PRESS RELEASE :-MOTOCROSS 2023 – GETTING BIGGER & BETTER EACH YEAR!

December 20, 2022 Filed Under: Motocross, News, SA Women in Motorcycling, SAMX Championship

The 2023 Motocross season is going to be another huge year, to say the least, especially as many of the Clubs are yet to put in their Club dates – due in part to waiting for the calendar to be released – and so those clubs can start their planning – here is the 2023 calendar – as it stands on December 20 2022.

As you can see below, the options to smash berms in 2023 is going to be huge, with the Sports Manager still putting together the 2023 SAMX Championship, building on the brilliant numbers that entered the 2022 Championship. With this in mind, there is still a round to be finalised, but the 4 weekend dates have been set to put in the diary.

Stay tuned early in 2023 for the release of the formats for, and a huge and exciting announcement (press release) regarding the 2023 Championships. This announcement is still in the finalising stage, but rest assured, it is pretty exciting for the future of the Championship going forward!

Please also keep in mind that there will be no round in July in 2023 – due to the AJMX being held in the July School Holidays at Alice Springs – seems like a great sport for the motocross side of Team SA to spend the holidays really!

The Tea Tree Gully MCC are also gearing up for a huge 2023, with not only their Club rounds set, but also, they are excited to be hosting the 2023 SA Historic Scramble Championships (SA-VMX) in September, so time to dust the old machines off as TTG will put on a huge show.

Meanwhile, over in the ‘wild, wild west’, the series that compliments the SAMX Championship so well year after year, the EP Series (Eyre Peninsula) will once again be run, kicking off the year for a lot of riders in Port Lincoln, before heading to Ceduna and Whyalla, before the finale in Kimba in June.

Keep an eye out also for 2 special events – as always, the annual Easter trek to Port Pirie for the, now, iconic King of the Gulf meeting, which will also feature the prince and Classic King of the Gulfs, as well as the SA Women’s Cup for motocross over the weekend.

Speaking of women, South Coast are very excited to be holding the first ever ‘female only’ Ladies Race Day, at Monarto on March 5 – keep an eye out on the South Coast socials for all the details on that one!

RELIABILITY TRIALS – ‘A HARD DAYS NIGHT’ ONCE AGAIN IN 2023!

December 19, 2022 Filed Under: News, Reliability, SA Women in Motorcycling

The 2023 South Australian Reliability Trials Championship (SART) will once again give riders 6 great events of varying length, terrain and riding conditions, with 3 rounds to be held each side of, arguably, South Australia’s most famous motorcycle event, The 24 Hour Trial, with 2023 being the 99th Anniversary of this iconic event.

As has become traditional in recent years, the Championship will be opened by the Gawler Club, running their Philip Haydon Reliability Trial out of Marrabel in 2023, which will then be followed by the Keyneton MCC’s Mike Connors event, once again running out of the Keyneton Oval, with both of these events to be around 6 hours in duration, with round 1 to be a day/night event and round 2 to be an all daylight event.

Round 3 will see the annual trek to the mid north town of Robertstown, for the Lew Job 2 Day, being run by the Velocette MCC. With 6 hours each day, Saturday being day/night and Sunday daylight only, this event also features a couple of highlights for most riders – the annual blast up Springhut Creek, and, the after ride mutton & gravy rolls served at Robertstown Oval (seriously worth the drive to ‘Robbie’ on their own)!

The Championship will then take a break while everyone gears up for the ‘24’, starting from the Eudunda Oval in 2023, with this iconic event the highlight of the year, and not only for the

riders, as many of the affiliated clubs will man the control points around the course, making for a great social weekend for these clubs.

The Hardi 2023 24 Hour Trial Committee Chairman, Shane Diener shared his thoughts on the 2023 event, and the run into the 100th Anniversary in 2024, “The last two Hardi 24 Hour Trial events have both been extremely successful and enjoyable, with great tracks, atmosphere and controls throughout the course.

With the added emphasis of leading into the 100th Year Anniversary of the Hardi 24 Hour Trial in 2024, this is the ideal opportunity to practice for what will be, the historic 2024 Hardi 24 Hour Trial.”

After everyone recovers from the 24 Hour, the scrub and sand of the Mallala district awaits, as the SART Championship will then kick back into gear with the day/night Gil Harris Trial, run by the centurion club, the Levis MCC, before heading to Palmer and Clare of the season ending daylight events run by the SAPMAC & Clare MCC’s – with all 3 of these events likely to be around 6 hours in duration.

