SA’S ICONIC 24 HOUR TRIAL – THIS WEEKEND FROM THE EUDUNDA OVAL!

July 11, 2019 Filed Under: Enduro, News, Reliability, State Championship

SA’S ICONIC 24 HOUR TRIAL – THIS WEEKEND FROM THE EUDUNDA OVAL!

The 2019 South Australian Reliability Trials Championships heads to Eudunda over this weekend, July 13 & 14, with the running of, arguably, SA’s most iconic event on the calendar each year, The 24 Hour Trial.

First run in 1924, 2019 will see the 95th anniversary of that first event and the 87th running of the event through those years, and this year it will be based, and start, from the Eudunda Sporting Complex on Saturday, July 13th at 11.00am and will be an event of 4 laps over the 24 hour period, with bike #1, all being well, crossing the finish line at 11.00am Sunday morning.

        

Who to watch in 2019; The 24 Hour website has a list of ‘who’s hot’, in both solo & sidecar for this year, with it being a very open field as they chase last years Champions, Riley Graham (outright & solo) and Mark Launer & Tyson Rohrlach (sidecar)!

 

For more information visit www.24hrtrial.com

Spectator viewing; Instructions to the spectator locations are now up on the 24 Hour Trial website, and will also will be included in the official event programme, which will be available at Main Control – with 2019 also playing host to a number of International riders from Wales.

Property respect;

The course runs through private farm land which has been generously provided by the local farmers, many of which are in crop this time of the year. Our priority is to look after the land and land owners, therefore with permission of some land owners, we have provided designated spectator areas for the public to access.

Access to these areas is permitted on foot only but camping is not permitted within the property. Please take rubbish with you when leaving these areas.

We also ask that all competitors and support crew (family, friends, whoever) respect our landowners and all signage regarding where you can and cannot go. If anyone is spotted in a location that is prohibited for spectators, both those support crews and the rider they are with will be asked to pack up and leave the event immediately.

Our property owners are the only reason we able to run this event, we would like to thank you in advance for respecting the private property we have been granted use of by not returning after the event.

Catering facilities, merchandise & programme sales; All will be available at Main Control, which will be at the Eudunda Oval in the Show Hall – also be aware of less room this year at the oval due to major renovations.

The 24 Hour Trial Organising Committee would like to thanks their very valuable partners for the 2019 event;

Platinum partners;

 

Silver partners;

Bronze partner;

FUEL – for non-competitors;

This year Sskids Tyres & Mechanical are the only spot to fill up in Eudunda with fuel, they are open;

Saturday 13th July; 9.00am – 12.00am

Sunday 14th July; 6.00am – 12.00pm

2019 24 HOUR TRIAL – ENTRIES CLOSE THIS FRIDAY NIGHT @ MIDNIGHT!

REGISTRATION CLOSES: 14-JUN-2019 11:59 PM

The 24 Hour Trial, South Australia’s longest running event, and possibly only 2nd in fame to the Sellicks Beach races, is the pinnacle event of the seven round SA Reliability Trials Championship Series (SART), with this being round 4. 

2018 24 Hour Trial Outright & Open Solo Champion, Riley Graham

2018 24 Hour Trial Open Sidecar Champion, Mark Launer & Tyson Rohrlach

Since its beginning in 1924 this historical off-road event has lived up to its name as a test of rider stamina and machine reliability, the trial is held annually on the second weekend of July and rotates the starting point between the country towns of Kapunda and Eudunda each year.

And now it is also the halfway point of the 2019 South Australian Reliability Trials Championships, and will start in 2019 from the Eudunda Sporting Complex.

2019 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN RELIABILITY TRIALS CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 3 THIS SATURDAY & SUNDAY AT ROBERTSTOWN.

June 6, 2019 Filed Under: News, Reliability, State Championship

2019 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN RELIABILITY TRIALS CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND 3 THIS SATURDAY & SUNDAY AT ROBERTSTOWN.

This Saturday sees round 3 of the 2019 SART Championship kick off from the Robertstown Oval, the Velocette MCC’s Lew Job 2 Day Reliability Trial, which will start with almost 100 entries, solo and sidecar, from 1.30pm on Saturday and 9.01am on Sunday, and is sponsored this year by Titanium Security Australia.

Run in honour of Velocette MCC Life Member, and long time sidecar rider, Lew Job, this year’s event will one to remember, but with an old favourite missing, with Springhut Creek having a rest for the first time in many years

Once again it looks to be a dry affair, with little rain falling in the area so far in 2019, and what has fallen in the past 2 weeks will not be enough to quell the dust!

However, if you are heading out to watch, perhaps put in a rain jacket, as it wouldn’t be the first time that decent and heavy rains have started to fall down in the Robertstown Ranges not long after bike #1 starts their 2 day journey in this event!

Spectators won’t have far to go to watch some great action, with a competitive section close to main control.

So, with free entry for spectators, a fully catered event at Main Control, bring along a deck chair and sit down to watch some great 2, AND 3, wheeled action during the afternoon and into the evening Saturday of this 2 day event.

Here’s all the low down of the days;

80+ SOUTH AUSSIES TO TACKLE FINKE THIS WEEKEND!

June 3, 2019 Filed Under: Enduro, Motocross, News, Reliability

Over 80 South Australian riders, including a couple expat Croweaters, on 2 & 4 wheels will tackle one of Australia’s most iconic events, the Finke Desert Race, starting & finishing this weekend in Alice Springs.

For those who don’t know what ‘Finke’ is;
The Tatts Finke Desert Race is an off road, multi terrain two-day race for bikes, cars, buggies and quads through desert country from Alice Springs to the small Aputula (Finke) community. The race is held each year on the Queen’s Birthday long weekend in June.

“Finke” as it is commonly known, is one of the biggest annual sporting events in the Northern Territory and has the reputation of being one of the most difficult offroad courses in one of the most remote places in the world. Finke is unique and the most fun you can have with a helmet on!

The above is straight off their website – and says it all in a nutshell really!
For all of the information – including the rider list – so you can see who from SA is having a crack – head to; www.finkedesertrace.com.au

Their website also includes all the details for spectators and where you can and can’t go, or camp along the track, as well as what is happening in and around Alice Springs during the week long event.

Leading the SA Charge will be Kent Collins (#4) and Daniel Banks (#13), with Kent keen to get onto the podium after finishing 4th outright last year, with Dan keen to crack the top 10 after finishing 13th in 2018! 

Good luck to all of our South Australian contingent in the ‘Red Centre’ this weekend
