Venues for the 2016 MX Nationals, Australian Motocross Championship, have been revealed, confirming a diverse nationwide schedule on a variety of circuits for the new season.

A skeleton calendar was initially released in November, however it’s now official where the premier motocross series will be hosted in the highly-anticipated 10-round calendar.

Major changes for 2016 include the return to Western Australia at the mid-point of the year for round five in May, as well as a welcome comeback to Conondale in Queensland for round seven.

Wanneroo is the round to replace Raymond Terrace, NSW, this year, while the Conondale round’s return means that Coolum will revert to a single round only, once again as the championship finals.
