These events allow every day motorcycle lovers to enjoy the thrill of riding professional motorbike tracks in a safe, controlled family friendly environment.
Free from the cost of competition licensing, riders of any ability and level of experience are invited to get involved!
The goal is to attract riders from outside of the motorcycle sport to the premium Motocross and Enduro track venues across the state.
Ride Parks Australia ride days bring new faces to this much-loved sport, supporting local clubs and communities while forming a community atmosphere. These events will also encourage new riders to become interested in motorcycle sport instead of riding illegally in the bush.
