A New Beginning For British Youth Motocross
Stoneleigh Park, 3rd November 2011: RHL Activities Ltd and the Auto Cycle Union (ACU) are pleased to announce the brand new British Youth Nationals motocross series for 2012.
Over the last 20 years RHL has run and organised some of the biggest off-road events in the UK, including a number of British Grand Prix races and the famous RHL Beach Race at Weston-Super-Mare.
Taking on the organisation of the British Youth Nationals, which will replace the current BYMX series, will be a challenge, but RHL firmly believes the championship needs to return its focus to nurturing UK talent into future champions for years to come. The format for next year will remain largely the same, with the addition of a series for 50cc Auto riders.
“This will be one of our biggest challenges ever,” explained Gareth Hockey. “It is something we are very passionate about and it will lead us to create future British world champions and develop the sport in a positive and proactive manner."
"For the first year the series will run over six exciting rounds. With the current financial climate here in the UK we are conscious at cost so the aim is to keep people racing and build a solid platform over the next five years," concluded Hockey.
Every rider who signs up for the championship will be automatically enrolled into the RHL Academy, with access to a whole host of professional training and advice.
