Maybe this has already been discused sometime in the last year, but I am new here. I know there were complications with hosting last year and things barely came through at the last minute, but what is the disposition for this year? Will there be a Motorama 2007 trials event? If so then I'll be there. If not, then that is a sad loss to the world of US biketrials...

It's no Motorama, but it looks like a chill place to ride and have fun.

I'll never forget, going to my first Motorama back in 98' and seeing JJ,Mark Brooks and Shawn Miller.There were a lot of other pros there,but there the only ones I really remember.I'm really looking forward to Rays, they'll be new riders there and a different style of riding there as well.
I was always a fun of fast & furious riding.

Just heard of this yesterday... I was looking forward to going there for the first time... CRAP

Whoa! WTF? No motorama?
I guess after 5-6 years, I kind of assumed it would always exist, like winter, or the Easter bunny, or... wait a minute. Damn!
Looks like we are going to have to form some other kind of event...
There was some talk last year about a Westchester, NY (1 hr North of NYC) event. I would be willing to talk to the parks dept folks if people would be into it. I'm thinking of a cheep contest, with few frills. Perhaps even an informal event.

Well, indoors is part of what made it key. The fact that ALL the pros showed up was the other key.
Hell, the first year that I went (9-10 years ago I believe), the then-world-champ, Ot Pi, flew in from Spain to give a class and ride demo. Motorama was always HUGE.
