THE third annual Stofskop Dash in the Dust motorcycle event will see funky, super relaxed and crazy competitors battling it out on September 15.
The event will take place at Walkerville Showgrounds, Walkerville Oval (Speedway and Flat Track) and gates will open at 10am.
This event comes after Motul, a French company specialising in the formulation, production and distribution of high-tech engine lubricants, decided to partner with the organisers of Stofskop. The event will be all about adrenaline and slightly crazy competitors taking part with a funky, super-relaxed vibe and their wacky riding gear.
Adilia Joubert, one of the organisers, said all intrepid riders are invited to “run what you brung”, so Stofskop visitors can expect to see a wide variety of motorcycles on display and in action, from scooters to custom builds. In fact, anything goes, as long as it fits into one of the following categories: Inappropriate Road Bike, Moped Mash, Chops and Bobbers, Scrambler and Tracker, and Plastic Pigs.
“Riders wanting to pit their wits and their machines against each other and against the legendary dirt track at the home of the Walkerville Speedway Riders Club can email chris@stofskop.co.za before September 7. Race entry is just R330 per motorcycle. With the unofficial motto of the 2018 Stofskop event being “In Dust We Trust”, both riders and spectators are promised a day of entertainment and fast-paced action, with professional flat track and speedway rider demonstrations of how to master the dirt and a series of surprisingly unconventional races. Food, drink and other vendors will be contributing to the festival atmosphere, and each rider or spectator entry includes a ticket for the Walkerville Stofskop Grand Prize Draw,” explained Adilia.
For more information, you can visit the Stofskop website, the official Stofskop Facebook page or contact Adilia on 072 398 2525.
Stofskop is appealing to all motorcycle enthusiasts and families looking for something a little different to do. Spectator tickets are R20 at the gate and children under 12 get in for free.
