Prestige Display :
Apart from the prize money well exceeding R100 000, class winners may use the event logo as prestige rights on their sticker kits or gear as being the Dirt-Bike Classic class winner for 2022 until the next event in 2023. MSA MX Commission shall issue the rights to bear the insignia to class winners.
The previous MSA email referring to the FIM MXGP Academy training will start the Monday following this event at the same venue. This means that the FIM MXGP Academy trainers will be at the event to closely watch our riders and talent.
This is a South African event that is designed to bring the riders and families together to enjoy an entire weekend of dirt bike racing where camping will be available and a host of activities and shows during the entire weekend apart from racing MX. Off-road, Cross Country, VMX and Enduro riders are welcome. Gates unlimited.
There is a lot more to convey, but for now every rider with a bike needs to save the date and plan ahead. An added bonus, this event will be 4 weeks before the MSA MX National Round 6 at Chestnut which is just down the road from Legends MX Park.
We hope that you are as excited as we are.
