AOMC Named Presenting Sponsor At TKO
A
OMC (Appalachian Of-
froad Motorcycle Com-
pany), one of the premier
motorcycle dealerships and
parts/accessories/gear
suppliers in the country,
based in West Virginia, that
became a Kenda Ten-
nessee Knockout partner
in 2018, will ramp up its
involvement for 2019. They
will again be the presenting
sponsor for the Women's
class and, new for 2019, it
will be the presenting spon-
sor for the Friday afternoon
Amateur Prologue.
The Women will be com-
peting for an AMA Grand
Championship number-one
plate and a $2000 purse, with $1000 going to the
winner. The top three finishers will also earn the
opportunity to compete in Sunday's pro class.
The Friday afternoon AOMC Amateur Prologue
will provide riders the opportunity to earn their
Saturday starting positions. The course will be
designed to produce a lap time in the 3-5 minute
range and be challenging enough to allow the
best riders to earn the best starting positions. The
Amateur Prologue will be for both the AMA Grand
Championship pre-qualified riders (to set their
starting position for Saturday race two) and riders
entered in the TKO amateur class to determine
their starting positions for Saturday's race one. Any
riders that do not participate in the prologue will be
lined up after those that participate in the prologue
based on their sign-up order.
"We are happy to expand our involvement with
the TKO," said Jamin Jones, the AOMC CEO.
"The popularity of Extreme Enduro events has
grown rapidly over the past few years, and the TKO
has proven to be a great event for both riders and
spectators." CN
