Carson City Sheriff's Office 20th Motor Office Training Challenge happening Friday and Saturday
Join local law enforcement in sharing food, fun, and friendship this Friday and Saturday, July 14-15 while the Carson City Sheriff's Office holds the 20th Annual Police Motorcycle Training and Competition.
The event is held at Battle Born Harley Davidson, 2900 Research Way, in Carson City. Admission is free and will include a raffle open to the public during set up for "Last Man Standing," the most popular of spectator events, where the last rider to stay upright without placing his feet or motorcycle on the ground wins.
Training will begin Friday, July 14, allowing riders to learn specific skills to negotiate challenging cone patterns.
Saturday, July 15, the competition will kick off at 8 a.m. The day will allow riders to display their riding skills for Northern Nevada community members and visitors.
Officers and civilians will be riding motorcycles of all makes and models, competing against each other, the clock, and even the flow of gravity as they attempt to stay on two wheels.
This two-day event brings together officers, civilians, and for the first time ever, retired military and National Guard motorcycle riders from across the region and state.
Event spectators will have the opportunity to meet officers to discuss rider safety and share riding information.
For more information on registration and vendor space or to donate to the raffle, please contact Jessica Dickey at jdickey@Carson.org or Deputy Jason Gault at jgault@carson.org.
