Sandusky Valley Riders Motorcycle Club (SVR) is a member-operated motocross and off-road riding facility. SVR was established in 1928 as a Motorcycle Club and introduced to Motocross in 1975. Its members are proud of our long tradition and love everything about motorcycles. Our facility resides on approximately 40 acres. The property has some river frontage areas and has a creek in the center. If you're looking for somewhere to ride with natural terrain, this is the place.
Our property contains miles of riding trails and also has a 1.3 mile-long motocross track. The track is mostly natural terrain with elevation changes, man-made doubles, table tops and some rhythm sections. We believe that whether you're just out riding with other members or here for the big race, everyone should always have fun and be safe. There is a Peewee track for our younger riders who are not yet ready for the big track. We have over 280 members at SVR with all levels of skill. Our track is designed to let all skill level riders have an enjoyable time. The track is mainly hard packed clay and is fast and challenging. 9During the nicer months there are Street Rides.

Members are required to provide support by paying yearly membership dues. Second year and subsequent years dues can be reduced or eliminated by earning points in the SVR points system. This system is designed to reward those members who choose to work and maintain the grounds, conditioning the track, working at the events, and many other tasks required to keep the club operational. Work like this is absolutely necessary to be a successful operation. Members are strongly encouraged to participate in workdays, as well as attend club meetings and work on event weekends. TEAM WORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK!
All memberships are family memberships: includes Spouse and children 18 and under. Questions, please ask.
First-year membership dues are $600 that includes a refundable $200 initiation fee. The initiation fee will be returned to new members upon signing up to work TWO motocross events (that are 50 points or higher) and maintaining those work commitments. If you fail to maintain the commitment without proper notification you will not be eligible for refund. Pee Wee, Pit Bike, or Harescrambles do not count towards the initiation fee. Subsequent yearly membership dues are $400 plus an additional processing fee of $25 that is waived if dues are postmarked before March 1st for the upcoming year. Members who do not renew by March 31st for the upcoming year will be treated as a new member. NO EXCEPTIONS!

Club Bucks can be redeemed for gate fees for guests, event registration fees, club apparel, and future membership fees. Club Bucks will not expire and can be carried over year to year.
It is your responsibility to make sure your points are recorded correctly and timely. Record your time the same day it is worked. There is a binder on the counter in the clubhouse for recording. Please record points under the membership holder's name.
It is also your responsibility to ensure your contact information is up to date with the treasurer.
The track is open to riding all year for members only, with the exceptions of scheduled workday hours and race weeks. The track closes Tuesday evening before a race weekend for the remainder of the week. You are encouraged to help on those days to get the track ready for our event weekend. Points can be logged for hours worked getting our track race day ready. Reach out to a Club officer to see what work needs done. No early parking on event weeks, unless you signed up to work the event!
Please join the SVR Members only page on Facebook. This is the best way to obtain updates and ask questions. The SVR website is kept up to date. It is recommended to review these two sites for questions you may have. If you still have questions, please feel free to reach out to the club officers.
At all public events, Members are REQUIRED to PAY for races and a discounted price for practice!! Only members and those covered under the active membership do not have to pay the gate fee. And please put money in the electric box if you are plugged in using the electric.
Campers/trailers and other personal items/belongings are not to be left for longer than 1 week. These must be removed from the property, not just relocated. Exceptions can be made with a discussion with one of the officers. See the list below of club officers.
Motocross is an activity that you assume at your own risk. Please read your membership application. Safety gear is required.
NON MEMBERS ARE NOT PERMITTED TO RIDE! NO EXCEPTIONS! If you are caught doing this you will forfeit your membership.
Quad riders, side x side, and 3 wheelers are not permitted on the motocross track. Only permitted to ride the trails and turn track.
Member Tim Vaughn owns property that abuts the track on the North side. Please mind the signs! Some times throughout the race season, Mr. Vaughn allows us to use some of his property for that event and that event ONLY. Mr. Vaughn has not allowed access to his property any other day, be sure to know where the track property ends and Mr. Vaughn’s property begins. If you do not know, please see a long-time club member or an officer for clarification.
