Ride Parks Australia Ride Days (RPDs) are MA-approved non-competitive and fun ride days aimed toward the general riding public. This program has also been designed to appeal to current MA members who wish to enjoy their favourite clubs and venues that choose to be part of RPA outside of competitive riding.
The RPD program has been created for social and recreational riding only and provide a fantastic opportunity for the greater community and non-MA members to access their local tracks which provide a safe, family friendly environment to ride at an affordable cost. They are a great opportunity for new members to ride non-competitively.
The RPD entry fee is structured to ensure accessing local tracks is extremely affordable for riders and families. MA annual Licence holders will pay the same riding fees as non-MA members but benefit from the cover provided under the MA Personal Accident (PA) scheme with their annual license.
MA CEO, Peter Doyle, said he was excited to see this new initiative expanded nationally into the market and engage those riders and families who just want to have fun and enjoy recreational riding. “Ride Parks Australia is all about giving the social rider access to quality local facilities at an affordable price,” explained Doyle. “RPA is not based around the sporting side of the business and the restrictive rules and regulations that come with competition. These ride days are for families, friends and kids to enjoy social riding at venues that can cater for all levels of riders.”
