An international rider line-up has been confirmed for the Manjimup 15,000 this year.

The historic WesTrac Manjimup 15,000 will be contested in Western Australia on 3-5 June, featuring an all-star international rider line-up to go head-to-head with a strong Australian contingent.

Once the richest motocross race in the country, the 2011 event is set to go off with a bang, according to event promoter Willie Thomson.

“Last year’s event was phenomenal to watch and this year we plan for the event to be even more spectacular,” Thomson explained.

“So far Jamie Law and Bryan McKenzie from the UK, along with 21-year-old Bryce Vallee from the U.S, are confirmed as competing in this year’s event.

“We are still in negotiation with other national and international competitors, and updates will be announced as these are confirmed.”

Adding to the line-up will be a strong contingent of Australian riders, including Jay Marmont, Matt Moss, Craig Anderson, Kade Mosig and New Zealand’s Michael Phillips, along with West Australian natives Michael Addison and Louis Calvin.
