Tauranga Motorcycle Club president Ben
Townley said he was excited about his club
hosting the event in 2021.
“Our club has been running events at our
new venue – Tech Park (just off State Highway
36, halfway between Tauranga and Rotorua) –
for about five seasons now and we are really
well established there,” said Townley.
“MNZ gave us the opportunity to host the
event on Waitangi Weekend (February 5-7)
and we accepted that.
“That time of the year it will create a good
atmosphere for camping at the venue and
stable weather is expected, along with long
daylight hours.”
But, for those who can’t wait until early
next year for their motocross fix, there is
the rescheduled North Island and Secondary
Schools MX Nationals, now set for Taupo on
Saturday, August 29 and the South Island
Secondary School MX National are rescheduled
for October 3.
Another popular event on the national
calendar, the New Zealand Mini MX Nationals,
have been rescheduled for October 31 and
November 1, 2020, and with a new host club.
“It had originally been set for hosting by the
Central Otago Motorcycle Club, but they have
indicated they’d prefer now to be allocated
the 2021 hosting rights and so the North
Harbour Mini Motocross Club will instead
stage the 2020 event,” said Broad, “We are
looking to have dates sorted and out for
that by the end of August.”
