Meeting between the FIM and MSMA (World Manufacturers)
A meeting was held on February 23 in Geneva, within the framework of the FIM Conference
Meetings, on request of MSMA. During this meeting, FIM President Vito Ippolito was assisted
by FIM Vice-.President Jean-Pierre Mougin, International Technical Panel President Oriol Puig
Bulto and Sports Director Ignacio Verneda. MSMA was represented by its President Mr Hiroshi
Oshima, accompanied by KTM President Stefan Pierer, Aprilia/Derbi President Leo Francesco
Mercanti and MSMA Secretary General Takanao Tsubouchi. Youthtsream was represented by
its President Mr Giuseppe Luongo.
MSMA representatives acknowledged the negative impact of noise on the development of
sporting and non-sporting activities and confirmed their will to work closely with the FIM in
order to reduce the sound level of off-road machines, an evolution which matches totally the
strategic orientations of the FIM.
It was decided to create immediately a steering committee composed of FIM, MSMA and
Youthstream representatives and with the task, at first stage, to propose to the FIM mid and
long-term sound level limits for Motocross and Enduro.
This Committee, presided by Mr Jean-Pierre Mougin, will quickly define a common working
programme as well as the correspondent planning, the target being to be able to decide during
the next FIM Congress in Durban, South Africa, on October 2008, about the plan of sound level
reductions until 2015. This Committee will examine in a second part the evolution of emission
levels, as well as the cubic capacity equivalence of 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines.
Moreover, the FIM and MSMA agreed to intensify their cooperation in order to find solutions
not only in Off-Road, but also in Road Racing.
President Vito Ippolito said: "This FIM/MSMA/Youthstream meeting represents a considerable
step forward for the future of our off road activities. As for motorcycling activities as a whole,
the strong will of collaboration between the FIM and MSMA represents a new starting point for
other future collaborations."

Cape Breton Race Did Not Have Approval to Proceed
Organizers of the Cape Breton Festival of Speed were told in writing on Nov. 15,
2005 and Feb. 24, 2006 that their race did not have approval to proceed,
primarily for safety reasons.
The Cape Breton Festival of Speed, a motor sport racing event based on races on
the Isle of Man, UK, was proposed for Sept. 20-24.
Staff from the Department of Transportation and Public Works informed organizers
that the Motor Vehicle Act does not support the racing of vehicles on public
highways and that the department could not give approval to close roads for the
event.
Staff from the Department of Transportation and Public Works and the Department
of Tourism, Culture and Heritage, met with organizers again this week to
reiterate government's position.
"In spite of being informed of the department's position on the race, organizers
continued to plan and promote the event. The news this week should not have come
as a surprise," Mr. MacIsaac added.

SANCTION APPROVAL WITHDRAWN FOR CAPE BRETON TT
The Canadian Motorcycle Association has today withdrawn the sanction for the Cape Breton TT Road Race, which was scheduled to take place from September 20 - 24 of this year.
Citing delays in necessary information being provided to the CMA as sanctioning body and to the insurer of the event, association General Manager Marilynn Bastedo expressed regret about the decision but stated that "such a major undertaking must be planned in a way that assures success at all levels, including and most importantly the security infrastructure. The deadlines for providing the information to us, and to the insurer, have not been met. There are now only a few months remaining and with the proposed race course snow covered for some of that time, the conclusion has been reached that the event is not viable at this time."

First up was the International Six Days Enduro which took place in Povazska Bystrica, Slovak Republic, from September 13th through 18th.
Despite an injury to team member Andy Weiss at the beginning of the competition, we finished in 16th place with medals going to Shane Cuthburtson (Silver), Clint Riviere (Bronze) and Lee Fryberger (Bronze). Our KTM Manufacturers Team comprised of Cuthbertson, Riviere and Derrick Sproule was 13th.
The Motocross of Nations was held in Ernee, France on September 24th and 25th before a record setting 60,000 fans. Canadian team members, Simon Homans, Doug Dehaan and Blair Morgan qualified for the main race and finished in 17th position.
Although a lower placing than in 2004, the riders were on machines arranged in Europe rather than their own, and had some mechanical issues to deal with as a result. By continuing to send a team every year, we should make a steady upward move well into the top 10.
We sent a very young men's team and a veteran women's team to the Trial des Nations, taking place on the same weekend in Sestriere, Italy. This was the first year we have been able to field a complete team and all signs point to a positive future for Canada at this event. Our women (Heather Wall, Christy and Kerry Williams) posted a 7th overall and the men (Sean Bird, Maxime Gobeil, Andrew Young and Matthew Zajac) were 10th in the International Trophy Class.
We are very proud of these teams, and the Team Managers and Jury Delegates who performed the important work that makes these projects possible.

MOTOCROSS OF NATIONS TEAM ANNOUNCED
- Aug 23, 2005Ernée, France is the location of the 2005 Motocross of Nations which takes place on September 24, 25.
The Canadian Motorcycle Association is pleased to announce that Canada will be represented in this National Team World Championship event. The team members are as follows:
Simon Homans, St-Elie d'Orford, QC
Doug Dehaan, Thorndale, ON
Blair Morgan, Prince Albert, SK

