Women's title will be decided at Nowra this weekend.

MX Nationals press release:

The Shoalhaven region in New South Wales is preparing to welcome back the MX Nationals, as the 2015 series makes it’s way north for the eighth round of this years championship.

With the chase for titles well and truly underway, round eight at Nowra is set to deliver local fans and spectators, with some of the most action packed racing of the season, when bikes hit the track this Sunday, August 2. MX Nationals series promoter Kevin Williams says he is looking forward to taking the series back to Nowra, and that the local community is already gearing up for a huge weekend of racing.

“We are very excited to be taking the MX Nationals back to Nowra this weekend, and with the way the track is designed, we are all going to be in for some great racing,” he said. “We have worked very closely with our stakeholders including the Shoalhaven Council, and Motorcycling NSW to ensure the success of round eight, and the venue is looking the best we have seen it.

“There are a number of MX Nationals riders who are from the Nowra area, so we should have a strong crowd of supporters on Sunday.”

In addition to the main classes of competition, Williams shared that round eight will also see the ladies return to the MX Nationals for the second time this year – with the final round of Yamaha Australian Women’s Championship being run and won this weekend.

“This weekend, the ladies of our sport will also have the opportunity to race for an Aussie title, when Nowra plays host to the final round of the Yamaha Australian Women’s Championship,” he said. “We are very pleased to have welcomed back the women to the MX Nationals this year, and to have the final round in Nowra is very exciting.

“Our ladies have done a fantastic job representing our country on the international stage this year, so it will be great for fans to have the opportunity to see some of our women compete on home soil. “Again, we have a good contingent of athletes including ladies from the Nowra region, so our whole MX Nationals field is looking to be very well supported this coming Sunday.”
