I traded in my car for a Yamaha blue pickup before the first day of 2014 and showed up

to the Brooksville Hare Scrambles with my dog, her crate and a tent ready for my first FTR camping trip since high school. That night happened to be one of the coldest nights but the dog and I toughed it out. The next morning, I raced to a second place finish at the first race of the year and was looking forward to

finishing out the second half of the Enduro series.

Two weeks later and I’m in the hospital with a broken ankle after

crashing in a parking lot while riding my bicycle - I couldn’t get clipped out of my pedals before I hit the ground. It had been 10 years since my last

crash-related surgery. As motorcyc l e people put it “It’s the price we pay to play.”

While I heal, I’m especially grateful for

everyone’s well wishes and prayers that keep coming. If it weren’t for my FTR family, I would have no family at all. - JS

January 29, 2014 - Teleconference call

8:40 P.M. Official vote called to order by President

ROll Call :FORD SnODgRaSS (President), Amanda Richardson (Vice President), Kayla Vawter (Secretary), Kevin Vaughn (Tresurer), Mike Belle (Hare Scrambles Chair), Rick Dreggors (MX Chair), Jeremy Powell (Enduro Chair)

QuORuM nOteD to condust business.

PuRPOSe OF this meeting is to discuss the situation that happened at the Palm Beach Track & Trail event on January 18, 2014, involving Billy Dodson and Nick Munno. Billy (Quad B Open) was signed up to race and did practice. Nick, who was not an FTR member at the time, actually rode Billy’s bike in the race pretending to be Billy. The numbers were unchanged; he lined up on Billy’s row and wore most of the same gear Billy had used to ride practice that morning. This went without notice by any of the officials and most of the riders at the race, and the scores were posted showing Billy had finished in 6th place, which was usual for Billy. Several FTR Members later contacted Mike Belle later on what had taken place.

In RegaRD to Billy: Ford made a motion to expel Billy Dodson indefinitely from Florida Trail Riders.Jeremy seconded.

DISCuSSIOn: This motion comes based on only what took place involving the incident that occurred on January 18 and not any other issues that have involved Billy in the past (ex: Billy vs. Jacob). Ford was told by Billy that he rode the race and nobody else raced

for him. Mike Belle was told later that he had someone else ride for him by Billy and several other FTR members.With this expulsion he would be completely banned from attending any and all events with FTR. He would be allowed to petition the Executive Committee later on and asked to be reinstated.

unanIMOuS vOte - Motion passes to expel Billy Dodson from FTR indefinitely.

In RegaRD to Nick: Ford made a motion to expel Nick for the rest of the 2014 Season entirely from FTR and the 2014 Banquet which will include a probation starting July 1, 2014 – June 30, 2015; if probation is violated he will be expelled indefinitely.

DISCuSSIOn: Expulsion for the remainder of the season would include:No forum privileges, no attendance at any events, and not allowed to attend the 2014 banquet.A few EC members did not completely agree with this punishment and discussed a few different ideas including a longer period of expulsion – different motion was not made as this motion passed.

vOte: 5-2 (Jeremy & Kevin) – Motion passes to expel Nick for the rest of the 2014 Season and to be on probation during July 1, 2014 – June 30, 2015 and if probation is violated he will be expelled indefinitely.

* tIM Nordle has contacted Ford about a raise. Tim is currently contracted and getting paid $1500 each HareScramble event. Tim currently pays the members of the sign up crew and his fuel to get to each event with the scoring trailer out of this money. Tim asked for a $300 raise for each event.

MIke MaDe a motion that we give Tim a $300 raise for each event that would be effective with his new contract.Kevin seconded.

unanIMOuS vOte - Motion passes to give Tim a raise at the start of his new contract.

Jeremy made a motion to adjourn meeting.Kayla seconded.

