that a large number of entries have been received this year, with 16 international competitors signed up, arriving from the United States of America, Great Britain and Australia. It is the largest number of international entries seen in New Zealand since the Marlboro Series days in the 1970s and class entries for this year’ s series are filling up fast.“ It’ s fantastic also to have this continued support from Suzuki New Zealand,” Willacy said.“ The inclusive nature of the international series class rules allow club riders to compete alongside seasoned campaigners and these events are a launching pad for many of our upand-coming competitors,” said Willacy.
“ The various bike classes that are offered by this series cater for all motorcycle owners out there and we know this leads to the high participation numbers that we see in the Suzuki International Series each year. That’ s what we’ re all about, offering something for everyone.” For more than half a century the barriers have been put up for this world-renowned motorcycle“ street fight”, with FIM-approved spectator safety fencing laid out along the gutters of Whanganui’ s public streets. Early bird tickets are available until the end of November. For more details, interested parties should follow the link on the www. cemeterycircuit. co. nz web site.
