Just renewed my comp license after 35 years away from trials.Got a really big envelope full of info from the CMA with her name everywhere.How many years has she been at the controls of the CMA? Holy crap!
 
Way too long and she needs to let someone else take over.
She is holding back Canadian Motocross on the international side of it all... Really hurting the talented guys we have here.

Hey, if it's good for the DOCC then it must be okay elsewhere.
 
CMA is nothing for motocross anymore. CMRC is, (for now) the dominant club across the country, with a true coast to coast national series. However, it is NOT recognized by the FIM and it hurts out riders. Americans come up here to cherry pick, or a 20th place AMA national rider will come up here and battle for top 5. We're a stepping stone.

If she would just let go of it, give the international recognition to the CMRC then maybe we could get somewhere.

CMRC isn't what it once was, and that is only the fault of greedy, backstabbing people at the top. I hear of a lot of the crap that goes on, and it's tasteless.
Year after year they book the Montreal "supercross" the same weekend as the MX of Nations. The top two teams in Canada that have good Canadian riders won't let those riders go and compete to represent the country because they want their sponsors to have their guys at the Montreal race.

Canadian MX really is a joke, and there needs to be a change over up top... Luckily there are a few clubs gaining steam, and maybe some day rival the CMRC.