Chaplain’s CornerHello FTR Family,

W ow! What about this weather. We have now had two extreme cold spells. Last month, at

the Palm Beach Track and Trail event (on Saturday night,) it reached 28 degrees! That race is in South Florida! Instead of asking, “Where’s Waldo?” How about asking, “Where’s Al Gore?”

Though the nights may have been pretty chilly, the daytime racing has been fantastic! Hats off to the clubs for some great events. Most of you know I have been off my bike since I broke my ankle at the Sunrunner’s event on November 9. However, I threw my leg over the saddle this Saturday (rode the Sportsman’s Class) at the Treasure Coast Trail Riders race and had a blast. It was great to ride with friends and cruise around the course for fun. Thanks, TCTR.

I want to take just a moment to say thank you to the Florida Trail Rider Family for their generous support of Jason Garrett. Your kindness and generosity is greatly appreciated. Since his accident so many of you have asked how he is doing. Unfortunately he has racked up 15 surgeries and has a long way to go toward recovery. However, when you chat with him, you would be amazed to hear his resolve to move forward in his life. This FTR member is really amazing. Jason, if you are reading this, remember that many are praying for you. Press on!

Let me leave you with these closing thoughts. All of us have issues, trials and problems. If we are honest, most of the dilemmas we face each day are small and insignificant when compared to the grand scheme of life. Sure, we may be uncomfortable or even aggravated, yet dwelling on those feelings can take us off our daily focus. However, there are times where life throws us a curve that seems insurmountable. We may see no hope or no way out; we may not even see a future. Yet there is a future. A great big God loves you and is concerned about His plan for

you. In Philippians 4:13 we find this statement:

“I can do all thIngs through chrIst who strengthens me.”

If we give ourselves to Christ, there is a future. Please don’t be misled and think I am saying that you will not have any problems. What I am saying is that when you walk through those dark days of discouragement, you are not alone. Christ is there to strengthen you, to help you make it through. Most people live their life in their own strength; under their own terms. You can do that for a short while but not for eternity. Let me encourage you to lean on Christ and find your

strength in Him. When life fails us and does not turn out like we expect, Jesus is always faithful and true.

See you at the races!Your friend,

Andy DicksonFtR Chaplain

As we enter the second half of the 2013-2014 Florida Trail Riders FTR Motocross Series, we continue to have good turnouts and great racing. Our last race was Round 6 at Sunshine, which had to be rescheduled to

February 3 due to a conflict in our original Sunshine race date. Frank and Casey Valente, who operate Sunshine, were most gracious in accommodating our change and even with the weather making the track challenging from the rain they received Friday night, race conditions on Sunday were really good particularly for the second motos. Needless to say, we did not have to water the track Saturday or Sunday.

There was a good turnout for Saturday practice but the track was muddy. Fortunately, some of us brought pressure washers allowing riders to clean their bikes. Hopefully everyone got plenty of practice in on Saturday. Frank and his staff made additional changes to the track Saturday night and we changed the layout for the 50cc racers, which helped make for much better racing for the youngest FTR riders.

There was a serious accident late in the first set of motos but the young man who was injured is doing fine and we expect a full recovery. He will be back on a bike soon.

Your FTR MX Committee wants to thank everyone who showed up and look forward to seeing each of you and more at the remaining four rounds of the series.

Round 7 is scheduled for March 16 at Mesa Park MX track in Fellsmere, Fla. We raced Mesa earlier in the season and the new operators of Mesa, Garry Cousins and his family, do a terrific job of running the track.

Round 8 is scheduled for Bostwick. We have had to change the date to March 30 to avoid a conflict with a Loretta Lynn’s qualifier occurring in Florida on the original date of this round. The race will be still be held at Bostwick Creek MX track and will be joint race with the Florida/Georgia Series. At an earlier round of this race we had almost 300 entries, and I expect and hope to have similar turnout for Round 8.

