VMX MAGAZINE CLASSIC DIRT #17 NEWS

The team returned to Three Pines MX Park after the ANZAC public holiday for another working bee. Due to the feedback received about our event in 2023, we took steps early in making the relevant improvements.

The property owner John and neighbour Mick have been going gangbusters on the additions to the vinduro loop! The heavy machinery was brought in to clear a whole new section at the bottom of the property. The new part of the loop will follow part of the Richmond River and it will bring a whole new element to the vinduro course. They have also partly completed a new bridge, which will be ready for August. This whole new section will be in addition to the loop that was used last year!

As for the MX tracks, the Motul Pre '95 MX track and Pre' 95 Twinshock track have both been lengthened slightly and Mick is busy ripping and smoothing out both tracks. So it is all systems go for everyone to have an even better riding experience for VMX Magazine Classic Dirt 17.

AUSTRALIA SECOND AT 2023 ISDE WOMEN'S WORLD TROPHY

Motorcycling Australia press release:

After a brutal week of competition, Team Australia – Jess Gardiner, Tayla Jones and Danielle McDonald – has finished second in the Women's World Trophy at the 2023 International Six Days Enduro (ISDE) in Argentina, which ran from November 6-11.

Held in searing heat and with a high rate of attrition – as well as an insatiable appetite for cold water and ice – the MXstore-backed Aussies kept America in their sights until the halfway mark before ISDE stalwart Jones (Husqvarna) was cruelly forced out of proceedings after dislocating her right shoulder in a crash late on day three.

The subsequent maximum time penalties accrued by Jones on the final three days, along with America maintaining its full roster, saw Australia lose contact and then fall into the sights of the FIM Latin America team.

However, with Latin America also losing a rider at the same time as 16-year-old rookie sensation McDonald (Yamaha) really started to hit her straps – easily winning day five and then pushing American firebrand Brandy Richards (KTM) all the way in a pulsating final motocross test – Australia easily held onto second position.

After six days of competition, Australia was nearly seven hours behind America – Richards joined by Korie Steele (KTM) and Rachel Gutish (GasGas) – with Latin America a further four hours behind.

United States fend off Italy for narrow victory on day four of 6DAYS® - FIM ISDE 2023 It was close at the top of the FIM World Trophy competition on day four of the FIM International Six Day’s Enduro (ISDE), with the United States claiming a hard-fought victory over Italy. Battling all day, the United States beat the Italians by just four seconds for the win.
