Bank of America Credit Card - If you have a B of A credit card and use it to charge your AHRMA entry fees, AHRMA will receive a rebate as part of the B of A/AHRMA affinity program. It does not cost you anything but will result in a rebate of credit card fees to AHRMA. The quarterly rebates have been about $500. Just another way to help support your racing organization.

Jones Brown Motorsports and AHRMA announce a new Rider Accident Medical Insurance Plan for AHRMA members.

AHRMA has been able to secure a replacement rider accident insurance program to fill the gap that was left when AHRMA and the AMA separated in 2009. There is a complete write up of this coverage in the April issue of Vintage Views. Take a look at it and take advantage of it if you need coverage to fill the gap that was formally filled by the AMA’s RAMP/ARMOR program. The new coverage is being handled by Jones Brown Motorsports of Las Vegas, Nevada who is also the provider of our event insurance coverage since 2009.

All AHRMA members competing in AHRMA events are required to have medical insurance (see Rule 3.4.1.b) with this plan all AHRMA members are eligible for coverage. Benefits are paid when a member is injured while taking part as a registered rider, working support crew for a rider, or working as an official in an AHRMA event.

The rates for the Jones Brown program are less than those charged by the AMA for the RAMP/ARMOR policies and do not have any monthly add on administrative fees in the fine print either. The reduced rate is possible due to the fact that the Jones Brown program has a reduced AD&D amount on the accident program, but this is being supplemented by a $10,000 AD&D amount that comes as a part of the event insurance policies now in place with Jones Brown. In the end – we have a comparable product at a lower rate for those who wish to participate which should be a help in our current economy!

Agendas and times will be published in Vintage Views and on this web site at a future time.
