Three new venues for 2010 Maxxis ACU British Motocross Championship
Under: Maxxis Sport on
22 January 2010
With continuing Maxxis sponsorship and three
new circuits on the calendar, 2010 looks set to be a vintage year
for the Maxxis ACU British Motocross
Championship.
Little Silver near Exeter is the first of the new venues and
hosts the season opener at the end of February, while
Leicestershire's Mallory Park will stage a special double header on
March 21 - when motocross action will be coupled with a road
race. In August the series visits the legendary Farleigh
Castle in Wiltshire, a circuit that has not been used for around
ten years as a Maxxis Championship event and a
very welcome addition.
The provisional 2010 calendar for the Maxxis ACU British
Motocross Championship is:
|
Round 1
|
February 28
|
Little Silver, Exeter
|
|
Round 2
|

The new circuits are sure to provide special challenges that
will really test the skills of the field, as well as help to open
up the sport to a bigger audience, and all of the events will have
a supporting class of either MXY2 (Youth) Ladies or Veterans.
Maxxis is looking forward to another season of
close, exciting competition involving
Maxxis-sponsored teams and riders, while
spectators will get the chance to meet the Maxxis
Babes, who will be attending each round of the
Championship. Information, the girls' blogs and photos taken
with fans will be posted on their new website www.maxxisbabes.com.
