Motorbikes will join the East Coast Bullbars Australian Rally Championship in May at this year’s Scouts Rally SA in a development that firms the event as a South Australian motorsport festival.
Motorcycling South Australia will run a technical event known as the “Juventus Forest Sprint” on the last day of Scouts Rally SA, as the first round of the Yamaha SA Offroad Motorcycle Series. SA’s best enduro riders will punt their machines around unmade tracks. They will be trying to traverse fast approaching obstacles, natural jumps, big logs and steep hills.
This will provide enthusiastic spectators with another form of motorsport to enjoy as they take in the family friendly atmosphere of the Mount Crawford spectator area at Forties Road, which is free to enter.
Gerry Jongebloed, Clerk of Course, Juventus Forest Sprint, said “The bikes have been associated with the cars previously and add another dimension for the spectator to enjoy. We look forward to being involved in this motorsport festival in May.”
Ivar Stanelis, Clerk of Course, Scouts Rally SA, said “The Juventus Forest Sprint is another sign of how spectator friendly the 2013 event will be. There will be nonstop motorsport action in Mt Crawford on Sunday 26 May, providing excitement for spectators and crews alike.”
