The Super Motard demonstration in conjunction with the “Fireworks Spectacular” at Manfeild (postponed from last week) will be held this coming Wednesday 13th November.
Riders & helpers please enter through the Kawa Kawa Road gate drive past the car clubrooms, and the Motard pits will be on “Coke” corner. Please be ready to practice at about 5pm. There will about 3 races each for quads & bikes, and we’ll have an “easy” ramp off the wall for those who don’t want the jump. Races will start at about 6.45pm & then between other “happenings” until about 8 pm. As darkness falls, the fireworks go up.
