All you people out
there with old pre 1985 bikes in your shed we have some good news
for you. Get back in touch with your past and drag out your
favourite dirt bikes and come and ride at our many ride days and
race meetings being held in 2008.
Heaven Vintage
Motocross caters for all levels of ability, with many classes of
racing including Pre 65, Pre 70, Pre 75, Pre 78, Evolution,
Four-stroke, and Pre 85.
Other classes include
juniors (12-16 yrs) and ladies classes.
Heaven has 180
members all over the state and we hold meetings at a variety of
tracks in NSW and events cover a range of riding types including
motocross and grass track events.
Many of these events
are run over 2 days allowing you to have a
practice/recreation ride day on the Saturday and a race day on the
Sunday to put your skills to the test.
So bring your
families along and enjoy a great weekend! On our practice days you
may also ride your modern bike but racing is only on the vintage
machines!
There are some social
ride days planned for the 2008 season as well so there is something
for everyone!
All of the
tracks used are old bike and old body friendly with point score
options for the die-hard racers.
Most venues cater for
families who like to camp, and many have good affordable
accommodation close by for those who like all the creature comforts.
There is a great social gathering in the evenings with plenty of
good yarns to be had.
The club supplies a
regular newsletter detailing upcoming events and detailed
information to keep members up to date about what is happening in
the club.
If you don’t ride you can still enjoy our events as there is usually a
great number of old bikes paraded and lined up for a show and shine.
It is also a great way to source out parts for your old bike in the
shed. Heaven members are only too happy to see more riders enjoying
their old bikes and are in the know about where to get what when it
comes to old bikes.
