AMA THANKS COOMBS FOR SERVICE TO AMA BOARD

PICKERINGTON, Ohio — The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) has announced that Davey Coombs has resigned from the AMA Board of Directors. A successor has not yet been named. Coombs had been a corporate member of the AMA Board since 2001.

“It is with great regret that I have decided to resign from the board at this time and allow someone else with more time to pick up my spot,” Coombs said. “I enjoyed my time on the board immensely and I will remain a strong advocate for the Association.”

“The Directors, staff, and membership of the AMA extend to Davey our sincere appreciation for his service,” said Rick Gray, Chairman of the AMA Board of Directors. “His commitment to the Association is in the tradition of the Coombs family, which has made immeasurable contributions to American motorcycling. We’ll certainly miss Davey’s valuable presence and keen insights as a Director, and we wish him all the best.”

The AMA Board of Directors consists of 12 members. Six individual Directors are elected by the general membership in their respective regions and serve three-year terms. Six corporate Directors are elected by the corporate membership and serve two-year terms. The AMA Board of Directors meets four times a year.
