Eight-time Australian motocross and supercross champion Jay Marmont will conduct a custom coaching program at selected Champion’s Ride Days Moto X events in 2015, with the first event scheduled for Oakdale in New South Wales on 14 March.

Marmont, who has remained affiliated with Honda after retiring at the close of last season, will be available for tuition at multiple events this year, working closely with riders who take out the option of coaching for $150 on top of the ride day entry fee of $75.

“I’m excited to be involved with Champion’s Ride Days and look forward to the first event I’ll be at,” Marmont explained. “It’s a good opportunity for riders to go there and ride a fully-prepared track, then if you want the coaching by me that’s available as well.

“For where I’m at, at the moment, I’m still working with Penrite Honda Racing and I’m also doing a few one-on-ones here and there, but I haven’t done any major coaching events as yet, so this is an ideal platform to be a part of with Champion’s.

“Oakdale was a place where I was able to kick-off my career and from what I hear they are doing an awesome job in preparing the track. They have been working hard and the track stays awesome all day, so we’ll definitely be able to work with a lot of riders and help to improve their skills for the future.”

Champion’s Ride Days Moto X feature fully-prepared circuits specific for the events, graded sessions, flag marshalling, paramedical support and on-track photography – building upon Champion’s Ride Days experience in road bike track days for over 15 years. A fleet of Honda hire bikes will be available for hire this year, as well as gear and coaching at select events.

Marmont is also scheduled to appear at further events nationally, to be confirmed in the following weeks. Further information and a full schedule of Champion’s Ride Days Moto X events can be found here.
