The Royal Randfontein Stofskop, a fun motorcycle event for the whole family is scheduled to take place today, Saturday 7 September at the Randfontein Oval Raceway from 10am.
Organisers said whether people come to ride or support, the enthusiasm is bound to be infectious.
According to Chris Shelvey, Stofskop’s chief organiser, the Stofskop is perhaps South Africa’s most welcoming motorcycle event with the main entry requirement being that participants ‘run what you brung’.
“Stofskop is also famously relaxed and non-conformist, as befits an occasion when the flat, oval dirt track takes centre stage and the riding classes are designed to entice both hobby riders and die-hard enthusiasts.”
He said the bikes aren’t the only reason to come along and have fun in the sun – and in the dust.
“Between races, spectators can stroll among the food and craft beer vendors and check out the bike bits on sale. In addition to the dust and the smell of petrol, there’s a distinct craziness in the air.
This is an event where people can dress up, and no one really minds if you mess up. After all, it’s not about the winning but the taking part – and having the most fun along the way.
“Stofskop has always been a wonderful day out for the whole family. There really is no reason for people not to bring their kids along for a very different kind of family adventure.
Mercia Jansen, Motul Area Manager for Southern and Eastern Africa added, “Motul believes that motorcycling is a sport that should be open to more people, and we see supporting Stofskop as a wonderful way of attracting new fans to motorsports, and reviving the interest of people who’ve perhaps forgotten just how much they love motorcycling. At Motul, we’re always keen to partner with people who share our passion, and no one is more passionate than the riders and spectators who make Stofskop such a unique spectacle.”
Given that Stofskop attracts every kind of rider, spectators can look forward to seeing almost every kind of motorcycle in action.
