The 2022 Yamaha Australian Off-Road Championship (AORC) calendar has been released in full, spanning 12 rounds over six weekends once again next season.

Rounds one and two will take place at a venue still to be confirmed in Queensland on 12-13 March, before travelling to Mackay for rounds three and four.

Halfway will be rounds five and six at Kyogle in New South Wales, followed by South Australia’s Kingston SE stop for rounds seven and eight, Nowra in NSW for rounds nine and 10, capped off by the finals at Wynyard in Tasmania between 8-9 October.

“The AORC management team have worked hard to ensure the championship can come roaring back into action for 2022,” said Motorcycling Australia (MA) CEO Peter Doyle. “We believe this well-rounded and diverse calendar offers sensational racing at venues riders have been to before as well as providing some new challenges.

“With strong backing from terrific event partners and championship sponsors, large turnouts expected and our host clubs ready to do make it all happen; we know riders can’t wait to get stuck into the full 2022 championship year.”
