agreed, organization was pretty bad. I'm blaming it on the powersports rally folks though, not trailpass. I was signed up for the poker run...no need to get into the whole story but it ended up with my group asking for refunds and going to ride on other trails for the day. Dissappointing, we had really been looking forward to the event - not to mention we drove 4 hours to get there.

I also went to the show on sunday. I was disapointed at the amount of people that was there. i first went to the displays in Lake George. I asked one of the dealers how many people he thought went through on saturday and he told me if 1000 went through it was a lot. I then went to west mt. to watch the events over there. Not many people there either. It is pretty sad that us atver's can't even get together at something like this to show some support for our cause. The government looks at things like this and says to themselves,"what do we have to worry about they don't have anybody who cares enough to show up at there own functions". Please every body join a club and get with NYSORVA, we have to show the government that we do have numbers and we do mean buisness. As far as TrailPass I watched Leeann work her butt off at the gate on Sunday.

we drove about 2 hrs to the ski mountain there, we expected to just sign in and pay and what not but it was a big ordeal-somebody at the ski place said that the quads were tearing up the mountain too bad and that we couldnt use the trailhead there-if u have hundreds of quads, you have got to expect there to be damage!!-anyway, we loaded back up and drove about 5 miles down the road to another trailhead where there was no trailpass guy or anyone there to let us thru the gate-a real pain in the you know where-the trails, once we got on em werent so bad though-we got the 800 polaris stuck and restuck which was the highlight....

Hello Everyone,
J47Sweet here, from the Northeast Powersports Rally. For those of you who were affected by the trail closing issue or the riding 2up issue, we are genuinely sorry. We were caught off guard by the decision to prevent 2up riding on the Poker Run. The folks who made this decision understandably did it in the name of safety and security. If someone crashed riding 2up illegally, then they would be at risk of a law suit. Since this is our rally, the decision ultimately has to land on our shoulders, and if you made the trip all this way, only to be turned back at the last moment, then please accept our apologies, and the refund you received as a small token or our sincerity - I would have been upset as well.
Regarding the trail closure: As you probably know, getting access to trails in NY is very difficult. For us to make this rally happen, we had to work with a private mountain, and guarantee that their trails would survive an ATV rally. This included many signs on the ski trails asking (pleading) for riders to be careful on the ski trails, while encouraging them to do whatever they (safely) want on the extensive trail system behind the mountain. On Sunday, a group of irresponsible riders decided to ignore the signs, and tear up 2 large sections of ski trail. When the mountain saw what was happening, they immediately closed the trails, so that they could repair what had happened, and redirect traffic past the damage. Their repair lasted about an hour, during which the trails were closed. Again, we apologize very much for the inconvenience, and hope that it didn't ruin your trip to the rally.
We are very open to suggestions. Please feel free to email any ideas/improvements/suggestions to
info@powersportsrally.com
We will do our best to include them in next year's rally.
