There are new insurance policy requirements for 2025.

All attendees and participants will be required to sign an AMA liability release form. Not just riders, but spectators, vendors, and campers too. This is different from previous years when only those involved in riding events were required to sign a release.

There are separate and unique liability releases for each sanctioned event. The events are listed below:

1. Rally (Sanction #83663): Includes camping BBQ, banquet, swap meet, parade, poker run, trail ride, misc. social activities (e.g., Ice cream social) – All participants, volunteers, and spectators
2. Trials School (Sanction #84319): All participants, volunteers, and spectators
3. Observed Trial (Sanction #83666): All participants, volunteers, and spectators
4. MX (Sanction #83669): All participants, volunteers, and spectators

LIABILITY RELEASES (WAIVERS) FOR MINORS
If both parents will be in attendance, then they can just sign the minor release at the event. If not, then the minor must have proof of a current annual release on file with the AMA or they must bring a liability release form for each event that they will be attending or participating in that has been signed by both parents and NOTARIZED.

Releases for minors MUST be signed by both parents (if applicable). Remember there is a different release for each of the sanctioned events listed above.

If you’re planning to attend all the events at Hodaka Days – Rally, trials school, observed trial, and MX – you will need four signed releases.

If no legal guardian will be attending the event (attending with only a friend or relative), we’ll also need a NOTARIZED Guardianship Affidavit appointing an attending adult as a guardian for the time of the event.

Only one guardianship affidavit is required.
Minors must have the proper liability release paperwork, including the Guardianship Affidavit to attend or participate in any of the sanctioned events. We cannot make exceptions.

The forms needed can be downloaded at www.hodakaclub.org. They are on the main page under “Hodaka Days 2025 Forms”. Be sure to download the correct release. Each release is unique to a specific event.
