SAMX Championship

EAGLE TRAILERS, CAMPERS & CARAVANS 2022 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS, presented by AMX SUPERSTORES – ROUND 1 ENTRIES OPEN 6.00AM WEDNESDAY 30TH MARCH – THAT’S TOMORROW MORNING FOLKS!!

EAGLE TRAILERS, CAMPERS & CARAVANS 2022 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS, presented by AMX SUPERSTORES – ROUND 1 ENTRIES OPEN 6.00AM WEDNESDAY 30TH MARCH – THAT’S TOMORROW MORNING FOLKS!!

Entries open through Ridernet for round 1 of the Eagle Trailers, Campers & Caravans 2022 South Australian Motocross Championships, presented by AMX Superstores – tomorrow morning at 6.00am – with round 1 to be held at the Gillman Motocross Track, and will be hosted by the Motocross Riders Association.

For the 2nd year running, Motorcycling SA and the SAMX Committee is proud to announce that Eagle Trailers, Campers & Caravans are on board as the major partner, and will be joined in the naming of the event by AMX Superstores, and again, for the second straight year.

Also exciting is the Girls & Women’s Classes once again enjoying the support of Titanium Security Australia (juniors) and Butler’s Mechanical Services (senior), and we thanks them for their continued support of the girls and women in motocross  – and if the Women’s Ride Days at South Coast and MRA are anything to go by, there may well be record numbers across the three (3) classes in 2022 – which would be awesome!

A full range of seven (7) senior and nine (9) junior Championship classes will be on offer, along with the 50cc 4-U9 Non Comp Class for the newbies to the sport, making for 17 classes of competition over the 2 days of racing at each of the 4 rounds of the 2022 Championship.

THE 2022 CHAMPIONSHIP

2022 is certainly looking to be a huge year with numbers on the up across all events, and disciplines, so far, with most clubs seeing more and more new riders, as well as some returning after a few years – seems coming out of COVID lockdowns everyone is keen to throw a leg over and have a ride – which is awesome for the 2022 Championship!

What is also exciting is the number of young riders who are coming out of juniors and will be looking to challenge the established senior riders, and word is that there are a few senior riders already looking over their shoulders at the coming talent – Sunday’s racing could be top notch in 2022 for sure!

In the juniors, there are more than a few names across most classes that are being spoken of as possible podium place-getters in 2022, with round 1 certainly offering up more questions and unknowns than answers if pre-season ride days are anything to go by.

With that said, the 4 clubs that will be hosting the rounds in 2022 are certainly going to be in for some great action at their venues, and they are venues that are going to offer something different for each round, with the 4 rounds of the 2022 Championship being;

Round Date Club Address
1 April 23 & 24 Motocross Riders Association 65 Wilkins Rd, Gillman
2 May 21 & 22 Riverland Junior Motorcycle Club 19695 Sturt Hwy, Old Calperum SA 5341
3 July 16 & 17 Port Pirie Motorcycle Club Port Broughton Road, Port Pirie SA 5540
4 August 27 & 28 Keith & Districts Motorcycle Club Andy Caldecott Park, Charles Well Rd, Keith

It is exciting for this year’s Championship to be returning to Port Pirie for round 3, the first time in a few years the Championship has headed to Pirie, with the club doing many improvements to the venue in anticipation, and to all those who want to get some laps in beforehand, head up at Easter for their iconic Easter ‘King of the Gulf’ classic – with entries open as you read this!

Entries are also open for round 1 of the MRA Club Series that is being run this weekend – for all those who want to cut some laps of the round 1 venue – before round 1 – to see what MRA are going to have on offer!

2022 MOTOCROSS DATES – UPDATED – PRINT IT OFF AND PUT IT ON THE SHED FRIDGE DOOR!

New events are highlighted in yellow – current as of 24/01/2022.

ATTENTION ALL JUNIOR RIDERS INDEED – MRA STARTS 2022 OFF WITH A BANG!

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

ATTENTION ALL JUNIOR RIDERS INDEED – MRA STARTS 2022 OFF WITH A BANG!
The Motocross Riders Association are looking forward to a bigger and better year and for those who missed our announcement at their AGM, they have now launched their exciting new MRA Junior Development Program…
As part of their 2022 Club Membership, junior members have been invited to participate in our Junior Development program “MRA Rev Rookies“.
• Subsidised Coaching Sessions – All MRA junior club members have been invited to attend their multiple junior coaching days with Shane Metcalfe, with the costs for these days subsidised by the Club at a heavily discounted rate!! 
• AND  included is Free Merchandise for each participant
• And last but certainly not least, MRA are committed to supporting our riders entering the 2022 AJMX Australian Championships to be held in September/October – date TBA. This includes financial support and training opportunities leading up to the event!
Well, day 1 was run on January 16th to rave reviews, from the MRA Club, the coaching crew and riders and parents alike!
.

Said Shane Metcalfe about the day, “As the main coach for the day and the club we put together a new kind of program which is very exciting, what the club is doing at the moment for its members and the sport is next to none, leading the way. To offer cheaper coaching days, putting merchandise together for participants, as well as putting aside days for this type of thing is unreal. For me we are trying something different also, each session will have a topic for the day, Sunday we went back to basics, the basics is very often overlooked by many but it is the most important part to making riders safer and better riders which is what we are aiming for here, help produce better riders, maybe not faster, but safer and more controlled.”

The 2nd date coming up is January 30th – for junior members aged over 12 years – and stay tuned for more dates to be announced throughout season 2022 – and a huge well done to all at MRA for making this happen in 2022.

