Motul MX Nationals press release:

This weekend Green Park in Conondale will roar back to life when the venue hosts Round 3 of the Motul MX Nationals, and this year the Sunshine Coast Motorcycle Club alongside Williams Event Management have worked harder than ever to ensure the event’s success.

The picturesque motocross track which sits amongst the rolling hills in Queensland has been prepped and readied for this weekend’s third instalment of the Motul MX Nationals, with more than 100 riders set to take to the track this Sunday May 7.

With Australia’s best headed for the venue, President of the Sunshine Coast Motorcycle Club Steve Harrison shared that plenty of hard work has gone into the preparation of one of the biggest events of the venue’s calendar.

“The Sunshine Coast Motorcycle Club has been very busy over the last few months to groom and prepare the iconic Green Park track at Conondale in preparation for the MX Nationals,” Harrison shared.

“Conondale is known to many of the riders as one of the premier outdoor natural terrain tracks of Australia, and with recent rain it has really brought out the green at Green Park.

“We will have three grandstands to view from, a bar, and food available for fans, plus with big hills, fast wide open straights, and of course the infamous Drunks Hill, it will all make for a great days racing.”

Motul MX Nationals Series Promoter Kevin Williams also said that after two successful rounds of the championship so far this season, that he too is predicting that Conondale will be impressive.

“We have just come off the back of two fantastic rounds of the championship in New South Wales and Victoria so we are very excited to be heading to Conondale in Queensland this weekend,” Williams shared.

“Conondale is a track which is truly unique – when you drive into the venue you’re welcomed by a motocross circuit which sits in between lush rolling hills, and for fans it really is one of the most picturesque of all of the tracks we visit.

“This weekend we have three championship classes, the Thor MX1, Motul MX2 and Pirelli MXD categories racing as well as the 125cc Gold Cup support class which is sure to entertain the fans.

“Judging by our first two outings this championship is just getting started, so spectators can expect riders to be hanging it all out this weekend and putting on a real show for those who are trackside.”
