There is perhaps
nothing as scary or as thrilling at the same time as
achieving a land speed record on a motorcycle.
With no
chassis or panels to surround the rider, no padding, no
bumpers and no air bags, the adrenaline rush surely defies
description and, in the tradition of legendary Kiwi

weekend.
Helensville s Tommy Buxton won the opening
round of the Yamaha-sponsored series near Tokoroa two weeks
ago, but Yearbury and Oparau s James Scott both responded

New Zealand s elite
cross-country motorcycle racers will wrap up the 2021
national championship series in the South Island this
weekend.
It will be a huge double-header weekend this
Saturday and Sunday, with competitors tackling a course near
Balclutha on Saturday, followed by racing near Mosgiel on
Sunday, a sudden and potentially-explosive end to what has
been a thrilling competition.
