Transmoto 8-Hour @ Wangaratta: Entries Open Tomorrow!

5 years ago | Photos: Robbie Warden, Donat O'Kelly

It’s time to dust off your camping gear, get your bike in order, round up your mates, and start making roadtrip plans for the inaugural Transmoto 8-Hour at Wangaratta, to be held on September 21-22, 2019.
In appreciation of their support, Transmoto Tribe members and previous event entrants have already been offered a 48-hour and 24-hour priority entry, respectively. But at 4pm AEST tomorrow, July 19, entries will go live to the public.

So round up your teammates’ details, make a date with your computer tomorrow arvo, and secure yourself a prized position in the inaugural running of the Transmoto 8-Hour at Wangaratta, powered by Husqvarna.

WHAT CLASSES ARE AVAILABLE?

There will be a limited number of entries for the Ironman and Pairs classes, and plenty of positions available for the Team (of either 3 or 4 riders) class. But don’t muck around because, with entries capped at 400, we expect the event to sell out fast. Plus, anyone entering this inaugural Transmoto 8-Hour at Wangaratta automatically goes in the running to win a 2020-model Husqvarna!

REMINDER: WHAT YOU NEED TO ENTER…

To ensure that entering is a simple process, the team captain will need to have the following information for all of their team members to complete the online entry:

  • Team name (for Pairs and Teams only)
  • Team category (for Teams only): Weekend Warriors, Mixed, Young Guns, Wise Wizards, Wonder Women, Open
  • Captain name and email address (for Pairs and Teams only)
  • Rider name(s)
  • Gender
  • Email address
  • Postal address
  • Mobile number
  • Date of birth and age
  • Motorcycle (make, model, year)
  • Do you have a current annual MA Licence? If ‘Yes’, provide current MA Licence number and expiry date. If ‘No’, $75 will be charged for each rider requiring a One Event Competition Licence (OECL), which will be added to the total entry fee.
  • Are you a current member of a MA-affiliated club? If ‘No’, $10 will be charged for each rider requiring a temporary club membership, which will be added to the total entry fee.
  • Do you have Ambulance Cover? (It is the rider’s responsibility to have current ambulance coverage to ride the event.)
  • T-Shirt size (for official event T-Shirt)

Remember that all Teams must enter under one of six ‘Team Categories’:

  • Weekend Warriors (no rider to have ever raced professionally);
  • Young Guns (all riders under 23);
  • Wise Wizards (average age of at least 50);
  • Mixed (at least one female rider);
  • Wonder Women (all female riders); or
  • Open (general team entry, if you’re not eligible for any of the above Categories).

Teams of 3 and Teams of 4 will be grouped together for the Class and Outright results, but entering in a relevant Team Category will increase your team’s chances of taking home a trophy.

ENTRY FEES

Entry fees for all 2019 Transmoto 8-Hour events remain unchanged from last year: $860 for a Team of 4, $675 for a Team of 3, $500 for Pairs, and $300 for Ironman.
