Welcome to this year's brand new hosting site for the Cochranton Poker Run. This event is once again bigger and better as it arrives into Pennsylvania's most popular atv riding town. The event is owned and maintained by the Allegheny Highland Pulling Association.

Big rigs, factory displays and related industry roll into the "Expo area" starting on Thursday, April 5th. The entire event will be moved this year to a new and larger location just on the other side of town. A local farmer has donated his pastures to accommodate the large crowds and displays. This new site will hold the starting areas, camping, parking, and the atv Expo.

This year, there will be 4 trails which will all have the same level of difficulty. This will help out with bottlenecks but don't expect any clean sailing with 10,000 expected riders! The staff are all volunteers from the local town and the AHPA...no one has a paid position....they are all donating their time and efforts for you. All proceeds will go towards local charities.

It takes over 150 landowners, who have donated their properties, to put on this years event. Be sure to wave to them on the way by....if it wasn't for support from these folks, we wouldn't have such a great event to be a part of. Please respect the fields and farms and remain on the trail systems.

Camping and parking space will be allotted on a per-machine basis. Individuals transporting numerous atv's for a group of participants will be assessed on each machine on board with no charge for participants arriving without machines. These haulers (trailers etc.) should be fee prepared for the number of machines on board.

New to this year, is a professional atv auction. If you have an atv, in good or bad condition, this is your chance to have it auctioned off. Serious enquiries can be made to the auctioneer (info is in the forums).

There is a formal flyer that is posted in our Pa Atving.com forums....please stop in and have a look! All important facts and details are posted as well as any questions you may have. Be sure to register (free) and help build a quality site for Pa atv'rs
