Aus Junior MX Championships are back

After being cancelled for the past two years due to COVID-19, the KTM Australian Junior Motocross Championships (AJMX) are back in 2022, with the Rockhampton and District Motocross Club (RADMX) in central Queensland to host the event, which is scheduled for 27 September to 1 October, 2022.

“RADMX club are excited to host the 2022 KTM AJMX,” said Deb Dark, KTM AJMX Race Secretary. “It’s been a long journey: the club has been planning for three years and can’t wait to welcome the riders and their families to Rockhampton. 

“We’d urge people to like the ‘2022 KTM AJMX Championships – Rockhampton’ Facebook page to keep up to date with what’s happening for this event.”

Kyle Blunden, Motorsport Manager from KTM, added: “It's been three years in the making, and we can't wait to see the gates finally drop at the Rockhampton and District Motocross Club in September.

“The club has been doing an excellent job up there, and with consistent updates to their facility, it will put on a fantastic event.

“The KTM AJMX is such a great event that encapsulates what we all love about motorcycle sport. With the family atmosphere in the pits and fierce racing out on track, it's an excellent platform for future motocross stars to showcase their ability as they transition through the junior ranks.”

Peter Doyle, CEO of Motorcycling Australia, also extended his thanks to those who have been working through COVID interruptions and other challenges to bring this year’s AJMX to fruition.

“It’s been a while coming, and we’d like to thank those involved for their tireless efforts to get this event back on track,” Doyle said. “The club and KTM have done a terrific job ensuring the riders can hit the start gate in late September. I’d like to thank them on behalf of the riders and Motorcycling Australia.”
