If you do not have a key but have a membership you can team up with someone that has a key to ride at the track, but the key holder must also be at the track. We ask that you please respect the club’s facilities and notify a committee member if you are aware of any suspicious activity or maintenance issues.

One Day License: If you know of someone that wants to come ride at the track but is not a member then this is what they will need. They must purchase a one-day license online and go with you to the track as you are the member with a key, if you do not have a key you will need to organise access to ride.

If they attend on race day, then they will need a one-day license to race + track fee on the day.

Volunteers:

Volunteers run this entire club. There are no paid positions. The committee work tirelessly behind the scenes, so you all have a track to ride and somewhere to come race with others.

We can not do it alone. This year we are asking you all to learn new roles. All the roles on race day needs volunteers. This year there will be a publicly viewable spreadsheet marked off when you have completed your two rounds of flagging.

During the membership process you will be asked to nominate two rounds of flagging day. This is YOUR responsibility to fill this position. Bring someone, pay someone, do it yourself. Without this we can NOT and will NOT run a race round.

We are always looking for people to Step up and learn new skill so others can pass on their skills and move on to different things. This maybe the last year for some so we don’t want them to leave and take all their knowledge with them. It may look hard but we will walk you through it.
