be sure to vote by February 11.
Membership registration for 2022 is now open on the membership tab or at the link below. While you’re renewing or joining for the first time this would be a good time to check your AMA membership status.
Our first full work weekend for the TTC national will be this coming weekend (Jan 15-16). After the toy trial in December, we got a good start on identifying section locations, but will continue that effort this weekend and start clearing sections.
We have enough chainsaws so won’t need any more but bring loppers and/or battery powered branch trimmers if you have them.
Wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I hope everyone is able to spend time with family and friends over the next couple of weeks. If you’re able to get a little riding in too, all the better!
I have incorporated rule changes approved by the membership at the business meeting and posted to rules for 2022 to the Riding Rules section of the website.
After the toy trial at TTC we spent some time the following day to scout some section locations for the national. We’ve identified some good section areas that haven’t been used in a while (if ever). We will have a work weekend on January 15-16 (and 17 if that is a holiday for you) to start the work of clearing out sections. A couple of us will be bringing chainsaws and limb loppers. Come on out and pitch in!
The 2021 season championship results are in and have been added to the results page, or take a look at them at the link below.

At least four sets of eyes have reviewed them so we believe everything is correct. However it is remotely conceivable there might be some discrepancies between what you think happened, what actually happened and what we recorded happening. This was not out of malice towards you, most likely a simple mistake, so please approach us with an appropriate attitude and we will do our best to uncover what actually happened.
