The South Burnett Junior Motorcycle Club is opening its doors on Sunday (March 25) for a special come’n’try motocross day.<\/p>\n

The day, which is being run in conjunction with Motorcycling Queensland – will be an opportunity to try motorcycling in a safe and controlled environment.<\/p>\n

South Burnett Junior Motorcycle Club offers competitors the chance to tackle jumps, whoops and berms at speed.<\/p>\n

Riders will be able to come and try their skills at Edenvale Raceway, located on Edenvale South Road, Kingaroy (at the back of the airport) with sign-on from 8:00am and riding from 9:00am.<\/p>\n

Motorcycling Queensland will cover the cost of licences for the day for riders aged under 16.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The club is just asking for a discounted fee from any new seniors that come for the come and try day,” a club spokesman said.<\/p>\n

“Seniors will be able to ride at members’ prices instead of non member prices so $25 will cover you to ride for the day.”<\/p>\n

“Any participant heading to the come’n’try will be eligible to claim a free three-month Recreational Motorcycling Australia Licence, just for participating.<\/p>\n

“This licence insures riders for participating in the sport, offering them more access to motorcycle venues, events and resources.<\/p>\n

“The come’n’try licence is only available to those (people) who have never held any type of Motorcycling Australia licence previously.”<\/p>\n

The event is being held in conjunction with the club’s normal ride day. There will also be a canteen available with some hamburgers, cold drinks and treats.<\/p>\n

Bring your own bike, boots, helmet, gloves, long pants and a long-sleeved shirt.<\/p>\n
