The Motorcycling Queensland subcommittee, organisers of this year’s Sherco Motorcycles 2010 Australian Moto-Trials Championships, are pleased to announce the launch of a dedicated website for this year’s event:
http://www.ma.org.au/
The site will be a ‘one-stop-shop’ for competitors, spectators, media, event organisers and any other person interested in the Championship.
Head of the Organising Committee for the 2010 Moto-Trials Championship, Robert Eyres, was thrilled with the new site and what it will mean for the event.
“We are extremely fortunate to have been able to tap into the expertise of staff from Motorcycling Queensland and Motorcycling Australia to bring this site to life,” Eyres said.
“It’s a fantastic way to keep everyone - from competitors and spectators, to sponsors, media and the general public up-to-date with what’s happening with this year’s event.”
And what a fantastic event it will be! With three separate Moto-Trials events set to take place across what is being referred to as ‘Queensland Trials Week’.
The first event is the ‘big one’ - the Sherco Motorcycles 2010 Australian Moto-Trials Championships, being held at Thunderbird Park on Queensland’s beautiful Gold Coast hinterland on the weekend of 21-22 August.
Queensland riders such as Boyd Willcocks (Open Solo class), brothers, Tom and James Wager (Junior class) and Paul Moore (Veterans class) will be looking to keep as many of the National Championships titles as possible in the Sunshine State.
Riders interested in nominating to compete at this truly unique venue, who haven’t entered should head to http://www.ma.org.au/
Then on Wednesday 25 August the Western Districts Moto-Trials Club will be hosting a ‘Gate Trial’ at Rob Wager’s Esk property (approximately two hours West of Brisbane).
A Gate Trial is a unique style of Trials event where all grades can compete against each other in the same sections.
The idea is to score as many points as possible by riding through pairs of arrows that define a ‘Gate’.
The rider decides their own line, which ultimately dictates the number of points they score.
The week culminates with the Queensland Indoor Trials event, which will be held at the Carrara Sports Complex, a 20 minutes drive from the Gold Coast.
This two day event carries Queensland Championship status and will be held on 28-29 August.
As more information comes to hand regarding all of these events it will be posted on http://www.ma.org.au/
