Yes folks this is the first one for 2003, just a short one in time for our first meet of the year and yes the website is up and running at last. Results will also be available on the site. Past scores etc will be posted as they get dug up from the archives where they still exist.


Thanks to Graham Maclachlan & DJ Du Plessis of Connix Office Automation for hosting and registering the domain and generally getting the connections connected!

Connix Link


Their support of MX and offroad motorsport in general is really appreciated!

Remember to pop into their shop at the Waterfront for your internet and PC needs.

We hope you all enjoy the day's racing and thanks to all the input from all concerned. From track prep to the catering, with so many club members involved it can only be a success.

Net jammer om te sien Meiring gaan nie kan deelneem nie, sterkte "rubberneck" en ons is bly om te sien hy is weer op die been... al is dit met krukke.

Ons is ook almal dankbaar dat sy beserings nie erger was nie, sy Valhelm en kit het hul werk deeglik gedoen.

Ek stel voor dat daardie deel van die jump Meiring's Dive herdoop word.
