Encouraging riding in a safe environment

Encouraging riding in a safe environment


Dirt bike rider fatalities on our roads are at the highest they have been in over 5 years. 


To assist with getting dirtbike riders off the streets and into a safe environment we have created the “Ride Safe” package with the collaboration of Ipswich Dirtbike hire, Willowbank MX park, and myself as a Motorcycling Australian Accredited coach. 


To promote this package and get the word out about safe riding in a safe environment, we have created a day event on the 26th of March at Willowbankmx that will be encouraged by local reality tv celebrities including Love Island Australias Ryan Reid & Aaron Waters. Pro Surfer Cooper Chapman, Former NRL player Chris Walker, Instagram model influencers with 10k plus followings, and many more.


On top of all of this, we are also organizing a fundraiser challenge for the day with a charity ride relay pledge challenge. The relay challenge will include 1-hr alternations of a team of riders to see who can get the most laps of WillowbankMX's front MX1 track. This pledge charity ride will be supported by Daniel Carruthers, Chris Walker & the 'Fund My Challenge' crew for a suitable charity called "Youth in search". (50-65cc riders will conduct a mini relay of 20 minutes on the junior stadium track). 


Raceline Performance will be attending with the team truck for our set up, with a heap of other entertainment including mini bike challenges, face painting, gladiator duals, chill zone, food vans, music, and more. 


Local police and all media invited to assist with the encouragement are appreciated.
