The Yamaha Australian Off-Road Championship (AORC) has announced the location of the final rounds of the 2019 championship in Penshurst, Victoria (VIC) will be relocated.
Due to local shire council and agricultural restrictions on the location in Penshurst, the final two rounds of the 2019 AORC season will be relocated to Hedley, VIC from 14-15 September 2019.
To ensure the least amount of disruption to riders and teams alike, the competition has been amended to ensure we continue successfully incorporating the state of VIC into the Championship, whilst also making a conscious effort to minimize the necessary distance to travel.
The original host club, Geelong Motocross Club will now co-host Rounds 10 & 11 with the Corner Inlet Motorcycle Club, at a familiar location to many members of the AORC paddock from 2018. Like Rounds 3 & 4 back during the 2018 AORC season, Hedley will present competitors with lush conditions, marking the perfect send off to a strong and fiery Championship season.
To close off the 2019 racing season, Hedley will feature a Cross Country racing format for Round 10, followed by Sprints for Round 11. Further information on the final rounds and accommodation can be found here.
Entries will open shortly for Rounds 10 & 11, so keep your eyes peeled for further updates.
AORC appreciates your patience and understanding in this matter and we look forward to seeing you at the newly relocated Rounds 10 & 11 on 14-15 September 2019.
