Carson City Sheriff’s 16th Extreme Motor Officer’s Training Challenge begins Thursday
The Carson City Sheriff’s Office 16th Annual Extreme Motor Officer Training Challenge returns this week, Thursday through Saturday, June 20-22 at Mills Park.
The training event will be held at the Marv Teixeira Pavilion, 1111 East William Street and is open to the public to watch. The event is open to current certified motor officers. Motor officers will be training, riding and discussing riding techniques with various motor instructors.
The annual training event is designed to help motor officers enhance their riding skills through challenging skill patterns with camaraderie and competition.
Training and practice will be held on June 20-22 beginning around 7 a.m. and running until around 5 p.m. The training and practice will be held at Mills Park inside Marv Teixeira Pavilion.
Following the training and practice, the team events will begin Saturday, June 22 with individual events starting around 8 a.m. and running until 5 p.m.
The day will end with one final event called Last Man Standing. All officers who participated in the training event enter into a large space and try to be the last man standing.
The rules for this event are simple, no intentional ramming or hitting cones. If you put your foot down or hit a cone you are knocked out of the event. This is very fun to watch and will occur after each rider has completed their individual run. Timing for this event is between 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
