Overview
The Bendigo Motorcycle Club (BMCC) will host this event on Sunday 16 September at the Bagshot Motor Sports Complex. This venue is owned by the Bendigo Car Club, who will be providing catering on Sunday, and selling raffle tickets. We urge everyone to support them.
Standard vinduro guidelines apply (i.e. Pre 1985, headlight and tail light fitted, adequate silencing, bikes in safe working order, etc.). As usual, this is a non-competitive event.
The event and course
This vinduro will be held over a short course, approximately 5 – 7 km in length (TBC). Basically, somewhere between the 2012 HBBB and 2011 Ballan Sprint loops in length and layout. More details of the course will be published on the Vinduro Victoria website ASAP.
The event is for senior riders only, and there is no area set aside for junior riders. Minibikes and pitbikes must not be ridden anywhere at the venue, including the pit area.
Entry forms shall be lodged on Sunday morning (and possibly Saturday afternoon for campers). Entry fees are $40 (MA licence holder), and $60 (includes one day licence). A nominal one day BMCC membership fee may also apply (TBC).
Rider starting order will be decided on the day. Lap tallies will most likely be recorded via a punch-card system.
Directions
The Bagshot Motor Sports Complex is approximately 27.6 kms from the centre of Bendigo. Detailed directions will be available soon on the Vinduro Victoria website. It will also be signposted.
Camping
Riders are welcome to camp at the Bagshot Motor Sports Complex, and may arrive from Saturday afternoon onwards. There are good facilities, with basic toilets and showers, but no mains power.
No bikes are to be ridden at the venue on Saturday, and we ask that participants also refrain from riding on the surrounding roads. No dogs are permitted on site.
This is the first time that a vinduro has been held at this venue, and we ask that everyone behaves in a responsible manner, so that we get asked back again next year. Don’t leave a mess behind!
Spectators
This venue is ideal for spectators, with several good vantage points.