2022 MOTOCROSS DATES – SO FAR – PRINT IT OFF AND PUT IT ON THE SHED FRIDGE DOOR!

January 10, 2022 Filed Under: Motocross, News, SA Women in Motorcycling, SAMX Championship

2022 MOTOCROSS DATES – SO FAR – PRINT IT OFF AND PUT IT ON THE SHED FRIDGE DOOR!

Huge thanks to all of the motocross clubs that were very pro-active in the lead up to the Christmas / New Year break in supplying us with their dates for 2022 – club and/or open dates!

As you can see below, there are already some 40 motocross events scheduled for 2022, with more to come – and happening now with Coaching Days and Come & Try Days coming up through January at MRA with their exciting new Rev Rookies Program (which is brilliant to see).

Any clubs that have not as yet scheduled their dates and forwarded them to MSA – feel free to send them in – projects@motorcyclingsa.org.au – and this calendar of dates will be updated and re-released – so the one on the fridge door can be replaced – and so everyone can keep up with, what is shaping up to be, a huge year of MX action in SA!

Get around it, start planning the year and support the clubs that are going above and beyond to give everyone a place to ride – and almost every weekend as well!

Says SA Motocross Sports Manager Clint Gow-Smith, “I am so excited for 2022 and the SAMX Community that we have coming together – and we will only get stronger together, so lets hit those tracks in 2022 and make it an unbelievably huge year for the sport in 2022 – GET KEEN & FIRE UP!

** For those who got in quick – the MRA Club Day scheduled for Sunday 27th Feb has been cancelled – the calendar has been changed to reflect this.

And don’t forget also – Make Volunteering your 2022 Resolution – every Club will need a hand at some point during the year, so give just one day this year – cook a BBQ, serve in the canteen, help at sign on, pick up a flag point, help prep the track the day before – all it does at the end of the day, is benefit you and your kids!

EAGLES TRAILERS, CAMPERS & CARAVANS 2022 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS AND 2022 EP SERIES VENUES RELEASED!

December 10, 2021 Filed Under: Motocross, News, SA Women in Motorcycling, SAMX Championship, State Championship

EAGLES TRAILERS, CAMPERS & CARAVANS 2022 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS AND 2022 EP SERIES VENUES RELEASED!

Motorcycling South Australia, along with the Motocross Sports Manager and the SA Motocross Panel are excited to announce the venues for the 2022 Eagles Trailers, Campers & Caravans 2022 South Australian Motocross Championships, which are also presented by AMX Superstores.

The 4 round Championship will start at Gillman at the end of April and finish at Andy Caldecott Park in Keith at the end of August, with round 2 to be held in the Riverland at Renmark, with round 3 heading, for the first time in many years, to Port Pirie, which is also home to the King of the Gulf meeting at Easter (for those who want to pre-ride the track!)

With the rounds now released, the program of events will follow early in 2022, but rest assured there will be some exciting changes coming to the formats, with the emphasis being put into giving ALL competitors great value for money, and an exciting series of Championship racing to decide who the 2022 South Australian Champions will be!

Yes, it is only a 4 round Championship – but – with June & early July swamped with major events like the Finke & Hattah Desert Races, it was almost impossible to schedule a round – but it does give our riders the chance to ride a National event and see how they go!

What can be teased here is this; multiple class entering will, not only be allowed, but will be encouraged across almost ALL classes – so just about every rider will be able to enter at least 2 classes in 2022 (where age and gradings allow) – and those who can’t will be racing for a bit longer in each race!

Has that whetted your appetite??

Well, wait until early 2022 to get ALL the info on an improving and evolving South Australian Championship in motocross! 

Also attached here are the dates and venues for the 2022 EP Series – the 14th Eyre Peninsula Motocross Series – ‘Wild West’ Motocross at its Best! 

Once again the EP Series will be a four round Series to decide the best in the west – with visits to Port Lincoln, Ceduna, Whyalla and Kimba – and with 3 of the rounds to be held BEFORE the opening round of the 2022 Eagles Trailers, Campers & Caravans 2022 South Australian Motocross Championships, presented by AMX Superstores, so there is ample chances to get some pre Championship racing in!

And with a planned possible return to the West in 2023 for a round of the SA Motocross Championships – this is an ideal chance to ride these tracks and get a feel for Eyre Peninsula dirt!

 

E-50 MACHINES IN THE 2022 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN JUNIOR MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS

December 8, 2021 Filed Under: Motocross, News, SAMX Championship

E-50 MACHINES IN THE 2022 SOUTH AUSTRALIAN JUNIOR MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIPS

In 2021 the SAMX Panel were granted the opportunity to include the E-50 machines in the South Australian Motocross Championships within the current 7-U9 50cc class for 5 rounds of the Championship.

On a detailed review of the series by the SAMX Panel it is the decision, with full support of MA, to re-align our Championship Supp Regs to reflect that of the National Bulletin Information which doesn’t include these machines for State and National Competition. 

With this decision,  Electric bikes will NOT be able to enter in ANY competitive class of the 2022 South Australian Motocross Championships.

(Bulletin #2002 16/12/2019)
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Vp9f27tsJH0PTLea8f9lWgYNjYvAzzkz

However, it is imperative that we continue to encourage these machines to be competing at Club and Interclub competition and certainly support the use of these machines at any Ride Parks Australia event and Ride Days to encourage the grassroots development of these machines in our industry.

Yours in Motocross
