Thank you for supporting AVTA - Celebrating 50 years! 1973-2023! This year has been a great one for Kansas trials- thanks to all who joined us as well as the club members who worked hard to make each event such great fun!
Big thanks to Augusta's Twisted OZ Motorcycle Museum for hosting our annual January awards banquet. The museum is free and open to the public - a recommended stop anytime! Be sure to look for the AVTA display!

Hats off to our section builders! The idea here is to SHARE in the section building process by
volunteering to build 2 sections a year. See Jeff Kuhn or Rick Rexroat for more
information. Our heartfelt thanks to the Wednesday crew of
Mack Burnett, Bob Saathoff, Steve Williams, Kent Irick, Tiffany and Wes Bucher, Jeff Kuhn, Dean Metsker, and
many many others. Thank you!!! Wednesdays,
Saturdays, and Sundays
at the Douglass quarry are good days to find club members on site and building sections. Everyone is encouraged to participate in section building. Bring
weed eaters and clippers for section grooming.
Club officer elections - 2024-2025 officers are:
President - Jeff Kuhn,
Vice President - Tiffany Bucher, Treasurer - Ed Norfleet, and Secretary - Greg
Gann. Terms are one year each. If you would like to serve the club
and help support our club efforts just ask how! We appreciate the help!
Ark Valley Trials Association club trials are traditionally held on the 2nd
Sunday of each month unless otherwise noted. Event locations subject to
change. Saturday vintage fun trials will return in the Fall (check the club flyer for details if held), Sundays are the regular club trial
with points given towards the annual Kansas State Championship total. Points totals so far are found in the menu on your left.
Please take time to review our club rules, revised September 2023 which are aligned with the NATC
scoring rules. We do not follow all of the rules beyond scoring.
