Breaking News! 

Mount Wawasee Lodge, INDIANA U.S.A. – January 30th, 2025 

1979 FIM Trial World Champion, Bernie Schreiber is to host a VINTAGE training weekend in Indiana.

AMERICA’S only World Trials Champion and Scottish Six Days Trial winner Bernie Schreiber will return once again to the USA in 2025 to conduct a two-day Vintage training weekend, exclusively reserved for pre-1984 twin-shock Vintage machines on 24/25 May.   

The event will be hosted by Michiana Trials Team in Indiana, a member club of MOTA. The Michigan Ontario Trials Association was created on February 19, 1967 in Detroit, Michigan. MOTA has a long history in American Trials hosting American National Championships and a World Championship in 1977.

2025 marks a special moment for Schreiber who started trials competition fifty-five years ago in California and still competes in Vintage events today. 1970 was the beginning of what later became a successful adventure overseas in the late 70’s and 80’s. This year is a celebration of 55 years of competing in a sport which originated in 1909.
