Great weather and fun, challenging sections were had by all at the McMahan’s Ranch in Smithville for the opening rounds of the 2015 Texas State MotoTrials Championship! Thanks!!! to the McMahan’s for hosting everyone at their wonderful trials playground. And Thanks!!! to everyone that pitched in to make this event a success on such short notice!
Here are the results, courtesy of Mitch Ely: Round 1, Round 2
Hope to see y’all at Rounds 3 & 4!
The dates for Rounds 3 & 4 have been moved back 1 week to March 7 – 8. Here’s the updated Texas State series Intro Letter with all of the changes incorporated! Please note that this is the 2nd revision; the first was a venue swap for the first and last rounds.
Yes, it’s that time again. Time to get those old bikes out of hibernation, top off the fluids and change out the plugs. Our inaugural 2014 SWVTA Championship series went out with a bang. We had great ridership over the coarse of the year, and a few of us competed in enough events to qualify for year end trophies, not to mention the really cool jackets for those who won their respective class.
We plan on kicking off the 2015 SWVTA Championship Series with a rider clinic Saturday, February 21st at Huffman Farms outside of Donie, Tx. This will be a loosely organized fun day with advanced riders helping out the beginners with tips on bike set-up, riding and falling. We will gather around 9:30am, with a lunch break around noonish with a club meeting to hammer out dates for the 2015 championship series. No charge for entry fee, feel free to come camp out. It will also be Jay’s birthday! Help him celebrate.
Oh, and see the pdf of the final tally from last years series. Points were awarded as the following: 1st=30, 2nd=25, 3rd=21, 4th=18, 5th=16, 6th=16 7th=15 and so on.
See you the 21st,
Stephen Hetzel
The schedule has been revised, please see the updated TSS Intro Letter. All dates remain the same, but due to a loss of usable land at City Park, Smithville will open the Series and CTTA will close the Series at Salado, TX.
UPDATE: there is another schedule revision, the dates for Rounds 3 & 4 have been postponed 1 week. Here’s the twice updated TTS Intro Letter.

The CTTA hosted the 6th and Final Round of the 2014 “Summer” Series on December 13th with the Annual Toy Drive Trial; a special thanks to Ben Dalgeish for organizing this charity event. About 33 riders enjoyed an event set by TrialsMaster Neil King and you can check out the section-by-section results here, results courtesy of Mitch Ely.
The Summer series enjoyed a great turnout tis year, with more than 80 riders participating in an event! Thanks to everyone that participated. So many people helped make this series a success – to the landowners that graciously hosted an event, to the trialsmasters and organizers of an event, to the volunteers that helped clear or build sections and to those that ran sign up and scoring – THANK YOU! This series wouldn’t happen without your support. The overall series results can be found here.
Thanks to everyone for coming out to the event. We couldn’t have asked for better weather. Two inches of rain earlier in the week helped a lot with the traction.