Information (905) 522-5705
Okanagan Dirt Riders announces affiliation with the Canadian Motorcycle Association in the midst of a record breaking season.
"I'm pleased to make it official," says George Madarasz, president of ODR.
In early June I dealt with Marilynn Bastedo at the CMA to discuss the
possibilities of bringing their association back to off-road racing in B.C. She
was very accommodating and energetic to re-establish a strong tie in the region
and I believe we were able to work out a fair arrangement. The CMA will provide
our series with premium insurance coverage and national race support for the
duration of 2005.
Riders will have to purchase the annual CMA license, however, because there are
only 3 races left in the season, the cost has been reduced from $60.00 to $40.00
per rider. We've been trying to keep the costs of racing low but I believe this
is a reasonable increase for the coverage we're getting as a community. In 2006
riders will be required to purchase a CMA license at $60.00 for the full season.
The Okanagan series that we started 3 years ago (with 30 loyal riders) has
blossomed into a solid Interior Race Series. Its been fascinating to watch it
grow-up and meet new people, and with that comes these kind of structural
additions.
TRIAL DES NATIONS TEAM ITALY BOUND

Diamond Jubilee Celebrations in 2006
Our association will celebrate its 60th Anniversary next year and plans are underway for a number of special events.
The first of these to be announced is a World Enduro Championships, planned for Parry Sound, Ontario, on July 15, 16 2006. It will be followed one week later by a round in the United States.
The event was approved by the FIM. It will be organized by World Enduro Canada, whose principals are Lawrence Hacking and Sean Wiesner, both of whom are past members of our ISDE Team.
Jubilee Projects include invitations to our affiliated clubs and promoters to submit proposals for anniversary events with the theme of " Motorcycling in the Community." We hope to announce the details in the early fall.
Life Member #12, Don Tickle, gave us the idea for another project when he asked if we knew how many Canadian citizens have started a race at the historic Isle of Man TT. Our records are not complete enough to provide him with the answer but we thought members might be interested in helping us to compile a Jubilee list of all the riders who have participated in FIM events since the CMA was founded in 1946.
If you have some memorabilia stored away, we invite you to send us the name of the rider, the event(s) ridden and in what year.
Rally Talk
The date is quickly approaching for our 10th CMA National Rally, taking place this year in Thunder Bay on August 12 – 14. The 2004 event in Prince Edward Island attracted 495 participants and we hope to equal or better that number in Thunder Bay.

Indoor
Trial at the World Games
-
May 18, 2005
The year 2005 is a very important one for the FIM, in particular for Trial: the FIM has been invited to take part in the World Games, to be held in Duisburg, Germany, this July. The World Games are an international sporting event held every four years (one year after the Olympic Games), under the patronage of the IOC, gathering together 34 sports (and 6 invited sports) which are not included in the Olympic Games, but which might be included in the near future. All Federations who are controlling these sports are officially recognised by the IOC, and the FIM - also officially recognised since 2000 - will take part in these Games for the second time since 1985, when a Speedway demonstration was held during the World Games organised that year in Great Britain.
It is thus the discipline of Indoor Trial, a specific sport in the motorcycle world, which was chosen by the FIM as a demonstration sport. It will be an Indoor Trial competition for National teams following the rules of the Indoor Trial des Nations with some adaptations for six teams instead of three (Spain, Great Britain, Japan, France, Italy and home country Germany) - in which all the best Trial riders regularly taking part in the World championship will compete, and a demonstration of Women's Trial. The event will be held on July 22 and 23 at the Arena Centre in Oberhausen, near Duisburg, at 19h00.
World Games : 1981 Santa Clara (USA) - 1985 London (GBR) - 1989 Karlsruhe (GER) - 1993 Den Haag (NED) - 1997 Lahti (FIN) - 2001 Akita (JPN).
In 2009, the World Games will take place in Taipei (Taiwan).

Facts about CMA Liability Insurance Coverage - Feb 4, 2004
Some organizers are being provided with incorrect information about our organization's arrangements with respect to providing a third party liability insurance service to our clubs and promoters.
In fact, the CMA has been providing this coverage for the close to 60 years we have been in existence.
Any suggest that our ability to do so depends on any other organization's approval is completely untrue.
The new rates for coverage effective March 1 through February 28/05 will be available in a few days.
Please contact the office if you wish further information.

Dec. 12 – Though it was raining outside the Cow Palace in San Francisco this last Saturday, the weather inside was beautiful for round 1 of the AMA Sports 2003-04 National Indoor Trials Championship.
With riders representing both the Canadian Motorcycle Association and the American Motorcyclist Association, this event was also a NAMU Continental Championship.
Under the red maple leaf flag were Canadian National Champions Ryon Bell and Wilson Craig. Representing the stars and stripes were Andy Johnson, Chris Florin, David Chaves, Raymond Peters, and seven-time AMA National Observed Trials Champion, Geoff Aaron.
In the first round, each rode seven sections individually. Johnson scored the highest and was the first eliminated. The six remaining riders then paired off, riding two identical sections head to head. Craig and Peters scored 24 and 33 points, respectively, and were the next two riders eliminated.
After the intermission, the remaining four riders, Bell, Aaron, Florin and Chaves, then rode all seven sections in succession. But this time they were given only 90 seconds to complete each of the first six sections and 2 minutes to complete the seventh. To make things even more interesting, they also rode the course backwards, except for the "teeter-totter" and "waterfall" sections.
In the end, Canadian rider Ryon Bell took home the win after compiling only 9 points riding a Gas Gas.
The next round will be on May 16, in Ontario, California.
| Rider | Bike | Points | Country |
| Ryon Bell | Gas Gas | 9 | Can. |
| Geoff Aaron | Gas Gas | 15 | USA |
| Chris Florin | Montesa | 22 | USA |
| David Chaves | Sherco | 24 | USA |
| Wilson Craig | Gas Gas | 24 | Can. |
| Raymond Peters | Beta | 33 | USA |
| Andy Johnson | Beta | 33 | USA |
