It’s time for some serious sand shifting this coming Sunday, October 15th as the Purbeck MXC, in conjunction with the Weymouth and Portland Lions Club host the annual AMCA Beach motocross event. Thousands of spectators will converge on Weymouth and line the Esplanade of this lovely Dorset coastal resort to watch the action unfold and it’s FREE! Being a charity event though, the Lions club will throughout the day be making bucket collections to accept any generous donations whilst you can also purchase special souvenir programmes with all proceeds going to the nominated local worthwhile causes.
Read MoreAfter six months of mud, sweat and gears, the destination of the 2023 AMCA British Motocross Championship titles have finally been decided. During the final round promoted by the Cheltenham Spa MXC and held on a Brookthorpe track that was super tacky and very raceable, there was to be hardly any major movements in the hunt for titles bar one very notable exception!!
Read MoreSo, this is it then, as the four moto’s due to be contested at Brookthorpe this weekend will ultimately decide the destination of the 2023 AMCA British Motocross Championship titles. And, with a maximum of 200 points still on offer, mathematically it’s all still to play for!
Read MoreWith quite a major contrast in weather conditions over the two days of the latest AMCA British Motocross Championship action held at Bromsberrow, it was to prove to be a stern test of a rider’s fitness levels and desire to succeed. On day one the entry was faced by a blue-sky scene with the mercury rapidly rising and creating energy sapping temperatures whilst day two although being cooler was then hit by a period of thundery rain which changed the dynamics of the track. Despite that inconsistent weather though, the racing throughout was red -hot with the organising Uley MXC doing a superb job in preparing a revamped circuit, so well done to them!
Read MoreIt’s the penultimate round of the 2023 AMCA British Motocross Championship this weekend with the Uley MXC hosting the action at a revamped Bromsberrow circuit. There’s a total of four moto’s spread over two day’s for the riders to dispute as they go in search of that final glory.

David Truelove, a founder member of the Rugby Pennant AMCA Club sadly passed away unexpectedly but peacefully on Sunday, 20th August with his family at his side.
Read MoreThe combination of a Long Lane circuit running in reverse direction mixed with a nice sprinkling of ‘Wildcard riders’ and changing track conditions resulted in a very interesting round 6 of the AMCA British Motocross Championship on Sunday. That decision to go in the opposite direction proved popular with the riders, making the going more technical and a little slower. Those ingredients also meant that battles raged right throughout the day in most classes and created several very close finishes!!
Read MoreAs the 2023 AMCA British Motocross Championship approaches round 6 at Long Lane, near Telford this coming Sunday, 30TH July, it’s certainly getting very close at the front end of some of the standings!

There’s another offering of European Championship motocross action at Lower Drayton in Staffordshire this coming Sunday, July 23rd as the Cannock MXC host the home round of the 2023 IMBA Open and MX2 series. And in an event proudly sponsored by FUS in conjunction with Marsh Powersports, Spiral GFX and Anja Potze Fine Jewellery Ltd, this IMBA will pioneer the first ever combined 450F/250F/2T moto’s. In a bid to boost start line numbers, this already appears to be a wise move with riders travelling to Lower Drayton from Belgium, Czech Republic, Germany, Holland and Switzerland to challenge a very strong GB contingent.

Read MoreThanks to some natural watering alongside organised dampening of the surface, the Lower Drayton track was in great shape as the Stafford MXC hosted the home round of the 2023 IMBA European Ladies motocross Championship on Sunday. Team Great Britain fielded a 14 strong line-up for the challenge ahead and what a super performance they were to produce. Wildcard entry Grace Richards was to be the top GB Lady with a fantastic podium spot in 3rd. Also bagging big top ten overall placings were Marni Saunders (5th), Kathryn Booth (8th), Leah Rees-Evans (9th) and Caitlin Newman (10th).
Read MoreThere’s European Championship motocross action this Sunday as the Stafford MXC host the home round of the 2023 IMBA Ladies MX series at Lower Drayton in Staffordshire. This will be the third in what is a four round series with action having already taken place in Holland and Austria. During the opening two rounds there’s been no participation from the Great Britain Ladies but they will be very determined to make amends as they compete on home soil!
Read MoreAgain, proving its immense popularity, the iconic Hawkstone Park attracted a deluge of wildcard entries as the AMCA staged round 5 of their 2023 British Motocross Championship on Sunday. Not only did those riders boost the start line numbers but also add plenty of extra spice to the racing on offer. However, those wildcards did not have it all their own way with some of the AMCA classes producing a story of very much ‘as you were’ and similar finishing positions to the already completed rounds!
