EAGLE TRAILERS & CAMPERS 2019 SA MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS TO LAUNCH OUT THE GATE THIS WEEKEND AT RENMARK!

May 10, 2019 Filed Under: Motocross, News, SAMX Championship, State Championship

EAGLE TRAILERS & CAMPERS 2019 SA MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS TO LAUNCH OUT THE GATE THIS WEEKEND AT RENMARK!

After whetting the appetite with the EP Series and the King of the Gulf meetings, this weekend sees round 1 of the 2019 SA Motocross Championships, partnered again by the brilliant crew from Eagle Trailers & Campers, with support from Butler’s Mechanical Services and Titanium Security Arena.

As in 2018, the Riverland JMC is hosting round 1 at their Renmark venue, which is located on the Sturt Highway at Renmark (Be aware turning off the highway it is in a 110kmh zone, so please take care!).

Almost 230 entries have been received for the opening round, and looking through the entry list, it is very much the cream of the crop when it comes to motocross in South Australia, so heading to Renmark will be a great way to see some fantastic racing across all classes, junior and senior.

One rider to watch this weekend will be SA’s outstanding junior rider, Alex Larwood (pictured below), current double Australian Champion and recently selected Australian team member to the 2019 World Junior Motocross Championships to be held in Russia later this year.

Being a 2 day event, with juniors on Saturday and seniors on Sunday (as well as Junior 250cc), camping is permitted at the venue with showers available (with a small donation that can be paid at the canteen).

Speaking of the canteen – hot and cold food and drinks will be available all weekend, with some prime viewing spots for all.

Admission for spectators is also aimed at being family friendly;

Saturday;   Adults $5.00       Juniors $2.00

Sunday       Adults $10.00     Juniors $5.00

Gates open at 6.00am both days with practice starting from 8.00am

Event programmes also available – get yours to follow the action!

Not a bad view of the great venue that opens the 2019 SA Motocross Championships, and just a few of the super talented female MX stars SA boasts at the moment (from left) Aimee Butler, Steph Cutler, Tarja Morris & Emma Haylock, along with Emma’s dad, Ian.

The junior action on Saturday will be full on, and worth getting to Renmark to watch the outstanding future of the sport here in SA!

SA’S BEST TO TAKE THE TEST AT MONARTO FOR THIS WEEKEND’S MX NATIONALS ROUND

May 2, 2019 Filed Under: Motocross, News, SAMX Championship

SA’S BEST TO TAKE THE TEST AT MONARTO FOR THIS WEEKEND’S MX NATIONALS ROUND

10 of South Australia’s best motocross riders will take on the best from around the country this weekend at Monarto for rounds 4 & 5 of the 2019 Pirelli MX Nationals, which also features rounds 1 & 2 of the YMF Women’s Championship.

The charge will be led in the Thor MX1 450 Class by factory Yamaha rider, Kirk Gibbs, who is now Queensland based and riding for the CDR Yamaha Monster Energy Team, with the current MX des Nations team rider looking to do well in front of his home crowd and family & friends.

At the moment Kirk is 3rd in the standings, only 7 points off of Haydon Mellross in the Championship lead and 5 points behind Luke Clout on the middle step of the podium, so it’s probably a guarantee that the racing is going to be full on this weekend!

Also looking to do well in the premier class of Australian MX will be the former international rider (AMA America), and one of SA’s all-time greats, Brett Metcalfe, who will be riding for the  Penrite Factory Honda Racing Team, along with one of SA’s premier coaches in Daniel Banks (Banks MX Coaching powered by KTM), along with 2018 King of the Gulf Mitch Norris (Hoey Suspension) and Izak Maule (Honda, SPMX, Pirelli, Fly Racing, SK Designs, M2R Helmets, Scott).

In the Pirelli MX2 Class, Jordan Waters (OatesMX, Yamaha, Thor, Spy, Maxima) will be the lone South Aussie in a hot class being led at the moment by the reigning Champion, Wilson Todd, with Jay Wilson & Aaron tanti already looking to be, perhaps, fighting over 2nd in the Championship!

In the Motul MXD Under 19’s Class, and like Jordan, Keith’s Jaxon Raynor (Keith Sand & Metal, Bridgeland Motorcycles, Performance Moto, Oakley) will be flying the SA flag on his own as he takes on the cream of Australia’s under 19 motocross stars!

The class is being led by Regan Duffy who has a slight 5 point lead over Rhys Budd with Maximus Purvis within striking distance in 3rd.

Kicking off this weekend will also be the YMF Australian Women’s Championship, with the SA trio of, newly crowned SA Women’s Cup Champion, Steph Cutler (Northern Motorcycles, SK Designs, BMS Racing), 2018 SA#1 Amy Bartch (Hoey Racing, Stratco, NOW Construction & Property Maintenance) and Charlotte Berrill (Bridgeland Motorcycles, RapidMX, Flow Vision Company, Funnelweb Filters) leading the home town charge.

All will be chasing the girl they call ‘Mad Meg’, Meghan Rutledge (Kawasaki Australia, Fox, Hitachi Power Tools Australia), with all eyes on Rutledge as she looks to continue the form she has so far shown in 2019, which included the opening round of the Women’s World MX Championship.

About the venue & the weekend’s action;

GATES OPEN: 7.30am
RIDING STARTS AT: 8.00am

Murray Bridge has been on the MX Nationals Calendar for many years now and for good reason – It’s highly regarded as being one of the best circuits in Australia. The flowing turns and red sand allow riders to be very aggressive and carry lots of corner speed. The massive roller section at the back of the circuit is one of the major keys to the race proving to be very technical, it’s also a fan favourite.

This year is a double header so get excited; you’ll be able to have double the fun with double the action.  You will need to buy your tickets at the gate, but the prices won’t break the bank! So, get down trackside to witness the top riders in Australia.

1-Day Pass – $30.00 for Adults, $20.00 for kids (6-15 years), Family Pass is $70.00

2-Day Pass – $50.00 for Adults, $30.00 for Kids (6-15 years), Family Pass $100.00
