2019 DC Vet Homecoming to Take Place September 21-22
Come out to High Point Raceway in Mount Morris, Pennsylvania, on September 21-22 and join our extended racing family on this special weekend as we celebrate our motocross heritage and the memory of “Big Dave” with all of our friends—old and new. This event offers two days of unique racing and a wide selection of vet classes for all skill levels, as well as support classes for our younger racers. Spend Saturday night bench racing over adult beverages, BBQ, and vintage mx movies. This is a laid-back event that is sure to bring back cool memories.
Saturday, September 21
Saturday features GP Moto-X Country Racing. The GP-style Moto-X Country racing is a hybrid event combining elements of off-road racing and motocross into one unique competition. Taking place over a roughly three-mile course, racers will encounter woods sections intermittently separated by big European-style grass track areas. There are classes for all ages and skill levels, and you don’t even have to be a “Vet” rider to participate! All classes will race two 30-minute motos on this hybrid course with a unique teaser, as sections of the track will also be used for the upcoming Mason-Dixon GNCC to be held September 28-29th.
The fun continues Saturday evening with Pit Bike racing kicking off at 6 p.m. and a full evening of BBQ dinner, vintage racing movies, karaoke with Racer X John and of course, some great bench racing with old buddies. Even if you’re not here to race, Saturday evening promises to be full of fun and serves as a great time to catch up with old friends.
Sunday, September 22
On Sunday, the focus will shift to the motocross track as the 29th Annual DC Vet Homecoming will take to the famous High Point Raceway. Racers will be able to compete in numerous vet-aged classes, vintage classes, and some support classes for younger riders as well. The afternoon will feature a vintage bike show, numerous vintage contests with the opportunity to win some great prizes, and a swap meet, so clean out your garage, shine up those vintage items and get ready to show-off your stuff at the Country Club of Motocross.
It has now been 21 years since we lost Big Dave in 1998. This presents us with the opportunity to make this year’s DC Vet Homecoming the best yet. This event is a fun, laid back and enjoyable weekend with friends. This is exactly the kind of event that Big Dave enjoyed, so join us September 21-22 as we honor Big Dave by doing the thing he enjoyed the most—racing with his friends.

2018 AMA National Dual Sport Series
2018 AMA National Dual Sport Series dates announced
The American Motorcyclist Association's 2018 schedule for the Beta AMA National Dual Sport Series, presented by Kenda Tires, includes 16 multi-day rides organised by AMA-chartered clubs and promoters.
The routes feature some of the best riding opportunities throughout the United States on private and public land.
One lucky participant in the series will win a new motorcycle from title sponsor Beta USA. Beta's lineup can be seen at www.betausa.com. Additional participant prizes or AMA member deals and discounts will be offered by series sponsors Kenda Tires, ADV Moto and Seat Concepts.
AMA Recreational Riding Manager Heather Wilson said the terrain for these events may vary widely.
In the East or Midwest, the courses often involve woods riding, with gravel or dirt roads connecting riders to multiple woods sections.
In the West, a course is often a mix of sand and dirt, marked by significant elevation changes and wide expanses of open country.
“This segment of riding has captured the interest of both racers and recreational riders,” Wilson said.
“It's common to see a group of riders planning a camping and riding trip on social media months in advance and then sharing their stories after the event. The camaraderie in dual-sport motorcycling is exciting to see.”
The AMA National Dual Sport Series, which dates to 1987, is once again backed by Beta USA, who will be donating a Beta motorcycle to be raffled to a series participant at the end of 2018.
“All of us at Beta are very happy to continue for three more years with the AMA and the national dual sport series," said Beta USA President Tim Pilg.
“We have enjoyed handing out goodie bags at the events, and many of our dealers look forward to attending upcoming events with a Beta display.”
Pilg said Beta's RR-S dual sport models represent a quickly growing category in the United States.
“It makes perfect sense to continue to grow with the series,” Pilg said. “Not to mention, giving a new Beta motorcycle away to one lucky winner each year!”
