– Young: New Venue for Transmoto 8-Hour in July –
We’re fizzing to announce an all-new Transmoto 8-Hour event venue for 2021: Young, a township in the heartland of NSW’s South West Slopes region. Best known as the Cherry Capital of Australia, Young is also home to epic riding terrain. Plus it’s conveniently close to Sydney, Canberra and a host of townships in the central and southern regions of NSW. How good is that?!
The private property on which the 8-Hour is held features a huge, flat, elevated pit paddock with 360-degree views. And come July, 2021, it’ll also boast a freshly cut race loop through a mouth-watering combo of tree-lined singletrail, undulating grasstrack, and fast, flowing bush tracks.
Entries for this first ever running of the Transmoto 8-Hour at Young, powered by KTM, will go on sale from June 4, marking the third NSW-based Transmoto Enduro Event in 2021.
As always, Transmoto Tribe members and previous Transmoto event entrants will be offered a 48-hour and 24-hour priority entry into the 2021 Transmoto 8-Hour at Young, respectively, but check out the full schedule of on-sale dates below.
