PROTECTION

While we don’t like talking about it, people do fall off motorbikes on racetracks. MA requires all licence holders to have their own personal Ambulance subscription.

The best leather gloves you can afford will keep your digits intact if you’re sliding down the track and using your hands as brakes.

There’s a huge variety of suitable boots on display at any decent-sized motorcycle shop. Take the time to find a pair that fit properly without being too tight. Tight boots will ruin your day very quickly.

These may sound obvious but people still forget. Grab an esky and fill it with ice bricks and bottles of cold water. You’ll be amazed at just how easy it is to dehydrate while racing on a hot day.

Jones and Maxwell continued their battle for the first six laps, but chaos erupted on lap seven when the two riders made contact on the exit of Turn 4, causing Jones to tumble into retirement.

Taking advantage of the drama was Troy Herfoss, Josh Waters finished third ahead of Daniel Falzon; whose Honda again came on more strongly as the Matt Walters completed his impressive weekend with race progressed. After a thrilling last-lap duel in fifth place on his Kawasaki, while Glenn Allerton which the two riders repeatedly swapped places, it (BMW), Damon Rees (Honda), Alex Phillis (Suzuki), was ultimately Herfoss who prevailed by just 0.28s Lachlan Epis (Kawasaki) and Sloan Frost (Suzuki) at the finish. completed the top 10.
