Racing is conducted on a “Hot Dog Circuit” with 2, 180 degree hairpin turns.
Please observe road rules whilst racing and respect other road users. Riders are asked to race without taking unnecessary risks (we have a good safety record at Beauie and we would like to preserve it). Please follow directions from officials before during and after the race.

All riders must have a current CA License and an Australian Standards Approved helmet.
Same model helmet without Australian Standards Approval will NOT be accepted.

Club or sanctioned CNSW kit is preferable to acknowledge sponsors within the sport. Plain kit is also OK.

Weather is a factor in conducting safe racing as our circuit has some tight turns to negotiate at the turnarounds. We will try and provide as advanced notice as possible via NSCC Facebook Page or Twitter.

Beaumont Road is a public road, and the club has both council and NSW Police approval to conduct this race.
At NO TIMES a CLOSED ROAD. Trained Traffic Controllers ensure the safe passage of vehicles whilst the race is in progress.
