IT IS with great pleasure that we, the Gippsland Regions, announce that we will now be known as the 2017 Airoh Helmet Gippsland Motocross Championship.
Not only do we have the generous support of Airoh Helmet, but to add to this exciting news, FIVE Gloves are also coming on board with contingency money for the Senior riders during Sunday’s racing.
There will be Airoh Helmet giveaways at every round including lots of prize giveaways, great trophies for Junior riders at each round and Senior prize money at the end of the year.
Mark Ross, Gippsland Region Panel Chairperson, commented: “This is going to be a big year for the Gippsland Regions as we are taking it to a new level.
We are proud to work with and along side some amazing, generous sponsors and fantastic hard working volunteers. The Clubs also put in a tremendous amount of effort keeping their facilities up to standard and provide great venues,” Mark said,
“Having prize money at the end of the year definitely is a draw card and to now have contingency money at each Senior round is an added bonus for our riders and I have to say we take great pride in giving some pretty big trophies at the end of the year too,” Mark added.
The Gippsland Regions are renowned for their professional events and for giving back to their riders, not only with all the prizes, but also giving every rider the chance to race in a variety of classes.
The Demo class has been very popular and encouraging for our new young riders and will continue on into 2017 and the Senior riders will have the option to ride in both the Lites and Open class on the one bike as per the soon to be released Supp Regs.
Withvisuals are coming on board to be the Official Gippsland Region Photographer also offering photos to all the riders.