So, there it is – a 6 round Championship, made up of;

  • 3 x all daylight events of approximately 6 hours in duration
  • 2 x day/night events of approximately 6 hours in duration
  • 1 x day/night event of events of approximately 12 hours in duration over 2 days                                                              Kye Haydon  (Above)

Added right in the middle – SA’s most iconic event, the 24 Hour Trial of approximately 4 laps of 200km, – and right smack, bang in the middle of winter – what more could you ask for?

PRESS RELEASE :- SA SPEEDWAY 2022/23 – PART 2, THE 2023 PART!

December 19, 2022 Filed Under: News, SA Women in Motorcycling, Speedway

With the speedway season taking in summer, a number of events have now been run this year – BUT 2023 – or the second half of the season looks to be more than huge – with a number of National and International events on offer – as well as a ‘special event’ no one will want to miss!

 

No sooner than 2023 opening and there is an Australian Championship series kicking off at Gillman – with round 1 of the 2023 Australian Senior Solo Championships, which will feature a couple of World Champions, as well as the current Australian Champion, Max Fricke – what a way to start the year!

Just looking at the calendar below, there are still SA Championships for juniors and seniors, on 2 and 3 wheels, as well as many special events that both, Sidewinders and the Speedway Riders Association (Gillman Speedway Stadium) run each season, but it’s probably the event on Saturday March 11 that will require the ‘Full House’ sign to go up at Gillman!

This night will see the celebration of 100 years of speedway in Australia with the special running of the ‘Sidecar Gold Cup’, and it is a fair bet that there will also be a line up of teams wanting to enter this meeting, let alone get through the gate to watch the action! Best put this on the calendar and try and book your spot on the hill!

Guaranteed also that the Gillman canteen will be in top gear that night – and being one of the best canteens at any venue from any discipline of motorcycle sport, they will be all out to live up to their well deserved hype – get around them!

Other highlights will be the ‘double header’ weekends of; The Bob White Cup for junior & senior sidecars at Gillman, followed the next day by the SA Junior Sidecar Championships at Sidewinders, and then followed in March with the Sidewinders back-to-back Roy Bitmead Memorial and, the always popular, ‘Blast from the Past’ meetings.

Says Speedway Sports Manager, Adam Possingham, “With such an awesome start to our season, we look forward to 2023 finishing off a big season of speedway here in SA. With our senior and junior clubs working together, the season is looking busy with FIM and Australian Championship events – and the big names will be in town….…”

One other huge bonus so far this season has been the number of new juniors coming into the sport, with the number of entries for events down Sidewinders way being the highest they have had for several years, so stay tuned for a number of extra coaching days to be added to the calendar, specifically for the exciting future of the sport here in SA!

 

If you haven’t been down to Sidewinders as yet, it is a venue that in many ways is the envy of the other states, as it is the only purpose built junior speedway venue in Australia. It continues to get rave reviews from all of the interstate visitors that regularly travel here to go sideways, and these reviews, they are not only about the well prepared track, but also the venue facilities and the warm welcome all receive when they arrive!

PRESS RELEASE :- DIRT TRACK IN SA – LOOKING FOR A RESURGANCE IN 2023!

December 19, 2022 Filed Under: Dirt Track, News, SA Women in Motorcycling

After a number of years with no Championship, mainly due to COVID and the issues that has caused to the sport in general, the Mud N Tars MCC are looking to 2023 as the time for a resurgence in the discipline and are already looking to June and the 2023 South Australian Dirt Track Championships, being held at their brilliant Day Road venue.

Says Mud N Tars MCC President Wade Sweet, “Our Club has already started planning for the 2023 SA Championships to be one of the biggest and best we have yet run, and we are really putting an emphasis on getting a large entry, especially as this will be the first Championships to be held since 2019.

We are very proud of our Day Road facility and the amount of effort from Club members to make it what it is, and we want to see it being used more often, so we look forward to seeing everyone in Victor in June!”

Stay tuned for more information to come out in early 2023 regarding the SA Championships, but Wade did state that their excellent canteen will be open to fully cater the Championships, and that to warm up for the Championships, the Club will be running a number of RPA days so people can get familiar with the venue.
