The First Ride More Weekend | Success!
We’re still hyped as we wrap up the first-ever MXstore Ride More Weekend at Gap Creek Moto. It was a massive success with a sell-out crowd of over 700 attendees getting amongst the action, greater than we could have anticipated, so we want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who came out. A key goal of ours is to unite moto frothers from across Australia to build the community within our sport so we can all 'Ride More', that is exactly what we saw, the event's success was underscored by the vibrant atmosphere of community and sponsor support.

Ride More Village
The event overflowed with activities, entertainment started in the village on Friday night with the Show n Shine and continued into Saturday with entertainment featuring the Wild Wheelies training machines, MXstore's Spin to Win, free Stark Varg and Stacyc demo bikes, a range of trade stalls, delicious food, and drinks flowing from the Spangled Drongo brewery. Then to cap off some epic days of riding, we had nightly movies 'Being Evel' and 'Unchained' with popcorn thanks to Garage Entertainment and Stacyc.
Adrenaline filled the air as the day kicked off with a beautifully crisp morning overlooking Gap Creek's perfectly groomed tracks. The facility boasts something for everyone, from heart-pounding jumps to a flowy pit-bike track, or if you prefer to keep two wheels on the ground whilst challenging your skills, there are enduro trails too. The Ballards Group Enduro loop headed out to explore at 10 am, though they started with a dozen riders the group grew to more than twenty as they made their way through the kilometers of terrain!
Free Lessons With Dee's Moto!
Slotted throughout the daily schedule were free lessons from Dee's Moto Academy where riders worked on their technique, fundamental skills, style, and speed. If you missed out this time, stay tuned for our next event as the lessons filled up! On top of having a tonne of fun, riders took home some invaluable information to continue to hone their skills.
Corey Creed's Send It Show was insane. The Red Bull DJ truck lined the Next Level track to play some beats, building the atmosphere as the world best sent the huge tabletop jumps! The lineup included Harry Bink, Matty McFerran, Callum Shaw, Nick Broom, and Andy Van Zelm sending it to the moon and back with a range of massive whips, superman, and backflips keeping the crowd's eyes glued to the action from start to finish.
The Fun Never Ends
As we said, Ride More Weekend was packed with never-ending fun. Families and spectators enjoyed the action-packed spectacle, cheering on riders as they pushed their limits and conquered obstacles with skill and determination. Nick Broom and Mason Sleeter each took home a set of POD knee braces for winning their respective classes in the POD Rut Limbo, the custom-built track for the Terraforce Turns and SBS Go To Woah was also a huge hit. The smiles were ear to ear on the Pit Bike Track as riders went head to head in the 110cc Mini Racer Pit Bike Challenge. Withstanding the carnage, Jesse Hinter won the open class and Bentley Gordon stood triumphant in the juniors, each taking home a $300 Mini Racer x MXstore voucher! Back in the village the Another Legacy tug of war and Ogio gear bag racing finished the activities, then the movie and beers started flowing to end an epic day.