Round 9 will be April 27 at Motocross of Marion County (Reddick). This will be another joint race with the Florida/Georgia Series. Last year, the FTR MX Series had the largest turnout of our entire series when we raced at Reddick. As the Hare Scrambles season ends on April 12, I hope a lot of Hare Scrambles riders will consider attending Round 9 at Reddick. Reddick is one of the oldest and most well-known tracks in the state and holds one of the largest Loretta Lynn’s qualifiers and more recently the AHRMA Nationals and the Vet Nationals. In addition, the track is rarely open for racing, so if you ever wanted to ride Reddick or enjoy being there, please plan on attending Round 9.

We finish up our season on May 18 with Round 10 back at Dade City. For those who were at our earlier round at Dade City, you should recall that Randy Yoho has poured literally tons of new clay to cover the entire track including the extended track. Everyone who raced there earlier in our season loved the changes Randy has made and it shows in his upgrades to the track. Round 10 will be the conclusion of your FTR MX Series and it will be our final joint race with the Florida/Georgia Series for this season.

As always, I look forward to seeing everyone at our events, and if anyone has any questions, please let me know.

BillName? Bill Cone, #35 SportsmanWho is in the family? Claudine, Julia, Kayla, Lexi and JarrodWhere does the family live? Fort LauderdaleWhen did you join FTR?November 2000What is your best memory of FTR? On a personal note, one of my best memories of racing was battling and beating Chad Hunter for the jacket back in the “B” days. “The Creeper” - Great friends during that season and ever since.

Best thing about racing?The pressure of pushing yourself and bike to its limits. Finding your edge!What is one thing you need to work on in terms of racing?“Back Pain”Best advice you’ve ever heard? Sleep with your front brake lever under pillow!! “Thanks, turtle.”

What is your favorite track to race? Can’t answer - all the club members put their heart and sweat every time to change my mind every race, they’re all favorites.Who is helping you out?My wife – support, great cooking, taking care of us.My kids – helping pack, maintaining bikes.TF Racing Suspension – They give the best you can get!

I can’t think of a better place to raise your kids. The parents have a pretty good time, too. The years have taught them and me to work hard for something that you want, never give up. Earn it, practice and have fun. The whole world could use more of that. Where else can you go and let your young ones loose anymore? They can’t even ride a bike around the corner like we could when we were kids. Inside the landowner’s gates with all our FTR family, it’s the safest place in my eyes and for $10 a weekend, the times are priceless.What is your favorite work duty at your race?Being involved in making a sweet section of the track, knowing that everyone racing will love it. Helping out club members and working together as a team. Special thanks to Jenn Sheppard and Dorothy Dekmar for this opportunity.

ClaudineName? Claudine ConeWhen did you join FTR?My husband joined in 2000. I have been attending/supporting him and now my children since then.What is your best memory of FTR?There are so many! Watching my hubby start in the Beginner class and make it all the way to Vet A. The first time each one of the girls completed their first peewee race. Seeing Julia and Kayla start racing

in the 65 class on the big track: Scary, exciting and challenging on a mom waiting for them to come through chicane. So many emotions but, if I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. All the wonderful friends we have met from all over the state - 14 years of valued family time. Memories that will last a lifetime.Best thing about racing? The motivation it gives them not just on the track but off the track, too.Training to build endurance, strength and most importantly confidence. Not giving up but working harder to accomplish a goal.Have you had to overcome anything? Yes. The first obstacle was my husband’s back problem that has put his racing in the A class on hold. That was hard for all of us to deal with. We have always loved watching him out there. Since then, he has turned all his time and energy toward helping his girls excel in racing. Secondly, I would have to say I have had to overcome the fear of having three girls racing. The starts still get to me but it’s getting easier and easier. Best advice you’ve ever heard? When I start to worry about the girls out there racing, my husband reminds of the time Julia at 4 years old

Not saying it can’t happen, but the odds of 15 seasons racing and the only break was due to a fall off the couch is pretty incredible. Who is helping you out? So many!
