ACUSA PARK TAKING SHAPE FOR THE 2020 RIDE DAYS

March 13, 2020 Filed Under: All disciplines, News

ACUSA Park WORKING BEE UPDATE

Update from the ACUSA Park committee and their band of volunteers.

Another huge effort was made again by a great bunch of volunteers that attended over the March Long Weekend. Thank you to everyone for your time and there were some massive achievements made.

The old fence has been removed from the dirt track and the post holes have been dug ready to replace it. Loose tyres off the motocross tracks are being removed and placed on to the outer edge of the dirt track ready to be made into a safety tyre wall. Two new junior training tracks have been constructed on the western end of track 2 (the old pits) and post holes have also been dug ready for a new fence.

A new creek crossing has been constructed on track 2 making it wider and safer while also opening up the creek flow. Thanks to some great support from companies and individuals that donated machinery over the weekend track 2 has some new dirt on it ready to be spread out, track 1 has had a creek crossing widened and the trail loop received some much needed attention and re-instating.

A new announcing tower & scoring facility has been located at the dirt track with fencing re designed to allow longer run off areas. A loading ramp has been constructed and was successfully used throughout the weekend. A clean up of the property has also taken place and will continue on.

The men’s toilet block has been stripped bare inside and is now ready for a new kit out. This this scheduled for the Easter weekend if you would like to help. New signage for the entire property has been made and ready to be placed around the property.

The new creek crossing (above & below) – under expert supervision and getting down and dirty in the trenches!

So there is a lot happening and still more to do. The ACUSA Park Committee and Motorcycling SA are determined to get the park upgraded and will continue to improve it as much as possible going forward. This can only happen if the park is being used for Ride Days and also hired out, which creates revenue and that means more can be spent on the property for improvements. The first open to the public Ride Day for 2020 is scheduled for Sunday April 26th.

It’s important that we not only advertise the Ride Days but also get the word out that even though there has been some fire damage to the property it will be business as usual at the Park. Please feel free to pass this information on in preparation for the coming season.

Thanks again if you were one of the many that donated your time to the working bees, it’s been great to have your support again.

The next scheduled days are;

Sat. March 21st from 8.00am until noon. If you would like to continue on we will also be there throughout the weekend and we welcome anyone that wants to stay on and lend a hand. Camping is permitted and the BBQ will be available for all to use.

Easter weekend from Friday 10th April.

If you are available, we would sincerely appreciate a hand if only for a few hours. If you are able to bring a trailer, chainsaw and wire cutters, bolt cutters, fencing pliers etc. it would be handy but not essential. Also bring gloves and safety glasses, etc if you have them.

Coffee & tea will be supplied through the weekend.

MOTORCYCLING SA 2020 ELITE RIDER PROGRAM SQUAD ANNOUNCED

March 13, 2020 Filed Under: All disciplines, News, SA Women in Motorcycling

MOTORCYCLING SA 2020 ELITE RIDER PROGRAM SQUAD ANNOUNCED

Motorcycling SA are thrilled to be relaunching the Motorcycling SA Elite Rider Program in 2020, after opening up applications only a few weeks ago, we have been inundated by fantastic applications from riders wanting to participate in the Elite Rider Program & the Elite Rider Conference coming up at the end of this month.  With the bar being set at a very high standard from the years gone past this made selection for this year’s squad very difficult.

The Elite Rider Program remains aimed at the finest & most talented young riders aged between 16 and under 21, to assist them in building their racing careers.  With the specific focus to ensure the highest quality riders are offered the opportunities of being part of the squad.

“South Australia has some great talent and it’s important to offer development opportunities to those who strive to be the best in South Australia. Our young riders of today need to have the same or better opportunities to make that elite level as some of our larger neighbours. The Elite Rider Program enables us to work closely with the best young talent in SA, and from a range of disciplines” says Brenton Matters, Motorcycling SA President.

In 2020 the Elite Rider Program will be condensed into two full days of intensive off bike training in a conference format aimed at increasing the selected rider’s knowledge in areas of fitness, nutrition, media and marketing as well as helping them with mental preparation. These tools will enhance participant’s performance & profile within the sport.

Each rider has been selected by Motorcycling SA because they have demonstrated excellent results over the past year(s).  In addition to their results they have been able to demonstrate that they have a great attitude and commitment, with the potential to be future champions of our sport and to become excellent ambassadors & representatives for motorcycling.

Motorcycling SA has great pleasure to announce that the following riders which have been selected for the Elite Rider Program in 2020. Congratulation to the following riders-

“I am thrilled to relaunch this program in 2020. We have been able to select a great mix across our disciplines with the applicants we have had.  With our past camps/programs we have seen great success come of the riders involved, winning national titles, representing Australia and going on to great things in their careers.” says Andrew Warnest, Motorcycling SA Projects & Media Officer.

“This new 2 day format for the program is going to be a steep learning curve, and physical test, for all the selected riders, but it will be so useful for their future development within the sport & careers” he says.

These selected riders will be put through their paces on the April 4th and then on July 18th.

The Motorcycling SA Elite Rider Program will once again follow all the Squad members throughout their season, providing follow up sessions as needed, and tracking performance on track.

Stay tuned for more announcements in the coming days about the program.

On Sunday there will be the first of the ‘Women’s Days’ for 2020 with the Women’s Only Come & Try / Practise Day at South Coast’s track at Monarto, and with 30+ taking part last year, it’s hoped to break through the 50 rider barrier this year – get around it!
