New title sponsor for the 2009 NMA Poker Run series
BREAKING NEWS, WASHINGTON STATE!
LYNNWOOD MOTOPLEX & KTM SPORT MOTORCYCLES WILL BE TITLE SPONSOR FOR THE 2009 NMA POKER RUN SERIES!
Hats (or helmets?) off to Mr. Jim Powers Jr., owner of Lynnwood Motoplex, and also to KTM Sport Motorcycles, for stepping up and taking over as title sponsor for this years series.
Thanks to some negotiations by Howard Ferguson, our local NMA series coordinator, Lynnwood Motoplex has teamed with KTM Sport Motorcycles and has agreed to provide a 2008 KTM 250 SXF to be the grand prize at the close of the 2009 season.
This is way beyond our hopes for a motorcycle this year and with only 2 events into the season, it is still wide open for anyone to win this terrific ride.
That moment will come at the final event of the year and awards, which will be The River City, ("halloween"), Poker Run at Tahuya, (Belfair), October 18th.
Ride as many of these events as you can, get your friends to join the NMA, (about the cost of a set of googles!), and get them to ride these events, and most important, get up and be a customer to our new sponsor! Support the people who support our sport! When you are there, look Jim up, shake His hand, and tell Him thanks.
He did'nt do this because He had too many KTM's in stock. He did it to show He cares about our sport and to get you in the store.
Lynnwood runs a full service store with about 35 employees and sells KTM, Yamaha, Can-Am, Polaris, Ski-Doo and Victory.
They have a great sales, service and parts dept and are now open on Sundays from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
They are located at 17900 Hwy. 99 in Lynnwood, Washington 98037.
Telephone # is (425) 774-0505.
E-Mai: sales@motoplex.net
And here is a bonus for you KTM riders. Fred Taft has come on board at Lynnwood as the resident knower of all things orange.
Fred has spent almost 30 years in this industry, has owned His own KTM dealership, and has just plain been around.
Fred just passed you on a trail while you were reading this and not paying attention.
Thank you Jim Powers, Thank you Lynnwood Motoplex, Thank You KTM. Orange is good!

NOVA funds misappropriation
The state is at it again. This time they want to rip off the ORV community by taking funds that we are entitled to and
have paid for out of our own pockets.
Follow the threads on our forums where you can get the latest information on how to fight this.

We have also created a flyer that you can download and print, and share with your riding friends, take to your local M/C shop, mail to your reps etc.

New DNR recreation rules approved
After nearly five years of mostly collaberative efforts between the NMA, WOHVA and the Washington State Department of Natural Resources the new laws concerning reacreational activities on DNR managed lands has been approved by the Washington State Board of Natural Resources. Although not perfect, they are a vast improvement over what the DNR originally proposed.
