Classic MX WA presents the Peter Melton Memorial Classic at Fern Hill Farm Manjimup 28th October 2018.
Peter Melton was well known in the motocross community having won four Australian Supercross titles, three National Motocross titles and 17 Queensland Motocross and Supercross titles. Peter passed away in 2017 doing what he loved at Willow Bank Raceway.
A memorial event is being held over the weekend 27th-28th of October at Fern Hill Farm Manjimup, there will be a live band and bonfire on the night of the 27th followed by a ride event on the 28th on the Fern Hill Farm track, so come along, set up camp, listen to the band Saturday and have a ride on the Sunday. There will be a food van on site Saturday and Sunday with steak sandwiches, coffee etc available.
This will be a non-competitive event and there will be the usual classes of Pre '78, Pre '85, Pre '90 and Pre '98 along with veterans on modern bikes (classes subject to change depending on numbers of participants). It would be good to see a turnout of evo class/twin shock bikes as well as women riders, if we get enough numbers we will put a class on especially for either. Juniors are welcome; a skills and ride session will be put on for little wheels and less skilled riders on the Sunday (book and pay at the venue on the day). More advanced juniors (big wheels) will be able to ride on the senior track (book using the link below).
Please note there will be no riding on the track allowed on the Saturday, due to track prep.
